Recently I have been discussing gap between exporter sample quality and landed quality with several coffee people and nobody gives the same answer. Some treat it as small detail, some say it changes the whole workflow. I am not looking for textbook reply. I want to know whether gap between exporter sample quality and landed quality gives meaningful difference once you repeat it over many cycles.

Would you keep gap between exporter sample quality and landed quality in your normal process, or only for specific coffees and situations?
