We made using filter drip method, but this isn't our favorite. It is nice, but it is a bit too bitter for perfection. The notes do pull through nicely.

Not rich enough, tastes like mc donalds meets hipster.
3/5/2023
This has a softer lighter taste. Also I feel like they over roasted the beans. The beans crack in the grinder instead of grinding like a good coffee bean.
2/22/2023
This at least smells like a dark roast but still lacks a full bodies dark appearance and flavor. It leaves an after-taste that's difficult to describe - maybe "semi-sweet" or "metallic" if that's a description. It's better than the previous two selections but is still not a dark roast in my view.

The toffee undertone is what puts it over the top relative to a lot of the richer and darker coffees.
2/17/2023
Strong & full nutty end flavor, but the front taste is flat and weak. Seemed medium and not dark at all. Too acidic for our preferences.
1/28/2023
Good. Not quite great, but close. Smooth and not bitter. But borderline bland.
12/23/2022
though labeled as a dark roast it was more of a medium roast with high acid level and not a smoth finish
12/20/2022
Another winner. Thoroughly enjoyed this smooth, rich roast. Chocolate, toffee and nutty flavors are so good.
12/18/2022
This coffee was good. It wasn't as full bodied as the Alma Essence. But it had good flavor and was very easy to drink.
12/5/2022
Tastes like coffee. Liked the chocolate notes, but wished it had more depth.
12/5/2022
This was good BUT it has too much caffeine. This happens occasionally with certain beans. I can't drink my normal amount without getting jittery. I'll have to pass in the future sadly.
12/1/2022
This one was very good. We both liked the richness and the nuttiness. John likes the darkness of this roast a little bit more than I do, though. One other thing I would add to raise the score would be a little more fullness or roundness to the taste.
11/20/2022
This has been my favorite so far
11/19/2022
Really tasty, both black and with a splash of cream (brewed as cold brew: 16:1 in fridge for 22 hours)
11/12/2022
This coffee is not dark at all.
11/7/2022
This coffee was ok. Had a very slight fruit flavor to it. Nothing major, just a very subtle sweetness.
10/31/2022
Good everyday coffee. Well balanced, familiar flavors. Nothing surprising, but nothing dull.
10/21/2022
We loved this coffee! I think we're learning that we like nut/toffee flavors, rather than citrusy/fruity flavors- but we're still learning what we like as we go!
10/5/2022
I’m not sure if there was a mistake, but the coffee that arrived was very light in color.
10/1/2022
Good roast, allows the flavors to be enjoyed
9/22/2022
Not bad, but not great
9/17/2022
Good but a little too acidic/bitter
8/31/2022
Favorite thus far! Excellent flavor!
8/30/2022
Okay, a little too earthy
8/25/2022
I was not a fan. I'm thinking maybe dark chocolate is not a flavor I care for. I seem not to like those ones as much.
8/22/2022
Not very dark or rich. More like a medium roast.
8/19/2022
Bold flavor with strong bitter notes
Good aftertaste
Overall great coffee with what I would consider a standard coffee taste. Very solid coffee, I could see this being a coffee I drink regularly.

Very good would like to try more single origin espresso/medium dark in the future.
8/14/2022
Nice and nutty, mild chocolate notes. Liked this one.
8/5/2022
Triggers my gag reflex
8/2/2022
Very nice!!
8/1/2022
Says it's their darkest roast but seems pretty medium. Always comes out bitter for me in French press.
7/29/2022
too acidic for me. didn't really enjoy it
7/18/2022
This was okay, but not nearly as flavorful as the last two shipments. The roast was not as dark as I usually like.
7/9/2022
A bit too bitter.
7/1/2022
Horrible
6/29/2022
Hasn't given me a this coffee is great, I really enjoyed Tonys and Alma coffee so far. I like a dark Roast but the flavors just weren't it for me
6/27/2022
interesting flavors but a little too bitter
6/24/2022
Flavor is ok. Beans are dry.
6/22/2022
Not bad but nothing special, missing the rich body I am hoping for. First bag to be subjected to the Encore grinder -- a bit flaky at 28 setting, I don't know if that is what is expected.
6/20/2022
Toffee definitely comes through
6/12/2022
Don't love the dark roast, it seems flat to me
6/9/2022
Really not enjoying this. It tastes more like a light roast, almost a little bitter.
6/9/2022
Meh
6/6/2022
This was sent from mistobox for my espresso maker and these are not really espresso beans?! The beans did not look dark at all. I am using these for espresso on my Jura z 10 and the finest grind sheeting and a straight shot of espresso was sour.
6/2/2022
I liked this one okay, the roast level was good but the coffee had a "bright" almost citrusy note that didn't appeal to me.
5/24/2022
Good, dark
5/22/2022
Did not like. Tasted chalky. Had to throw rest of bag away.
5/11/2022
Nice taste to it with our cappuccinos.
5/5/2022
It was okay- not as enjoyable as the first roast we got. Feel like it’s missing something. First sip was sort of blah
4/26/2022
Bitter
4/23/2022
Didn’t enjoy the smell or flavor
4/23/2022
Prefer darker roast
4/23/2022
Beautifully dark and balanced with a perfect amount of bitterness. The packaging was also really cool!
4/21/2022
This was a great but I need something with a little more aromatic punch and flavor. I don't have any specific complaints but I prefer more aroma while I pull the shot and a more bold flavor when drinking. I should add that I typically only drink latte's so the flavor gets washed out a bit when I add it to milk.
4/16/2022
Liked it but it wasn’t too special
4/11/2022
Flavor is not one I would gravitate towards.
4/11/2022
Nice
3/6/2022
Too light. We really like a darker bean.
3/6/2022
I feel that this coffee lacks in aroma. It tastes dull.
3/5/2022
A perfect cup of coffee
1/15/2022
Not a huge fan of this one. Made using mistobox aero press instructions. Tastes and looks more like a medium roast. Can’t judge the smell due to lingering side effects. Will try again utilizing different methods and will update review.
Update: The more I drank this coffee the less I liked it.

