This was a fantastic coffee; brighter than expected given the notes, but also balanced. Really enjoyed it.

This was one of the best coffees I've had. It was light, juicy, and had a nice acidity. Some notes of apple and toffee.
10/17/2023
excellent complex flavor
10/14/2023
Not exciting. The apple tasting note is aggressive. More like tart. Couldn't get the toffee notes.
10/11/2023
A little too dark / bitter for my liking
10/7/2023
The freshness of the roast is ideal, coffee gassed a lot during brewing. Milk chocolate and toffee sweetness didn't come through for me in pour overs.

The first time ever with my wife has told me she could smell the coffee in the bedroom and she thought it smelled wonderful. It was great.

Pretty mellow with slight chocolatey flavor and a little brightness that I guess is the apple note that is advertised. I like that I got a light roast this time around, and would like another light roast with maybe a bit more fruitiness?
8/10/2023
Appreciated the more savory, darker notes. More chocolatey, nutty. I think that this style works really well in lattes. I mostly used it for iced lattes and it was good. Also great as straight espresso.
7/26/2023
Smooth, slightly fruity. Very good as cold brew. Usually prefer more fruit forward beans
7/16/2023
Just "meh". Reminded me of the coffe I'd get at gas stations long ago, kind of a "muddy" taste.
6/28/2023
It was fine, just didn't stand out to me. I just tend to like lighter roasts with more acidity and juiciness.
6/23/2023
made a really good espresso in the 9barista... i think
6/7/2023
Smooth and full flavor
6/4/2023
Great bag of coffee definitely visiting this place next time I'm in Idaho
5/20/2023
Not sure if we didn’t brew well but didn’t really pick up on any of the tasting notes or find much going on :/

This coffee was a nice brew. You could subtly taste the apple toffee flavors. The flavors melded together nicely and were not overbearing.

Very versatile bean! Makes VERY good lattes. Plays more like a medium than a light roast, but still able to make solid lungo and ristretto espresso with it.

Nice, but a little on the thin side for me.
3/28/2023
We thought this bag was okay. Not a lot of nuanced flavors there, but I could detect more complexity when done on pour over.
3/20/2023
For being a bit more bitter this was incredibly flavorful.
3/3/2023
Tasted like tobacco
3/2/2023
This was soooooo good! Idk how to speak that next level coffee speak, but this coffee was just amazing. All I added was a little bit of milk because the natural flavor was enough, no sugar needed.
2/27/2023
I could taste the toffee and chocolate notes really well. Enjoyed this flavor!
2/22/2023
Thought this was a bit darker then my liking. Chocolate notes overwhelmed any of the more delicate fruited flavors.
2/16/2023
A little less complex to us vs. the first two
1/18/2023
Kinda run of the mill medium roast. A little more toasty and not as fruity or floral as I prefer.
1/7/2023
Not my favorite. I didn't feel bright or deep enough. With a 16:1 brew it felt really thin and watery with a graham crackery taste
1/5/2023
A bit bitter for our taste
1/1/2023
Gets better and better with each sip. I typically drink light roasts, but really enjoyed this. Apple up front followed by dark chocolate and nuts on the finish.
12/1/2022
Really enjoyed this coffee, and so did my guests.
11/25/2022
One of my all time favorites
10/19/2022
Pretty ok. Honestly sort of bitter
10/9/2022
Really enjoyed the flavor profile of this one.
9/24/2022
Great daily driver. The milk chocolate notes are definitely the most prominent.
9/22/2022
Somewhat underwhelming, got stale quickly because the bag didn't seal properly. Decent cup but nothing special. Had a nice fruity undertone but nothing came forward to stand out.
9/21/2022
This one grew on me.
9/11/2022
Again. Love. I cancelled because I don't like the idea of the shipment of coffees then I drank more of this and yum yum yum
8/31/2022
I prefer light roasts but a medium was recommended. It's got a very roasty flavor profile without crossing over into burnt. Apple up front with a long bitter finish. Not for me, but good coffee.
8/31/2022
Good flavor and consistent extraction via espresso brew method. I could definitely taste the apple tart in the acidity which was pleasant as an Americano, straight shot or in milk drinks
8/26/2022
loved it
7/21/2022
7/17/2022
Dank & dark, flat
6/23/2022
Very good with chemex
5/22/2022
A bit sweet
5/17/2022
Will order more! Delicious! Thank you for finding such good beans.
5/4/2022
Loved it. Smooth, rich, nutty.
4/26/2022
Not a fan. The beans seem not fully roasted.
3/28/2022
Preferred as drip rather than espresso. A little lighter body than I prefer.
3/28/2022
Delicious. The flavor layers really build if you brew it right.
2/6/2022
One of my favorites
1/15/2022
Very light - good coffee for later in the day
1/4/2022
Great for a pot of coffee or pour over. Turns out bland for a chemex brew however.
1/4/2022
Was very mild, good for my taste. I would like to try something like that but just a little bit richer.
I’m not familiar with the flavor notes described. I can’t taste citrus, cherry, oak, etc. but I do like a nutty finishing taste. Is that a thing? I just drink Dunkin’ Donuts Original blend and am happy with it, but have had better
tasting coffees and was hoping to find one I would like a lot.
Thanks,
Harry

We absolutely loved this one!
12/23/2021
A very nice coffee that reflects the tasting notes. It didn't really stand out in the field though!
12/11/2021
Too roasted
12/9/2021
The coffee was OK, but the beans were roasted pretty inconsistently. There were lots are beans that were dark roasted.
12/8/2021
I have had better guatemala coffee's this one was just not my cup of tea
12/2/2021
Another really great Guatemala! I placed Re-order! Rich aroma and great balance.
11/22/2021
Great representative of Huehuetenango.
9/10/2020
Good... but I have had better.
7/9/2020
lauren liked a tad more than ben but basically a 3 star
7/8/2020
A little bland / watery. Sweet and slightly chocolatey.
Opened up more in the V60 compared to aeropress. Relaxed sweetness.

We love this coffee. My boyfriend says it takes like chocolate milk, so smooth, absolutely no bitterness or sourness.
6/14/2020
Medium body, very smooth. Apple flavor very forward but not overpowering.
6/14/2020
It's hard for me to describe why I like certain roasters, but I know which ones I like. It's one of the best we've ever received.
5/23/2020
I loved this coffee, I found it juicy and sweet.
4/25/2020
Well-balanced bright and sweet cup! This coffee leads with a burst of light apple-like acidity, before easing into a caramel, toffee sweetness.
4/7/2020
Love this one!
