Delicious.

Loved this one! So so good.
3/23/2025
Good all around. Froze well while I travelled, comparable to the signature series.

delicious

Loved it
1/18/2025
Nice flavor, very freshly roasted and arrived quickly!
1/16/2025
Great Brazilian sweet taste
2/18/2023
Solid but not our favorite. Chocolate was mild (which is good)
1/21/2023
Really tasty, thick and syrupy body with chocolate base and some nutty flavor. A little bit of complexity and spice as espresso.
10/19/2022
I couldn't figure out how to make a good cup with this bean. Always too thin, and a tad sour. I tried changing the grind size, water:coffee ratio (had it up to 12:1) but couldn't make it work. Not bad tasting, per se, just couldn't dial it in,
10/10/2022
standard
9/13/2022
Strong, good flavor
9/6/2022
No tangy after taste
9/4/2022
Strong flavor notes
8/29/2022
My coffee selection was sent to me NOt freshly roasted. Package had a sell date of 2/5/23. I would not order again.
8/13/2022
Very good!
7/22/2022
Too dark for me both for espresso and filter.
5/27/2022
Amazing
4/24/2022
It was ok.
2/20/2022
Definitely darker than most medium roasts. I agree with some reviews the roast overpowers the nutty chocolate flavor.
2/6/2022
Coffee was just sweet and aromatic enough, a distinct flavor that tastes great by itself with little sweetener needed.
3/22/2021
Favorite so far
1/17/2021
Not bad, but not my favorite.
11/15/2020
Very dark, more of a dark then medium roast in my opinion. Thick and velvety, works great in a French press with a chocolatey finish. Not as flavorful as I would like but very bold.
11/4/2020
Little too dark for my taste, felt like the flavor got lost in the roast.
10/19/2020
Very burnt/acidic
7/28/2020
The bag pictured is not the one I received, though the other information matches. The coffee has a slightly reddish hue when brewed that felt which was a pleasant surprise. It's slightly on the acidic side compared to other drip coffees I've had and almost has a banana-like taste to it. Quite good. Would order again.
7/6/2020
Quite nice, fantastic aromas; more of a 4 1/2 stars. Just the slightest hint of fruity/acidity. And flavor not quite as full and interesting as the aroma.
6/12/2020
Nice balanced cup
4/30/2020
Good. Nice body. Some batches came out lacking in complexity though. Not sure if it's the bean or the brew.
3/29/2020
Lacked flavor, had to boost number of scoops
3/13/2020
Great
1/24/2020
Great aroma, wonderful full flavor, excellent finish.
1/22/2020
Unique aromas
12/7/2019
i've really enjoyed this bean. It has a nice mild flavor which I enjoy in a cup of joe. I can certainly taste the flavor of roasted notes and a hint of chocolate. Overall, it's a really tasty coffee!
10/17/2019
Smooth and bold at the same time (MR); aromatic, not heavy or too strong (MD); buy again!
7/21/2019
My favorite coffee so far! Really enjoyed the subscription selection this month. Will order again.
7/13/2019
Smooth, easy to drink.
4/29/2019
Good balance of nutty, chocolate and tobacco. Not too bitter
4/26/2019
Prefer Med to Light roast beans, not dark and rich or full-bodied...these preferences are in my profile.
3/13/2019
A little darker than I'd like
2/15/2019
My least favorite by far.
2/8/2019
I enjoy the blend of chocolate and a nice hint of tobacco flavor notes. This has a richness and a nice body, but perhaps on the high side for me? This is a high 4 rating and could see coming back to something like this once in a while for its fullness and flavors.
1/24/2019
Loved this!!
11/10/2018
Hazelnuts, peanuts, chocolate, and a silky body - this made an exceptional cup. W ground course for most of the bag and brewed it with a Chemex using a modified technique. We would happily order this again.
11/2/2018
So good!
10/29/2018
We love this coffee! the notes of chocolate and roasted nuts are delicious. It was the perfect amount of boldness for us.
9/9/2018
Coffee was ok, seemed a little dry. Maybe something a little oilier next time.
9/6/2018
Aroma from the container was earthy, nutty, and of tobacco. Aroma was less strong after brewing. The taste was of cocoa powder up front but quickly faded into a strong nutty flavor. Tobacco then overwhelms the flavor profile and lingers on the the tongue. I think there is a slight acidic, bitter flavor that may come from the tobacco.
9/6/2018
Flavor was not as robust as we like. We like a really smooth and robust true coffee flavor. But we don't like a burnt taste, so don't like to get that flavor boost through dark roasting, rather from a really flavorful, smooth medium roast bean. Look forward to seeing how the next one tastes! Thanks!
9/1/2018
When I opened the bag, I really noticed the tobacco, then after being ground I could smell the chocolate. Both tastes work well and aren't too heavy. I couldn't detect the nutty flavor, but maybe with practice!. I really like the full body of this coffee, and it's very smooth. Lovely coffee for my first taste!
8/26/2018
Very good first coffee. I enjoyed the full bodied flavor to it. I love the aroma from the coffee as well. Taking down 1 star because it doesn't stand out as a "WOW" coffee in the total profile.
8/21/2018
Coffee was great, a little bit to chocolate flavored for me. Otherwise it was great to taste something unique compared to other coffees I have had before!
8/20/2018
This was a nice blend not too acidic which i like but a little light
8/17/2018
Definitely good. Would order again. Nothing made it truly special, just a good cup of coffee
8/13/2018
Very good!
8/12/2018
coffee was ok, still learning about what I like and dont like. I like something with a bolder flavor. Maybe not as full bodied as i dont love the tobacco flavor
8/11/2018
I liked it but there was something missing.I would get these really good toasty coffee flavors but they faded quickly. I am also still getting used to a new coffee pot so that might also be a factor.
8/6/2018
Nice, smooth, chocolatey coffe, but would love to try more interesting brews.
8/6/2018
Liked the chocolate undertones. Body and roast were good too.Not sure how I liked the roasted nut notes. Overall a really enjoyable cup
8/5/2018
rich & full bodied
8/4/2018
Different from what I am used to. Amazed by the nutty smell when I opened the bag. I learned to enjoy it more the longer I tried it and changed my brew methods (all Aeropress), but not my favorite.
8/1/2018
Loved the coffe, it was great
8/1/2018
Liked the medium body chocolatey notes, smooth and not too bitter
7/30/2018
Very good. Pretty much spot on for what I like.
7/30/2018
cant distinguish flavors as much
7/29/2018
It’s good - and flavorful. I enjoy it but it is a bit darker than my usual.
7/26/2018
I really like how smooth yet rich the flavor is. I would like to try something on the other side of the spectrum light and floral to see how they compare.
7/24/2018
Brewed with Aeropress and Behmor Brazen. Smooth and rich and satisfying.
7/23/2018
Nice and enjoyable cup of coffee, as described.
7/19/2018
Slightly bitter, but had tastes of chocolate, nuts, and is fully bodied. Perhaps slightly to dark for me
7/17/2018
This was a speck bitter with my usual brewing preferences, but brewed just a little weaker it has a really nice dark, nutty caramel note to it.
6/18/2018
Just average.
6/10/2018
The roast level was what we prefer.
I like the light mouthfeel and balanced cup, and I like the flavors that come out as it cools down, though none of the notes are particularly strong. The only note we're not crazy about is the tobacco.
Nevertheless, this is still an enjoyable roast and makes for an enjoyable cup of coffee!

