Keeping positive for you, Stan. That would be fantastic indeed!!!! Do they have any aroma? Coffee scented?

Nothing right now Kate. In the distant past I have tried the bean and it tasted kind of onion like. Might have been still not ripe enough. We will find out with this one.

Soon you’ll have thousands of coffee cherries. I used to get thousands of coffee cherries off my 8’ tall coffee tree. The first fruit set is always smaller. My tree used to bloom twice a year.

How do the coffee cherries taste? My coffee cherries were very sweet.

When they’re dark red is when they taste the sweetest.
