In spite of a trip up from a couple miles down, it still seems to be
intact



Are you SURE that's coffee? It might have come from another source!


The cargo was going the wrong way for anything really interesting.
If this was coming from Colombia, I suppose I would be worried about
developing another bad habit but a pound should keep you going a
while. ;-)


Interesting. A pound. So many these days seem to be 12 oz bags.