6/5/2018
It's definitely earthy. I was concerned about the notes of tobacco because my experience is that I don't typically like that. I actually enjoyed it as a change of pace but couldn't drink it all the time.
5/30/2018
Muy agradable!
5/23/2018
I liked it! I wouldn't mind something a little different next time. I'm up for surprises!
5/15/2018
I thought it smelled wonderful but was a little disappointed that it was not as full bodied as the aroma suggested.
5/13/2018
Definitely earthy. I didn't get much of the nutty or chocolate notes from this - they seemed to be masked by bitterness. Shines when flash-cold brewed
5/13/2018
It was just okay. Not as good as many other coffees we drink but not terrible. Probably wouldn’t want it again.
5/10/2018
Not bad at all. Flavors are less forward than I'd like...meaning I taste after I swallow. I think I prefer a slightly lighter roast.
5/10/2018
Rich, full bodied, and smooth, but not overpowering. I would say it had the right mixture of a great coffee!
5/8/2018
Used a V60 to brew. The roasted nut flavor was really heavy and isn't really my thing. Got a bit of the chocolate; it was very subtle. Overall, a kind of toasty flavor dominated everything. Probably wouldn't select this again.
5/8/2018
I do love good coffee but I’m not an expert on describing it haha ... this one was okay but I can’t say I loved the flavor. It also made me shaky so perhaps the caffeine content was higher than I’m use to.
5/7/2018
Good but more on the mild side for my taste. Looking for something a little bolder
5/7/2018
Excellent choice. Great taste both warm and cold.
5/4/2018
This coffee was really yummy. Smooth and very drinkable. It wasn’t “challenging” to my palate, which is perfect for a morning cup of coffee.
4/29/2018
A little bit too dark and tobacco-y for me.
4/29/2018
We really liked this coffee!
4/29/2018
Gentle balanced flavored with smaller beans.
Excellent care with precise medium roasting.

