Review: I've been brewing this in my Aeropress for a while now, and it's become a favorite. this is a lovely coffee -- velvety smooth, slightly sweet, creamy flavor with perfect notes of brightness. it's not too dark, not too acidic, not too *anything.* deep without bitterness, crisp without too much acidity. very quaffable! medium roast, great packaging, no woody, dank or off-notes. the bag seals back up easily. check the roasting date when you get yours to make sure it's fresh (although I think the kinks have been ironed out here). grind right before brewing. I think you'll be happy.
Review: Ordered it on a whim, then read the reviews and wasn't sure what to think. The coffee arrived, the "best by" date is 4 months away, so.. not super fresh but not expired. Then I made a couple pots.. I love it! I'd give it an A, definitely. No complaints, wonder how much better it would be if it were fresh. I'm considering making it a go to favorite.

*by K***S on 10 October 2025*

I love this coffee. It is my go-to every single morning. The tasting notes of chocolate and marshmallow come through boldly. The pour from the portafilter is exceptional. I have one negative hence why I gave 4 stars. I have been buying this bean for 2 years. It seems once or twice a year it DOUBLES in price. I typically pay $11 per bag and get a 3pk bundle for $33 and tax USD. But several times I come to purchase my next supply and it's $19.99 a bag and $59.99 for a 3pk! That's insane- upsetting. I understand it can be supply and demand and the time of year- I suppose. But it's 6AM, I went to order my coffee and I'm not paying $20 for 11oz of beans. (mini rant over)
