Very good!

JoAnne
Delicious coffee.
12/5/2022

Jon
Or bad for a Colombia
9/3/2022

Steven
Good and fruity like I like them but a little TOO fruity, lost the "coffee" taste. Also, when I selected this coffee I was looking for single source and this is purchased from a Collective of many different farmers who pool their beans together.
6/29/2022

Edward
Ground in half the time of usual bean, due to over-roasting or who knows what. Could never get a clean pull. No fruit. First bad bag.
5/21/2022

Tyler
Caramel, citrus, and juicy
1/10/2022

David
One of my favorites so far. Just really good all around no matter which brewing method used
10/4/2021

Andrew
This coffee has wonderful almond and caramel notes running through it, but then lightens up on the finish with perfect balanced acidity and fruit. A terrific balance you'd come to expect from a blend in a single origin.
12/7/2020

Lucy
Fantastic! Love the caramel notes
10/31/2020

Matt
Too bold and biter for me.
8/17/2020

Patrick
Outstanding - very bright and big flavor
8/9/2020

Kristina
The citrus is noticeable as a slight acidy tang. Very nice on cold days.
5/15/2020

Sean
Great coffee. Lots of flavor.
2/9/2020

Lori
Too strong in acid, but good quality
9/25/2019

Geoffrey
Very tasty coffee. Would love to see a bit of chocolate vibe but still a great cup nevertheless
6/27/2019

Ted
Dislike the taste.
5/25/2019

David
Great smooth, balanced and nice Colombian roast with a juicy, caramel and suggestion of citrus as in the tasting notes.
1/31/2019

Josh
A good coffee but it does not meet my qualifications as a daily drinker. Tastes a bit watered down (I used the same measurements and methods as the La Pena). I prefer something more full bodied. The acidity was just right, not too bitter. This is definitely one of the better Colombian coffees I've had. The flavor is too sweet/citrus-y for me, it gives the coffee a watered-down flavor that I do not appreciate. I prefer a coffee that will strangle my taste buds with a rich flavor. Even with all that said, it's still a decent coffee.
1/21/2019

Susie
Excellent flavor and one of my favorites Very nice
1/17/2019

John
This is my least favorite so far. I do enjoy it, but less so. It seems to have a darker, grittier, earthy flavor. Almost heavy. However, still some interesting flavors and nuances that maybe a different brewing method would better highlight.
1/5/2019

Jason
Not a fan. It tasted bitter, strong, and chewy.
1/3/2019

Colin
Very smooth and balanced. Great cup o joe. Slight hints of lime
12/27/2018

Habeen
Somewhat of a disappointing roast; couldn't extract many exciting notes at all from both my Aeropress and Chemex.
10/7/2018

Daniel
I really enjoyed this pick - it had lighter citrus notes which I really like!
9/3/2018

Nasser
perfect selection of beans and great roast

picked up notes of bergamot and smoke that stand out after its citrus notes in the beginning. wonderful body and great taste at varying temperatures.
8/25/2018

Nina
Super striking citrus! My first thoughts on this when brewed in a press was that perhaps the citrusy, almost sour notes were not for me. But recently switching to a pour over method, these beans lent themselves to an enjoyable cup with very bright flavors of lemon & lime that wake me up
8/21/2018

joel
Mild and a little bland, Could be sour at times. Not incredibly complex
8/16/2018

Patrick
Caramel sounds great, juicy sounds great, citrus could be tolerable. However, the "citrus" is more like "someone brewed a vitamin C tablet" and the intense acidity completely obliterates any potential subtleties the coffee may have. Someone kind might call it tangy, acidic, or citrus. There's no balance here whatsoever.
8/13/2018

Evan
When I smelled the beans I got sort of a toasty, almost coconut aroma on a long inhale. Tasting notes: high acid, brown sugar maybe? I am new to tasting coffees. I haven't been able to detect floral or citrus notes really. It is very enjoyable though
8/13/2018

Luke
Overall I really enjoyed this coffee. It had a unique taste profile which was new to me. It tasted fresh and clean. I think something with a little less citrus note would be preferred. Id also be open to something with the same or a bit darker roast. Being new to tasting coffees that aren't store bought off the shelf im still exploring and very open to different options.
8/9/2018

Adi
A little bitter but overall very good.
8/5/2018

Calley
Really good! Very smooth.
7/25/2018

Jayson
Delicate and delicious coffee. Found that I need to brew strong for best flavor since the roast is light.
7/16/2018

Bryan
Decent but I didn’t find much in the way of nuances on my tongue. Perhaps too dark a roast for me?
7/15/2018

Shouta
24g - 408g 1:17 ratio
medium-fine grind
45s bloom, continuous pour on hario v60
ET: 3:30

Aroma is nutty, with slight sweetness

Taste is quite acidic, and bright. Any sweetness found in the aroma was lost in taste. This roast was a bit of a challenge to get right, from bean to cup. Took me about 4 attempts on grind settings to adjust for proper extraction time, and found the coffee to be acidic and slightly sour no matter what I did.

