Yes as a retail roaster it’s hard to lug around a 60 kilo bag but that’s a standard size for many reasons. Reducing the weight of the bag would incur twice the effort and therefore cost of movement , storage , more jute etc. Not practical.
Yes verification of country of origin is always the golden grail in the coffee world but again very difficult to achieve. She’s still a newbee with 15 years experience and should know better coming from a producing area. A buff piece in Roast .