4/23/2018
Not good for our Bunn Brewer. Coffee floats and overflows the basket. Good flavor.
4/23/2018
This coffee is great! Pleasantly smooth and rich. I have roaster close to home, but I have been wanting to branch out and explore more. I like fruity natural process coffees normally, but this is a stellar coffee!
4/22/2018
The coffee is smooth and mild. Would like to try something similar, but a little bit bolder.
4/22/2018
It was good, but nothing espectacular.
4/21/2018
Really like this one.
4/19/2018
It was rich and enjoyable. The coffee possessed a wonderful aroma.
4/17/2018
Real nice. Nutty, light coffee goodness.
4/16/2018
I think that Colectivo Brasil is not bold enough for me. Very tasteless.
4/13/2018
Good coffee! Really liked the flavor.
4/11/2018
Overall enjoyed the earthy flavors. Flavors were fairly subtle. Would like to try something a bit more bold.
4/10/2018
This Brazil coffee is great!! I like everything about it.
4/8/2018
Bitter
4/8/2018
Very smooth, great taste, I can definitely taste the chocolate, I like the fact that it’s not bitter and I can enjoy the coffee even after it’s cooled off a bit.
4/4/2018
We had to up our dose quite a bit to get anything interested out of it.
4/4/2018
I think I prefer a coffee with more acidity and tend to like more fruity, herbal flavors than the really strong dark chocolate I got from this. But it was still really good!
4/2/2018
REALLY GOOD! Smooth and not fruity, definitely nutty. I think I may like more nutty flavored coffee instead of fruity. If anyone is curious. I used a V60 with the Rao Technique (YouTube it).
3/30/2018
Good, maybe slightly too acidic
3/28/2018
Would like something slightly sweeter, and more complex.
3/27/2018
Loved this coffee. Different than anything I've tried before. Strong chocolate and (possibly) tobacco (never smoked but that's what the tasting notes said). Whatever that flavor is, I love it. Zero tangy acidity - even when it cools down. Very interesting. Zero burnt notes. Great first selection! Brewed in a V60.
3/27/2018
The caramel flavor really comes through in a french press. Very tasty!
3/24/2018
Full bodied. Very balanced. Instant dark chocolate and nut flavor with tobacco notes carrying through the finish.
Brewed using Ninja auto drip brewer using medium grind.

