Java Planet Organic, Sumatra Single Origin Dark Roast, Smooth Full Flavored Organic Coffee Beans, Low Acid, Whole Bean Coffee 1LB BagUSDA Organic

First time trying this brand--Organic Sumatra Dark Roast whole bean. A few months ago I stopped buying the Sumatra organic and Sumatra non-organic varieties from another roaster when, although initially very good, it became increasingly bitter, both varieties, and they had a problem with their one way valves in the bag (not sure if that was the real problem). So I hadn't ordered from them for a few months and was using Illy Intenso. I decided to try this Sumatra. At the same time I ordered one more bag from the previous seller, hoping they fixed their problems, but the Sumatra dark roast from that company was even worse than before--extremely bitter. I just threw that bag away not even bothering with them. But the Java Planet Organic Sumatra is excellent , and even though it's sold through a third-party shipped by Amazon, it was about four days fresher roast date than the bitter one I ordered direct from the other roaster. (I inadvertently gave a little hint in my last sentence as to who that is)). I will order this again, after I use up the three cans of Illy Intenso Dark Roast which I had been drinking, and bought as insurance when trying the Sumatra again.

Husband enjoyed this coffee very much.This is one of several brands recommended by Cornell bird center - also know for Merlin and eBird phone aps.This coffee comes in many flavors, and is grown as an understory plant in an ecosystem, instead of as a monocrop.The ecosystem supports many species, including birds.

I've started buying this coffee about 6 months ago and have absolutely loved it. I now buy the 5lb bags.I love the low acidity and the taste.

I really like this coffee, but you only get a small bag and it’s a high price. I don’t know if I will buy it again because of this, but it is good.

I didn't buy this because it's bird friendly, organic, low acid etc.....Those are just bonuses.I had this coffee at a friend's house and it was just delicious.I'm somewhat of a coffee snob so I don't mind spending extra on good stuff.This is one of my favorites. If you considering this then the answer is, YES it is worth every penny.

Great flavor for a decaf!

Taste was rich, but if you have two people in your home and each drinking 1 cup a day, this will only last about 10-14 days.

My favorite coffee! Amazing taste!
