Peet’s Major Dickason’s Blend Dark Roast Coffee is the roast that put Peet’s Coffee on the map. A loyal customer of our original Berkeley store, retired army sergeant Key Dickason, brought the idea for our most beloved blend to Mr. Peet in 1969. Intrigued, our founder worked with the local gourmand and coffee aficionado to refine it. They sampled countless combinations before arriving at what is now our all-time bestseller. The result was so good, Alfred Peet decided naming it after his friend wasn’t enough. Dickason’s rich, complex blend also deserved a promotion from sergeant to major. Major Dickason’s combines the best origin coffees from the world’s premier growing regions, each imparting its distinctive regional characteristics while still effortlessly rounding into a smooth, balanced cup. Over the years, it has become the coffee that epitomizes Peet’s: flavorful, deeply roasted, and unsurpassingly satisfying. But for us, “Major D” is just like a relationship with an old friend. We’ll always remember it as the story of a customer’s passion, an expert’s palate, and a shared love of coffee.

Fresh and flavorful, best of many Iâve tried using French press
I have purchased many different brands of coffee including several of Starbucks. When I took the advice of a friend to try Peetâs Whole Bean dark roast i finally found the perfect coffee. Very fresh every time , true coffee flavor, price is right, smells fantastic too. Try it, youâll like it.

Among my favorites.
I’ve returned to drip coffee at home. Whole beans, too.Pods are convenient, and the pod version of this blend coffee is okay. But grinding whole beans and making a fresh pot is so much better and more satisfying than any pod. I recently got a burr grinder (Oxo) and a drop maker (Braun).This blend was recommended to me years ago from a friend whose child from the West Coast raved about it. It was not readily available here at first, so he used to get it shipped to the East Coast. Now you see this brand in a lot of places. It is reliable.For those of us who like a dark and strong roast, this one is really satisfying. It is bold but not bitter. I’ve tried it in a French press and it was excellent. Now I am using a drip regularly. The Braun maker has a ‘gold’ setting that is rated/approved by a ‘specialty coffee association’. A combination of factors like water-to-coffee ratio, brewing temperature and brewing time – is supposed to brew an ideal cup. Whatever the specific details, I use that gold setting and attempt to measure properly – and the results are consistently very, very satisfying. Guests have commented, too.Major Dickason’s blend whole bean is a regular, go-to variety for me now.Pete’s French Roast is also very nice, but I like the Major even better.If you like a bold and strong brew, this should make you happy.

Best coffee ever! âï¸
Grind these beans fine and use the Melita brewing method for the richest, most satisfying coffee experience you’ve ever had in your life.

Great
Accidentally ordered beans quite some time ago. So I thought I’d give it a try and ordered a grinder. Was the best mistake I ever made. This is really good coffee.

Coffee in the morning, coffee in the evening, coffee at suppertime…can you tell I love coffee??? Peet’s is a backup brand for me.

Freshly ground whole bean is the best!
This is the best tasting coffee!I grind Maj Dickason’s fresh every day & then prep a pour over cup. The result is a full spectrum of sweet & bitter highlights.*Since the whole bean is rarely available in stores, my solution is subscribe.