I typically go for a darker roast than this, but I found the medium roast of the Canarinho very smooth and enjoyable. I loved the chocolate notes, however, overall it was a little on the earthy side. I'm guessing the tobacco was the source of that. Perhaps the nuts were a little too toasty as well (though I do really enjoy a good nuttiness). I liked this coffee, but didn't love it.
3/21/2018
Definitely got a note of tobacco. Tasted better as it cools down. And there were hints of strawberry around the side of your mouth.
3/21/2018
Coffee is pretty decent. Definitely has a slight caramel vibe to it but felt a little light on mouthfeel. Would love to see more vibrancy come throughout it.
3/21/2018
Loved it but it was a bit too nutty for me.
3/19/2018
It's good but it's a little bit too acidic. Tastes good when I use it for iced lattes but I didn't like it straight from my aeropress.
3/17/2018
Excellent coffee. Well balanced.
3/15/2018
This was a very good coffee. Liked the full body and smooth finish.
3/13/2018
I didn’t get to try this one, but my husband liked it.
3/13/2018
The chocolate balanced nicely with a light cream.
3/12/2018
This coffee was amazing. Everything about the taste was strong, bold, and chocolately. Super winner!
3/12/2018
Very good. One of my favorites so far.
3/12/2018
It isnt' complex enough for my tastes.
3/11/2018
In both of our preparations via Aeropress and V60, the flavor felt flat and uninteresting where we weren't able to pick out any nuanced flavor notes like Counter Culture's Fast Forward, which we tried recently.
3/11/2018
Just wasn’t for me
3/8/2018
Very "clean" flavor without being overpowering; still enjoying the bag but certainly no negative feedback
3/6/2018
Good flavor, rich taste and mouthfeel.
3/6/2018
Relatively neutral, very round flavors. I appreciate the milk chocolate flavors and the body, but would personally prefer a bit more fruit flavor (citrus especially?). There is a hint of smoky tobacco, which is not really for me.
3/6/2018
I liked didn't love.
3/6/2018
I liked the coffee, but here is a little fine tuning using the guide you provided: The roast could have been a little bit darker, but not by much. The flavors were nice something a little less chocolately. The coffee was balanced and smooth which is how I like it. Hope this helps.
3/6/2018
The coffee is pretty good when it's very hot but as it cools off (maybe the last 1/3 cup) it starts taste more sour than I usually like. It also isn't quite as bold as I'm used to but I think I might actually prefer it this way.
3/5/2018
This was one of the first times where I could actually smell chocolate in the coffee. The flavor was delicious but the smell was amazing. Not sure if I overground the coffee but this was definitely on the bold side of the spectrum for me; I'd like to try lighter flavors moving forward, thanks!
3/5/2018
Not a big fan of nutty coffees. The coffee just smelled burnt when you would open the bag.
3/5/2018
There was a strange flavor, almost like a liqueur, that was unpleasant.
3/3/2018
We enjoyed this one. The nutty flavors were great. I would like to try something with fruity notes as well.
3/2/2018
So, this is pretty good. There is an under taste that is pretty mild that I'm not overly fond of. I have never quite known how to describe it, perhaps too green rather than ripe? Or is that the perfume? It is much stronger in many coffees and then it ruins the coffee. But as I said, pretty good. At a local coffee shop I like to order Malawi. They do a pour over and it is good. We have friends from Columbia who brought us back some Columbian coffee direct from their country. That was some of the very best we have had. Liked the really rich taste. Does this help?
2/27/2018
Worked out great on the V60 and French press
2/27/2018
Loved it! It did not seem to be as bitter as the charleston coffee I had been drinking. I enjoy the bitterness though , that is just one difference noticed.. I also seemed to notice some chocolate notes, which was nice.
2/26/2018
It could have been a little bit stronger...leaves a little bit of an aftertaste in your mouth that is quite dissatisfying. Not giving up hope though.
2/24/2018
Really enjoyed this!
2/21/2018
My wife and I didn't find the coffee to be "full bodied" as advertised. Rather, it was weaker than strong. We also didn't taste a distinct taste. In short, it was average—not bad but not memorable.
2/21/2018
Acidic. Preferred 2nd one more.
2/14/2018
Very smooth, a little lighter than I usually brew. So, perhaps a slightly darker roast next time.
2/13/2018
Good, very drinkable. I think the only criticism would be that comparable to the LaColombe - Corsica it was not as flavorful.
2/13/2018
This was not my favorite coffee. The taste was off for me.
2/13/2018
Tobacco notes were stronger than I expected, but also more pleasant than I expected. The nuts and chocolate notes were more subtle. The coffee had a great body to it, but I do crave something with a bit more nuance where I could taste more than one note easily.
2/13/2018
I found the taste very bland with almost no coffee flavor. I thought I wasn't using enough beans so ground extra beans but still nothing approaching a full bodied taste. A bit disappointing. Also the grounds were extremely dry with no hint of oil. Is that expected. I would like a coffee that is more full bodied for my next delivery please..
2/12/2018
Great coffee for aeropress, full bodied, great for that first and second cup in the morning. Used this in both aeropress and mokapot. The mokapot was too sour d/t increased water temp.
2/12/2018
Really good!
2/10/2018
Distinctly different from other coffee I have bought but I enjoyed it a lot! It was good to try a richer bean.
2/9/2018
Very even with no spikes. This is exactly what I asked for and it's a great morning coffee. It has helped me realize, however, that I may like fruit notes more than I realized.
2/9/2018
Good a little light
2/9/2018
I'm enjoying this coffee, but i think I'd prefer something darker. Before signing up for MistoBox, I always bought a dark roast from a local roaster. Not sure why I selected Medium roast as my preference!
2/8/2018
Lacking some smoothness - a little acidic in the finish. Not organic.
2/6/2018
The notes of tobacco really stood out to me, but I didn't particularly like the taste. I'm usually a fan of Ethiopian coffees and am always looking to try something new, but I just couldn't bring myself to like this.
2/6/2018
Very smooth, accessible coffee. I like the roast level, and the chocolatey notes were nice. Overall, I'm enjoying it, although I wouldn't mind trying something with a little more fruitiness and a little less nuttiness in my next batch. If you want to pick a coffee that is starkly different so I can really compare differences, I'm open to it! Then I will try to combine my favorite aspects of each to better hone my palate. Thanks!
2/5/2018
I had mostly had dark roast coffees before this, and I was surprised by how flavorful a cup of coffee could be!
1/31/2018
Did not like the smokey notes in the beans.
1/30/2018
An excellent start. Maybe a little too full bodied for my morning cup. The notes were rich and deep, but I like a brighter finish in the morning. Brewed it with both French Press and Chemex, and liked the latter better. Maybe something with more citrus overtones next time?
1/29/2018
First impression was spot-on with the description: nutty chocolate with full body – bordering on smokey. The roast was maybe just the slightest bit too dark for me, which I'm attributing the faint smokey-ness to(?).
I like the overall full-bodied smoothness though; it's not sharp or acrid. However, I'm kinda craving a just a little more citrus or sour, but I still like the roundness of the full body. It's just that faint smoke I'm not fond of.

