Review: Extremely delicious and I’m picky - This is such an excellent coffee with lower acidity, so it doesn’t bother my stomach and lots of flavor! I wish it was easier to find more places locally!
Review: delicious - 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.

### ⭐ Lacks flavor
*by J***. on July 16, 2025*

I'll preface this review by saying I'm not a coffee connoisseur but I do very much enjoy a good cup of coffee. I was really disappointed with these beans. The beans are really dull and do not have any flavor or smell to them. After I grind my coffee, and before I throw the grinds away, I usually smell them and these lack that great coffee aroma.
