Hey guys, so some of you might have heard of Gegrond. I know several members have tasted their coffee before and can testify to its quality. It really is very good. It's the only coffee I drink at home now. I struck a deal with the owner and decided to start selling this coffee on Carbonite (actively advertising now).

Now, because this is on Carbonite, we have a coupon code. Use code #Carb05 for 5% off on all orders. Of course, the free shipping still counts as well on orders over R1,000. To make the deal a bit sweeter as well, we're also launching a Mother's Day Special:

Spoil your mother this Mother’s Day with something that will warm her heart as much as you do! Our Mother’s Day package contains:
500g of our home baked rusks
250g Colombian Arabica medium roast
250g Tanzanian Arabica dark roast

Show her you love her, give her the joy of freshly roasted coffee!

Personalize your gift by typing a letter to your mother in our delivery instructions box and we will put it on a card for you. The package comes in a Gegrond branded box, and costs R170. Order yours here: Mother's Day Special - Gegrond

Yes, there is still time. Orders placed soon enough might just make it to you in time, if you still need something for mother's day (or for yourself). The coffee is great, the rusks are great, we got a permit to trade (because we all know coffee is essential) so everything is good to go!
 
I hope you have a resellers subscription. Joking.

Order placed, hopes it still gets to Roodepoort on time. I see the sites says order needs to be placed on Tuesday already.
 
Buuuump! These go great in my espresso machine, and they grind pretty easily, to be honest. I've had hard-grinding beans before but these aren't it. Tastes like proper barista coffee even with my cheapy machine!
 
And up to the top for coffee!
 
Man I could use some good coffee right now. Wait, I have some in the cupboard! BRB.

I have to say, the wife is quite picky about her coffee and she said this was very nice. Very fine beans for her espresso machine. She actually started using less powder here to get the same taste and indirectly the packet would last longer.
 
You're lucky. Mine goes quicker, because it's much nicer than others in the price class. I kill a bag quick quick. But then again I do 2 to 3 shots espresso per cup for myself...
 
Bump! A lekker hot cuppa is great during these cold days...
 
Awesome, thanks for the support guys! It seems like this is starting to sloooowly pick up speed now, which is great news for everyone involved.
 
Just brew my first cup.... DAMN!!!! THIS IS SOME GOOD QUALITY $)(T This is definitely going on my top 5 coffee suppliers.

@Toxxyc thanx
 
You're welcome mate. I'm getting more and more positive feedback on this. It's gooooood and people are starting to realize it.

PS: It's so good because it's so fresh. Unless you know a microroaster in your area, I can promise you you won't find fresher coffee elsewhere. The stuff I get is usually delivered within a few days of roasting, and not weeks, which is what makes the massive difference.
 
Bump! There's a Fathers' Day special on their site, guys, just FYI. Not too late to score one for your dad!
 
Have placed an order to try it out. Going for the Tanzanian medium roast espresso grind. Will be brewed in Aeropress and /or mokka pot. If I like it (probably will), I will spread the word and order more :)
 
Rusks are great. Trust me, they don't last!
 
This coffee is FANTASTIC!!! I just placed my third order for the month. I've learnt that the 250g bags do not last, so ordering 1KG this time.
Unfortunately I missed the Fathers day special, so had to sign up for newsletter as as well.
 
Bump! Remember to use #Carb05 for 5% of your order!
 
And bump! This is STILL going guys! Coffee, one of the last legal things in South Africa!
 
Bump! Gegrond was rated as some of the best beans in the country this week, just FYI guys.