1/29/2018
I'd prefer a lighter roast, it was a little too dark for me. But I really enjoyed the chocolate notes and the nuttiness. It grew on me a lot.
1/29/2018
It was really good actually. I could definitely taste the chocolate nuttiness when using my V60. I was not expecting to like it as much as I did but it was great!
1/29/2018
It was a heavier than I anticipated. I can definitely taste the choc/nutty notes but would like a more flavorful and mid-bodied next time.
1/28/2018
Enjoyed the notes and had the nice flavor balance. Also found it slightly acidic, but could be due to brewing process. (chemex)
1/28/2018
I found this coffee to be a bit watery, not full bodied. I even adjusted the golden ratio, increasing the amount of coffee to water, and it was still feeling a bit thin. I can see where the roaster was going with the chocolate and nutty notes, but I don't think they got there. While it's not a terrible coffee, it's not something I would want to drink every day.
1/27/2018
More robust flavors, prefer less tobacco notes and more chocolate. Like full bodied, even more is good.
1/24/2018
It's really good maybe a touch too light. Would prefer maybe a bit more intense flavor.
1/24/2018
I'm not great at coffee notes but I really did enjoy this roast. Went well with a sweet breakfast and made my morning routine super pleasant. I'm excited to see what Connor has in store next!
1/22/2018
Great tasting coffee! Seemed slightly acidic (perhaps due to our brewing method) but great other than that.
1/22/2018
Very fine cup of coffee, chocolate front with nutty finish.
1/22/2018
Was not fond of the slight tobacco-y taste but otherwise found it very enjoyable.
1/22/2018
Nice roast, slightly acidic, mild Chocolate notes. Would purchase again.
1/21/2018
Brewed with both Chemex and French Press. Found it hard to get the flavor. Also, I prefer darker roasted coffees.
1/21/2018
A little light bodied and thin tasting.
Drinking all coffees with either French press or Chemex drip, so only tried with very course grind. Ok, but not my favorite.

