I would probably go with Agaro. Stone fruit, citrus, florals. I find it to be a soft, balanced, and juicy coffee. Like I mentioned before, It's one of those I just don't get tired of.

Thanks. Ordered a large bag of the Agaro along with a few others to try. Will report back!

Cool, I'm interested to hear how you like them!

Agaro is excellent once it's had 2 (maybe even 3) weeks to rest. Passengers do well with extended rest times. I didn't bother with it for espresso, but as a drip/pour over, once it's in it's sweet spot of rest time it's a real winner, the meyer lemon note is particularly delicious.

What others did you order?

I think you might enjoy the Jose Salazar. The passionfruit and peach notes were right on for me; really nice brightness and a pleasant, zippy tartness that was noticeable but not at all overbearing. The Luz Angel Reygoso was really nice too, I think Passenger does a great job finding interesting Colombian lots.

I tried the Kenyan (Kamavindi AA) today, 8 days post roast. Really, really nice coffee. Has me excited to crack into the others soon.

I have had a Passenger 1 bag per month (4 weeks) subscription for a few months. So far, I have enjoyed all coffees and it is a savings. I did a prepaid, that got a small discount, so it less than $20 a bag delivered, and lately I have received coffees that would have been $25+ plus shipping ordered separately.

Passenger coffees are fantastic. As has been said, they're on the lighter side and do very well for pourover. They're a little more finicky as espresso with their really light roasts, but still good once dialed in.

I've now had all three coffees. All are good and offer a positive/pleasant experience. The standout of the three for me is the Kenyan. The Agaro and Divino Niño are good but don't really stand out from what I get locally (George Howell). The Kamavindi was a step above. I don't normally buy GH Kenyans due to their premium price so this coffee from Passenger definitely provides value for money (IMHO). Will order more!
