Full Flavor and low acid
I lived on a coffee farm in Kenya for over 10 years. If you like quality coffee it must be arabica variety, not robusta. Kenya coffee is grown at high altitude, generally over 7,000 feet above sea level. Arabica coffee is bold in flavor but not bitter. Growing arabica coffee is very labor intensive and the beans must be hand picked at just the right time. These coffee trees are pruned and often grow under larger shade trees. I sometimes purchase coffee from Tanzania which is called peaberry. It is also an excellent coffee. It is hit and miss to find Kenya coffee in supermarkets. But it is always available from Amazon at a reasonable price.

Good Value Whole Bean Lighter Roast
More of a medium roast flavor profile and chocholatey vs a lighter roast flavor profile. I brewed with pour over V60 and clever dripper and I found that pour over was slightly more defined. Overall not a bad coffee on a budget. Its a safe intro to lighter roast if you want to show others what the difference is between big brand roasts and specialty roasts. Though I know this is not “specialty” perse. It is still a good enough alternative to keep on hand for those days you just want a good medium roast.

Stale coffee beans
Beans were over 6 months past roast date. Didn’t have much aroma or taste and zero fruity notes. Not worth the money. Also much darker than a light roast.

Excellent coffee
We are enjoying this very much. Nice rich smooth flavor. My only concern is if it has mold in it or not? Most all coffee has mold in it. If this doesn’t, I highly recommend drinking it

Rico rico
El olor me encantÃ³ cuando lo abrÃ, como acabado de tostar. Lo molÃ y lo hice y es una delicia, vale decir en mi reseÃ±a que soy cubana y que tomo cafÃ© espresso, aunque me gusta el cafÃ© americano pero prefiero mi taza de cafÃ© oscuro, unas veces menos fuerte sin llenar el gorro ni apretarlo para sentir el gusto sin amargo. Depende mucho tambiÃ©n del grosor que le des cuando lo mueles, mientras mÃ¡s fino mÃ¡s fuerte se va a sentir. De cualquier modo es un excelente sabor a cafÃ©, al menos este envÃo, espero liver a comprar. Le he enviado uno a mi hermana de regalo porque sÃ© que le encantarÃ¡.Gracias Amazon

Great dark roast flavor
I like dark roast coffee and I hand grind the beans. I’ve tried a few different dark roast coffees on Amazon. I also occasionally buy whole beans from a local shop that roasts their own beans. The local shop is expensive but it’s good. Of the several brands that I’ve bought on Amazon, I’ve only really liked 2 of them. This is the one that I’m going to stick with. Not too expensive and decent taste.

Great, Dark, Deep, Bold, Rich FLAVOR–90% of the time the beans are beautifully oily!
My wife and I love this coffee. Hers with milk, mine straight up.Great, Dark, Deep, Bold, Rich FLAVOR–90% of the time the beans are beautifully oily!One of our favorite things, a few times each week, is cracking open this back and seeing, very dark (not light brown, not medium brown), oily rich beans… and smelling the heaven coming out of these coffee beans.It’s rare, but once in a while, a bag if these beans will be dry, not oily. That’s life. It’s worth it for all the times they are oily and full flavored.Sometimes when we’re out we’ll try a new (expensive) brand of “French Roast,” only to open the bag and discover DRY LIGHT brown beans. WHAT? FRENCH Roast beans should almost be black brown… and NEVER DRY.

Very Good Coffees for the Most Part
I truly enjoyed both these choices for light roast. The only I didn’t like, was, Seller sent both packages, that expire in 2 weeks. I’m going to assume this coffee is older, and by that I mean it was roasted a year ago. Mine were both vacumn sealed, THANK GOD, or the flavor would have been LONG gone. A very good value for your money, for sure. Not too acidic. And the tasting notes are spot on. I would Def purchase again, I just wish there was a way to request some that isn’t about to expire. These were both indeed light roast, and the beans were perfectly roasted.