1/21/2018
Solid cup of coffee. Smells like Cheerios post-grind. Smells like a chocolate covered nut once brewed. Smooth, full flavor. Perfectly complements a glazed donut.
1/20/2018
Really enjoyed. Smooth, made nice cold brew. Notes of chocolate and almond.
1/20/2018
If there were more of a rating system, I'd really like to give this a 4.5 because it's unfair to state that it was extremely enjoyable, but mildly good. The notes were perfect, you are able to pick up a hint of acidity in this one as you swallow to enjoy this breath.
1/19/2018
Really liked this coffee. I was skeptical--I thought it might be bitter and maybe too "chocolate" in flavor but I found it to be smooth. Even my husband-who doesn't drink coffee at all-commented that it smelled amazing!
1/19/2018
Almost sour, but with a nice rounded counterpart. Yeah, nutty I guess, which was nice. Wanted a deeper, more robust flavor.
1/18/2018
Pretty great! Love the chocolate notes. A couple brews in the chemex turned out tasting a little more like a dark roast and a tad ashy, but that might have been my error. Otherwise pretty great!
1/17/2018
Pretty good, very smooth. I like that it lacks an acidic taste, but I think I'm used to and more drawn to stronger and richer flavors than this roast.
1/17/2018
Loved the flavor and notes. Thanks!
1/16/2018
This is a very good coffee. I don't really have the vocabulary to describe it, but I like the lightness of the roast.
1/15/2018
Pretty good, the flavors were a good match. There is a little more acidy that I can feel in my stomach that I could do without. The caffeine level also was noticeably higher than my usual beans.
1/15/2018
Huge fan of this coffee! I like how to is medium roast/body but with unique flavor. And it smells amazing.
1/15/2018
Really tasty as a hot pour-over. Fell short of a good cold-steeped coffee, though. Would definitely get this again, but would only drink it hot.
1/15/2018
Ok, but milder flavor than I like
1/14/2018
Definitely a nice departure from the Brazilian coffees I typically drink. The coffee roaster/shop I work for frequently carries two Brazilian's - a Conquista & Juliana - and while carrying the same earthy, nutty flavors I dig, the thicker body of the Canarinho carries the flavors exceptionally.
1/14/2018
My first impression was that it was a smooth drinkable coffee with nothing really remarkable or memorable in terms of flavor. Just a nice everyday cup.
1/14/2018
I am enjoying the coffee, I like that it is low in acidity, but prefer something that may be roasted just a little bit longer, To give it that slightly stronger taste
1/14/2018
It has a nice flavor, but is not a coffee i will choose again. It has a bitter finish and the tobacco hints strike me as unpleasant. The acidity level was good.
1/13/2018
It was a little weak to me. So I had to use more coffee. But the flavor was good.
1/12/2018
Really nice coffee! Heavy flavor and really nice smell. I'd be interested in trying a lighter roast next time just for contrast / to help me discover what I like. Thanks for the pick :)

I’m still developing my palate. There was a smokiness, as best as I can describe it, that overtook any other notes. I think it’s a taste I can acquire, but it was unexpected. Otherwise a smooth cup.

I didn't really like this coffee very much. I think the roast was a bit darker than I prefer and it was a bit more full bodied than I prefer (even though I usually think of myself as enjoying full bodied coffee). It had a kind of strong almost burnt flavor, which I don't prefer. I think I tend to prefer more nuanced coffee's w/ more floral and or citrusy notes, although I have had other coffees that are described as chocolately that I've liked. Hope this helps.

I loved this cofffee. I'd love to try something similar that maybe has a less nutty body the next time around. I think I want a coffee that is overall smooth with lots of nuanced flavors. I'm still not certain what my ideal coffee profile is, but hoping to figure it our through this process!
1/10/2018
medium mouthfeel, nutty, balanced. low acidity (which i like). Interested in a little more vibrancy.
roast profile was good (medium).