Overall, it's an okay cup of coffee, and is great to wake yourself up in the morning with, but not an everyday coffee for me due to the sourness of the cup.
7/15/2018

Trent
I enjoyed the citrus flavor and I got a little of the caramel but I am not sure how juicy related in terms of flavor. Yet. My wife said hers was a little sour but I am not sure I agree.

We just moved over to the Espro Press P7 today and the same bean with the same grind was much nicer than yesterdays cup with our older french press. I also noticed a huge difference in trying a different grin setting with the Baratza 586 Baratza Virtuoso Coffee Grinder we just bought. We are also weighing all of our beans and water with our Hario V60 Drip Scale and Timer. I started stirring the coffee with the water at the one minute mark so I am refining my process as best I can to isolate the flavor of the bean.

Over I enjoyed the bean very much and am ready to experience the next one. We are watching the show 'Dangerous Grounds" to learn about the country of origin and what to expect. This process with the show we are watching makes this much more exciting and meaningful.

Please continue to take us on this journey. Thank you.

Tanner
-Okay acidity
- slightly floral, very citrusy aroma
-tasted a little like toasted corn flakes, with a hint of citrus. Very slight dark chocolate flavor as well.
-overall not my favorite, but still made a decent cup. Tried pour over method, as well as French press.
7/12/2018

Eric
Hario V60, 92C brew temp, 45-50s bloom, 3 minute total brew time. 1:15 ratio. Filter was rinsed and carafe was heated prior to brewing.

First cupping was too coarse (2.11 on an aergrind, 15s to fully drain V60 at the end) leading to an underextracted cup. Citus (orange mostly for me) was very pronounced.

2nd cupping was closer to ideal (2.7 on aergrind, 25s drain time). Still was citrus forward but was able to pick out some burnt sugar and toasted cocoa. Flavors quickly devolved 2-3 minutes after brewing and settled at slightly sour with a cocoa finish.
6/23/2018

Katie
Loved it! Great Flavor!
6/13/2018

Jason
Good but too bitter and not rich enough.
6/11/2018

Kamil
Excellent, unique flavor!
6/6/2018

Kellen
Didn't enjoy it.
6/4/2018

Blake
Great coffee!
6/1/2018

Sean
Favorite so far. Roast level is good. The juicy tasting note rounded it out well.
5/27/2018

John
Just returned from Hawaii and my coffee was waiting my return. Had three cups thus far. Overall it is a very good coffee with all the notes revealed. When I grind my beans (per cup) do you suggest a fine or coarse grind? How much coffee should be used for each 6-7 oz cup?
I think my next batch should be a bit stronger as I drink my first cup at around 7am. I also have a cup in the PM around 7pm.
5/22/2018

Gregory A
This is a decent coffee. It is definitely more acidic, and you can get notes of citrus. The citrus can be enhanced by doing an iced pour over brew. While there were notes of citrus it was somewhat flat other than that.
5/18/2018

John
This coffee is pretty underwhelming. The bean has a nice fragrance, however once brewed, it is hard to avoid it tasting bitter, even when adjusting brew ratios and methods. It is not terrible tasting, but it is not very desirable. The bold taste covers up any chance of tasting citrus or juiciness as the description says.
5/13/2018

Sarah
It was a good coffee. A bit citrusy, but delicious flavor. We made this in both the drip & Chemex, and both turned out great.
5/8/2018

Borzoo
Slightly sour which i didnt like
5/2/2018

Natalie
smooth and simple. Like it!
4/24/2018

Samuel
Wasn’t bad but wasn’t great.
4/23/2018

Victor
Good roast but more reminiscent of a blend. No real distinguishing tasting notes.
4/20/2018

Jacob
Strong citrus notes with bright acidity. Caramel was there, but faded fairly quickly. Finish was a bit short.
4/20/2018

Christopher
Overall positive - a balanced, unoffensive palette cleanser. I drink it black first and then decide whether I want to add the occasional milk. I enjoyed the level of acidity, not too sour or pungent, and thought it was countered nicely by a broad toasty sweetness. Could be a contender for a solid daily driver. I didn't feel it was that citrusy though. I blended it 50-50 with a medium-dark roast single origin indonesian and found that to be the best with milk.
4/11/2018

James
Definitely got caramel, citrus and juicy. A little malt also. A little thin for me in general, but even that is a nice change sometimes.
4/4/2018