It was very strong and flavourful coffee
1/12/2022
Very smoky aroma out of the bag but not overly intense in the brew. Still more than for my taste, but makes a good mocha.
1/10/2022
A nice strong blend with sweetness and notes of chocolate.
11/15/2021
Loved this one, rich and roasty and smooth, nutty and chocolatey too
10/26/2021
Too dark
10/9/2021
Not dark enough
9/22/2021
Smooth and I loved the chocolate finish
9/16/2021
too dark
9/9/2021
I didn’t love this coffee because it didn’t quite have that smooth, dark taste I like in coffee. The beans were not roasted enough and too dry for my taste .
8/26/2021
Really good, liked this more than the deep space blend- but again looking for some more complexity without losing that nice chocolatey richness
8/25/2021
Can't quite recall but I think we liked
8/11/2021
Not quite as good as their Night Moves, but still excellent.
6/9/2021
This one was ok , it was not my favorite. The taste was not as strong as i would prefer , and it doesn't mix well with almond milk if that matters to you . I use a pour over brew, French press and re-useable kcup for reference. I will say it did blend well with oatmilk but it did not have the flavor to make me want to order it again . The packaging and the name are pretty cool though .
4/29/2021
This is a very sour tasting and super light roast. Unless they screwed up and sent me the wrong coffee, this is NOT a dark roast. I usually drink some type of French Roast, so this coffee tasted flavorless, yet very sour. I made one pot, and will likely through the rest in the garbage--absolutely not good!
4/27/2021
I definitely got some of the toffee flavors but more so on the nose than the taste.
4/26/2021
Very nice medium-dark roast with a great flavor profile, I wish those notes were more prominent though
4/17/2021
too strong of a dark taste
4/1/2021
meh
3/30/2021
Liked in more than most dark roasts. Not overly bitter, subtle sweetness and super subtle acidity. This is about where I like my dark roasts to live.
3/16/2021
LOVE! Great flavor, smell, full bodied, rich (and beans are dry). This one is fantastic!
3/16/2021
Excellent espresso.
3/11/2021
Good flavor. More medium then dark. Nice roasted profile.
3/8/2021
Awesome packaging! A nice chocolatey taste with a smoky finish. I like this blend because it’s very much like a smooth darker medium roast.
2/26/2021
Like Soulmate a little better. Think Darkest side of the Moon was a bit stronger than I would typically enjoy.
2/20/2021
I like this one. Played well with my favorite creamer and had a neutral aftertaste. Bold but not overpowering.
2/17/2021
Very good. We liked it.
2/16/2021
did not have the dark rich taste that I was expecting
2/16/2021
Tiny bit sour, but a great name!
2/12/2021
Very smooth
2/7/2021
Great cup of coffee. Light cream and light Splenda.
2/4/2021
Delicious.
2/1/2021
I really dig this coffee but it benefits a lot from some dairy and a touch of sugar. On it’s own, I’d call it a medium / dark. There’s a lot of dry bean flavor, not unpleasant but it tastes very much like a bean. It’s right in the middle of dry vs oily. No string notes beyond being the most coffee coffee that I could detect. With some fat added it comes together into a nice, smooth, cohesive beverage.
I use this one for weekend coffee where I put stuff in it but it’s not my first pick for my black coffee on weekdays.

This is really good. I think I like this Passion House place. Love that this has a lot of flavor and a very smooth and rich finish with not a ton of acid. I started measuring with a scale instead of just the scoop, and now I bought a burr grinder, so hopefully it will keep getting better.
1/26/2021
Was not really that dark.
1/21/2021
I liked it, Karen did not so much
1/18/2021
Exactly the kind of coffee I love. Full bodied and rich without any Smokey or bitter flavor.
1/17/2021
Good notes, definite notes of chocolate and molasses. Good solid cup of coffee
1/16/2021
Baking spices, chocolate
1/13/2021
Strong and rich, with a nuanced undertone. Some of the best qualities in an espresso..
12/29/2020
Very nice flavor and strength
12/27/2020
This is also close to what we're looking for, but is a little too bitter for us. It would be better if it was a little smoother.
12/27/2020
dark and sweet love it.
12/24/2020
This is definitely a huge favorite. We felt we could taste so many layers of flavor. This was the perfect coffee.