I love the smell of this coffee! The bean color is perfect and it tastes good to me. I prefer the chocolate notes over the nutty notes of the coffee. My husband loves this!
1/10/2018
It was a good coffee! It definitely leaned darker than I would have preferred. I did get a fair amount of the chocolate/nutty flavors, but maybe would prefer a more interesting profile. It was really tasty though.
1/9/2018
awesome flavor a top tier coffee
1/9/2018
We like a more stronger coffee. This coffee was okay and we will use it but, for instance, I have recently bought from Oren's coffee, Papua New Guinea, or we like Illy coffee. Can you please adjust our remaining order according. Thank you.
1/9/2018
i prefer more floral notes. it was a good, basic coffee, but didn't blow me away.
1/9/2018
Very smooth
1/8/2018
This coffee was really solid, especially in a French press—I loved the chocolatey, nutty flavors. However at the moment I’d like to try more of the bright + complex flavors found in lighter roasts.
1/8/2018
We loved this one too!
1/7/2018
A little too light for me.
1/7/2018
Beans were extremely dry. Coffee was far too light. More like a blonde than a full body medium to dark roast.
1/6/2018
Very pleasant, albeit one-dimensional coffee. Better as Aeropress than pourover. Would probably also be nice as espresso given the full-bodied richness. Would prefer coffees with more complexity/subtlety.
1/6/2018
Roast was too dark for my taste - also couldn't really taste the chocolate notes- I think I would like a brighter tasting coffee
1/4/2018
It was ok...to me this tasted about the same as what I would buy at the grocery store. It wasn’t bad, it just didn’t seem “special” to me.
1/3/2018
Very solid overall. Would prefer a darker roast with bolder flavor. I do like the earthiness of this roast
1/2/2018
was delicious. enjoyed the chocolate flavor. Would like to try a lighter roast and maybe a bit smoother
1/2/2018
I can afford to be snootily discriminating now, because there've been and still are so many superb beans. These are excellent, but not quite as favorite as others.
1/2/2018
Good. Like a little brighter, citrus-y flavor, but this was pretty solid.
1/2/2018
I liked it but it has a hint of tobacco in terms of smell and taste which I don't love but it was mild enough for me to enjoy.
1/1/2018
This coffee is smooth and tasty. I like that it is low in acidity. I definitely like the roast level on it, but am curious to try something a little on the darker side.
1/1/2018
The coffe was good and very drinkable although seemed “regular”. I would like to try something with more flavor.
Thank You
Thank You

I loved this coffee- love the full body, extremely low bitterness, smooth chocolate notes. Excellent!
12/31/2017
I'm usually not a fan of South American coffees, but this one had some of the complex flavors of African coffees though not as fruity.
12/31/2017
Pretty bold which I liked. Nutty flavor was more present than chocolate. Overall it’s not my favorite coffee I’ve ever had but it makes a good cup.
12/31/2017
A little to mild, we like strong dark coffe like eight o’clock brand
12/31/2017
Very bold not a favorite of mine. I like the lighter flavors. The fruity and chocolate notes are good though
12/31/2017
Don’t love Brazilian coffee. Prefer coffees from Costa Rica, Ecuador, Jamaica, Hawaii.
Not sure what they have in common.

It had a boldness to it, and wasn't bad, but I like more acidic fruity coffees (I thought I mentioned that in my notes when I signed up), so this wasn't really to my liking.
12/30/2017
Great first bag! I liked this roast and full flavor of the coffee. Especially enjoyed that it had chocolate notes without being overpowering
12/29/2017
A little lighter than I'm used to, but it brought out some of the more subtler notes! My burr grinder definitely thanked me for the lack of oils on the beans.
12/29/2017
Need to mess with the brew a bit, but so far it tastes a bit too nutty and dark for my taste, perhaps a bit muddy, although not in a bad way. I think I'd prefer a lighter roast
12/28/2017
We were thrilled to receive our first order and to see that you had sent something with chocolate notes and low acidity. The bag arrived unsealed (no vacuum seal) and only crimped closed. Not sure if that is standard. The beans have a lovely aroma but the once brewed seemed to have a metallic aftertaste. We will try another coffee-water-steeping time combination but initial reaction was we would not order this again.
12/27/2017
Didn't love it.
12/25/2017
Very tasty coffee! Really liked the chocolate notes in this roast. Definitely want to try a bolder brew next time. I like my coffee intense :)
12/23/2017
The aroma from the whole beans on just magnificent and only gets better after grinding them up. I used the French press as my brewing method. The bloom yielded an amazing smoky aroma, but all the aroma died down once the brew began.
The nutty and tobacco notes really came through in the brew, but I got little in the ways of chocolate.
All in all, this coffee is very enjoyable and I will be buying it again.