Kendall
I would rate this one more like 3.5. It was alright but the flavor profile fell kind of flat.
4/1/2018

Kate Noelle
I like this one a lot! Right up my alley. Not too acidic, not too flowery, balanced, and the light/medium roast is real nice. Thanks!
3/28/2018

Ryan
Does not have a lot of body, too much acid.
3/28/2018

Casey
Didn'tc have the flavor strength i thought it would. Not bad but probably not my first choice if i was to pick. Not a big caramel fan.
3/23/2018

Ben
This was okay. Lacking a little bit on flavor and a little thin. Too much citrus flavor without anything to cut it.
3/18/2018

Christopher
The flavor of this coffee was very good. I did find the citrus flavors over powering though. I tend to lean towards more earthy and bold flavors similar to Sumatra coffee.
3/14/2018

Alexander
This certainly met all the notes it claimed to have! I was impressed! Not to mention it came in a pretty cool bag.
3/14/2018

Steven
Had a hard time brewing this one just right. Went to a friend's Cafe and his pour over ended up a little better.
3/14/2018

Odanis
So the coffee was probably good but I failed to take into account that my preference is actually strong flavored coffee, like espresso strong coffee. I think I need to change my preference to espresso type coffee. Now that I've tried this one, I realize the ones i need to recieve are strong espresso type bags. I would also like for them to be international as well. Would those type of coffee's be available?
3/13/2018

Frank
Very tasty, smooth, mild. Generally like a bit brighter or pungent flavor. More earthy, citrus, juicy. All the same, just more.
3/8/2018

Anatoliy
Too acidic
3/5/2018

Nicholas
Would like a slightly darker coffee
3/2/2018

Jeffrey
OK, but not my favorite because it is pretty tart and light in body. I'm new coffee (hence joining club to get some exposure). I guess I like darker roast than this? I usually get the baridi blend from Peets which I like, but figure I can do better. So next time please look for fruity, but not citrusy, fuller bodied, but not too roast. Thanks.
~JF
2/25/2018

Christopher
First off, this is incredibly better than anything I've had out of a store. It got 4/5 probably just out of preference. 5/5 on the normal brewing method (coffee Maker), 4/5 on the Chemex. Citrus was good, roast was good. Ready to try something else!
2/19/2018

Chris
This coffee was alright, but it wasn’t terribly exciting or memorable. I found it worked best for me at a 1:15 ratio with water heated around 195 F.
Overall, I enjoyed a cup when I managed to brew it right. It took me a bit longer to dial in my brew technique with this one, which probably negatively affected my review.
2/17/2018

Nick
It was good, tasted like the small batch coffee I get from trader joe's. One of the better coffees' i've had was the whole bean coffee from Amor perfecto, the antioquia batch if that helps. Maybe something with a stronger flavor would be better, just guessing, without brewing with more beans. I'm not really sure how to be helpful here. Thank you
2/15/2018

Chance
I loved the notes of sweet citrus and caramel, but one of the things that stood out the most was the tartness and the acidic feel. Definitely a more unique light roast.
2/15/2018

Daniel
Nothing particularly exciting about this coffee. It was good, but nothing special. definitely tasted the citrus, but not to much else.
2/12/2018

John
Really good coffee. I totally enjoyed this but I really like the coffees where the flavor slaps you in the face!
2/10/2018

Paul
Good cup, citrusy and balanced.
2/8/2018

Don
It is good, but just a little light. Maybe a little darker roast would be better.
2/3/2018

Tarik
This is a nice, straight-ahead coffee. Balanced, mild flavor. I like it, but it's a little boring. I'd love to try something a little more unusual - surprise me! :-)
2/1/2018

Chris
This is a little brighter/sharper than I'm used to drinking. Not necessarily in a bad way - the fruit profile is very tasty! - but I think I might enjoy this a little more in the summer when its warm outside (It was 19 degrees on my ride into work this morning so I could've used something a little bolder!
1/31/2018

Sean
Very nice, lighter roast than I usually go with, but balanced, very light and fruity.
1/30/2018

Ashley
Great acidity, nice citrusy after notes.
1/29/2018

Andrew
I was not a fan of the citrusy and sour flavor profile of this coffee.

When smelling the beans and grinding the beans had a great roasty aroma, which I was looking forward to, but unfortunately did not translate to the cup. The sour (my least favorite) taste was too prominent.

Iinadjisted my brewing to ensure that it was not under extracted, but after three cups (twice with Chemex, with adjustments, and once with aeropress) the sour taste was still too prominent
1/22/2018

Andrew
nice taste, but it seemed a bit mellow for what i normally would like.
1/21/2018

David
Nice acidity. Citrus notes come through well. Perfect roast darkness. I'd prefer something that might have more chocolate or nutty notes.
12/29/2017

Alice
Too light and too much citrus for our taste. Prefer something less citrus and more full bodied.
12/28/2017

Brennan
It seemed to have more of slight sour taste. I’m not sure if that’s from the acidity? I like something that has more coffee flavor and not as fruity.
12/27/2017

Patrick
Really enjoyed it. More of a weekend coffee or a spring coffee. Personally like something darker and stronger in the winter.
12/26/2017

Corey
Very satisfying. Brewed it via french press and drip coffee maker, and both ways were delicious. Coffee was rich and flavorful. My general taste tends to vary between light and medium roasts. I was very satisfied with this coffee and would definitely reorder in the future.
12/24/2017

Ali
The most important quality in coffee, for me, is balance. This was balanced, from first sip to last. Excellent coffee.
12/17/2017

Addy
I was hoping to have my new coffeemaker in time to really give a good review, but it seems to be lost in the ups universe.

I love that this coffee has such a smooth mouthfeel. I can’t really pick out any strong flavor characteristics, but I do like the level of roast- it’s not bitter or overly bold. Not much of an aroma, however.

Update: got my new coffeemaker and immediately brewed a cup. Still love the smooth mouthfeel of this coffee. I taste a bit of caramel on the front, which I like, but there is not much follow through.
12/13/2017

Andrew
Did not like this coffee at all! Apparently, I'm less of a fan of brighter coffees than I thought, but moving forward, let's aim for smoother instead. This one tasted sour. (Smelled heavenly, though, which was a real tease).
12/8/2017

Thomas
I'm really enjoying this one! It has a very smooth quality to it. Although I'm generally wary of light roast / citrusy / juicy coffee, this one definitely works for me. I guess I'm more open minded than I thought. Keep em' coming!
12/5/2017

Fritz
Thought this was fairly light, maybe I need to brew it stronger. I'd prefer something more robust than delicate next time if that'd work. Thanks!
12/3/2017

Howard
While I enjoyed the coffee and liked the fact that there seemed to be varied flavors I could taste, I found it to be too 'citrusy' for me. I'm also not quite sure how to describe it, but is seemed to be too acidy or 'sharp', almost a little sour to me. I think I might prefer a bit of a darker roast with deeper 'coffee' flavor. This is the first time I am trying to describe coffee in words and appreciate the opportunity to have my picks tailored by you!
12/2/2017

Ashley
Too light for my liking.
11/27/2017

Erick
Light body, fruity accents, freest aroma!
11/18/2017

Matt
Just ok. A little too acidic. Didn’t like the finish on it
10/31/2017

Jonathon
On chemex I can't seem to make this POP. An inverted aeropress has better results but I don't get a lot of the brightness or juiciness I was anticipating. This does have a subtle sweet round flavor of graham cracker at the front that is quite tasty but it is fleeting. Overall I am finding it to be less vibrant than I was expecting.
10/8/2017

Jack
Smooth with a good taste but on the weak side.
7/3/2017

Amy
Love it! Just enough zest without being overwhelming.
6/23/2017

Alexander
Excellent fruity flavor and delicious aroma
6/6/2017

Morgan
It probably lived up to it's flavor profile, but it was so heavy on the citrus/acidity side I just couldn't enjoy it.n
5/3/2017

John
Too Light. Sour
3/7/2017

Sherwin
Very very light. Not bad as a general beverage but not something I want when I want coffee. Other than that, it's good. Just way too easy to drink and need a lot for a decent kick caffeine kick.
3/6/2017

Josh
Coffee was very flat. It had a clean taste but no finish. This would be something I would not try again. I ended up making it into cold brew.
3/1/2017

Will
One of the best coffee aromas I have ever experienced, in the bag and in the cup. Lighter roast but full body. The Colombia taste I have had before but I very much enjoyed this coffee. Brewed with chemex.
2/23/2017

Evan
This was my last coffee before I requested something more full-bodied and earthy. This wasn't as acidic as the last, but still a feel I didn't prefer. Even though I haven't really enjoyed the last two, I feel like I am figuring out what I really want! Awesome in that sense!
2/21/2017

Kristen & Jason
I enjoyed the Colombia Paso Fino more than the Dillanos - I think the earthiness of the prior coffee was a little too much for? I didn't think I would like much acidity, but I enjoyed this level in the Paso Fino, and I didn't find it bitter, which I liked. The beans were lighter than I typically use, but the flavor was still rich and full.
2/7/2017

Richard
A light roast in the cup. Not my favorite style.
1/23/2017

Ridwan
Has a puncturing, sweet brightness, followed by a mellow aftertaste. Flavors feel a bit muddled, but the contrast is very dicernable. A nicely balanced cup
1/4/2017

Emily
Great - loved the citrus notes and richness.