So good!
12/20/2017
Notes were almost too chocolatey for me, but fantastic aroma.
12/19/2017
An incredibly smooth coffee with a fantastic nutty smell! I couldn't really pick up on the chocolate or tobacco, but it was still very pleasant to drink. Great for those calm mornings. I do wish it had more of a "kick" to it though.
12/17/2017
Love it. Very fresh and not too acidic. Love the chocolatey taste. Tried it with Bonavita drip machine and with Aeropress. Tasted best with Aeropress.
12/16/2017
Love this coffee!
12/15/2017
Great, well-rounded coffee with a pleasant roasty feel.
12/15/2017
This coffee was fine, but I'm a little surprised that you decided to send me a coffee with chocolate as the first tasting note when in my profile i indicated that chocolate was a flavor I didn't like in my coffee. What are you using to make these suggestions?
12/14/2017
12/13/2017
Didn’t taste the greatest. We felt it was a bit bitter and tasted burnt.
12/13/2017
I really enjoyed this blend, was impressed by the amount of flavor in the brew. I'm still fairly new to home brew coffee and was unable to differentiate the nodes of flavors mentioned on the packaging, but it was delicious none the less.
12/13/2017
it is pretty good. smooth. not too robust or complicated.
12/12/2017
Sent coffee preferences prior to our first coffee. Basically this coffee was everything we don't look for in a cup: heavy chocolate notes, tobacco, heavy body.
12/11/2017
I liked this coffee! It was not acidic or bitter to me. I could taste the roasted nuts. However, I have to admit that my taste buds are not sophisticated enough to detect the notes of chocolate or tobacco. This was a smooth cup and I am looking forward to enjoying the rest of the bag!
12/9/2017
Excellent
12/7/2017
The notes were spot-on! I was impressed with how smooth it was. Great stuff!
12/6/2017
High acid for my belly and forgettable flavor. Not much complexity. Need to have a couple more cups but first impression was meh.
12/6/2017
I liked this coffee a lot. Not bitter at all. I like the slight sourness (is this the citrus note). Tasted fresh and bright. I’d like to try thi coffee again in a few weeks. I really liked it, but have now tasted more coffees to compare with. I think I would raise this to a 5.
12/5/2017
Really like this coffee. In fact besides a coffee from Bird Rock Roasters from Panama roasted out in San Diego this is possibly my second favorite I’ve had. I was big fan of how it had great flavor without the over bearing dark or charred taste so many roasts have. I lean towards a light to medium roast and I’m not sure where this fell on that spectrum but I liked it.
Thanks for picking this one. Keep it up.
PS I’m from Tulsa and I really don’t like anything Topeka roasts so please don’t send anything from them. Everything from them just tastes burnt to me.

I thought the coffee tasted exactly as the notes described. However I did get a little sweetness in the coffee as iced. Raisin notes. A hint.
12/3/2017
The chocolate and nutty flavor really come through. I had to adjust my ratios from what I usually use, as I found it pretty strong and heavy bodied, but with some alterations found this to be really nice.
11/30/2017
I would drink this again. I tasted more caramel than chocolate and since i don't like a lot of acidity this made for a great cup of late morning to afternoon coffee.
11/28/2017
Ok-maybe a little too nutty?
11/25/2017
I enjoyed how full bodied it was without being over powering and the chocolate notes.
11/24/2017
super flavorful! very well balanced!
11/22/2017
Starts off sweet and chocolatey but finishes a little earthy.
11/22/2017
This cup is definitely a departure from most of the Brazilian coffees I've tried in the past, and I'm not sure in a good way. There is an earthy, tobacco flavor that immediately hits your palate, with a bit of a smoky, charred undertone. Any hint of chocolate is subtle at best and unable to pop through the overpowering tobacco notes. The cup is lacking in sweetness or acidity to balance things out. Unfortunately, one of my least favorite coffees from Mistobox to date.
11/19/2017
Absolutely love this coffee. Full bodied, and a nice smooth flavor.
11/18/2017
Very enjoyable for my taste!
9/27/2017
Couldn't really notice anything remarkable about this coffee.
4/19/2017
Another MistoBox Hit!
4/5/2017
Super peanut-ty, and not in a good way.
3/22/2017
Absolutely amazing!
3/19/2017
Burnt flavor. Not a fan. Aftertaste isn't horrible, though.
2/28/2017
I brewed in a Clever Dripper. This coffee seemed rather dark (full-bodied). I tried a shorter brew time, but it still tasted really heavy.
2/24/2017
could be stronger
2/23/2017
Really enjoyed the smoothness of this coffee! Not acidic at all! And great black, or with a splash of half and half.
2/13/2017
Edit: I've bought another bag of this from the roaster and I think it may be my favorite bean EVER!!
Used cold brew for the first cup. I might add a few more beans to tomorrow's cup (or less water). The nutty/tobacco flavors are definitely prominent and surprisingly delicious! I normally don't like nutty flavors... well, mainly I just hate hazelnut. And the low acidity in this cup is right up my alley! I'll try pour over this weekend to see how this changes the flavors.
