Rani
A smooth dark roast but with less complexity. A touch of acidity/bittersweet but had less flavor profile than other dark roasts I’ve tried. A good basic coffee, but prefer single source.

Ground at home coarse, pour over 50g/1 liter water.
3/4/2023

Julia
Perfect bean!
2/25/2023

Daniel
Loved this
2/21/2023

Regina
I liked the overall taste (bittersweet and dark chocolate notes) but was not a huge fan of the smokey flavor. The smokey flavor was fine for an afternoon cup, but was a little too much for the morning. Even though I did not care for the smokey note, I had not tried that note in coffee before and was excited to try something new!
2/18/2023

michele
Would give 4 1/2 if I could.
2/4/2023

Tracy
I feel like this is not as dark as they would like you to think. It's not bad but after 2 days you feel like you are drinking a light roast.
2/3/2023

MariaElena
Not much in the way of flavor.
2/3/2023

David
This blend tasted more like brewed tea than coffee. It could have been darker and stronger.
2/1/2023

Kyle
MALTA is my favorite by far right now! Great blend, complex and so smooth!
1/25/2023

BOBBY
Ground it somewhat coarsely for a french press, and it made a very solid cup. Personally I did not experience much in the way of the chocolate notes listed, but it certainly provided a deep satisfying taste as promised. Very good.
1/24/2023

Sammy
It’s not that strong for a dark roast and it has kind of a sweet aftertaste
1/23/2023

Presley
Was too dark
1/22/2023

Johnathon
Smokiness is a bit overpowering when drinking black or even with a splash of cream. Seemingly would be better with something to offset it but that is not how i personally drink my coffee.
1/19/2023

Byron
Great as a shot on its own. Rich mouthfeel, and low acidity. Very little bitterness. Lots of oaky and chocolate notes coming through in this one.
1/18/2023

Robert
It is very smooth and the flavor is Suttle and not overwelming.
1/15/2023

Jake
Not much not strong enough
1/14/2023

Richard
We would give this 2 stars, very smooth with nothing to us sticking out in regards to flavor. After having it for a few days would say no to this one again
1/13/2023

Jeff
The cafe Malta had a nice strong but subtle flavor definitely on the smoky chocolate scale!
1/11/2023

Patrick
Was between a 4 and 5 rating for this coffee. It's a very good blend, but to me is missing a little something? Nothing is off-putting about the flavor, but maybe missing a little nuance. Definitely would consider ordering again.
1/10/2023

Doug
Loved the chocolate tones and rich flavors
1/9/2023

Christine
excellent balanced flavour
1/5/2023

Jim
Best one so far
1/5/2023

jomarie
Dark, oiler beans, would like less dark but still a bean and roast for espresso. If next coffee is a little less roasted, please keep if not, please change. Ty
1/5/2023

Russ
A little too mild for me, I prefer something stronger.
1/4/2023

Emily
Was excited about this one, not as much nuance as expected
1/4/2023

Andy
Too light. Too chocolatey. Not rich or full bodied enough.
1/2/2023

Daniel
Delicious coffee, definitely a little smoky, very airy but still rich and chocolatey. Loved it in the drip maker, would happily order again
1/2/2023

Shelly
Liked how dark it was. It was a little more bitter than the last one and not as "flavorful". I am not sure my pallet is great for this. I did enjoy it. The description of it is accurate. :-)
1/2/2023

Jada
We really liked the strength of flavor of this coffee!
1/1/2023

Marcus
Enjoyed this one! A tiny bit bitter at the end but would get again
1/1/2023

Michael
This has surprisingly good flavor for such a dark roast
12/31/2022

Jamie
We enjoyed this first coffee. Dark and Nutty and sort of similar to other profiles we normally buy at the Co-op
12/27/2022

Robert
Rich and hints of chocolate
12/27/2022

Brigid
Favorite by far. I could drink this black or with some cream and I always enjoyed it.
12/24/2022

Shane
Not my favorite. Beans are rather oily and the taste isn’t great. I had high hopes for this one, but was disappointed.
12/23/2022

Raechel
smooth flavor with rich tones and low acidity.
12/20/2022

Edward
On the heavy side. I liked it for after dinner rather than mornings. Best to drink black.
12/19/2022

Brian
Really good cappuccino, almost tastes like hot chocolate
12/18/2022

Nam
Too Smoky
12/11/2022

Amanda
A little too acidic. Prefer more robust flavor.
11/15/2022

Alexander
Good, but a very one note coffee. I think I prefer light roast, but I still really appreciate dark roasts
11/14/2022

Aaron
Heavily over-roasted. Smoky and full bodied but I don't get any chocolate notes at all as a pourover
11/14/2022

Chelsey
Really just not for me. Leaves a bitter taste in your mouth and the smokiness for me is off-putting.
11/10/2022

Jack
a little acidic, but good overall.
11/7/2022

Laura
Not much flavor at all
11/5/2022

Ilona
Lack of flavor, didn’t taste full bodied. Was even a little acidic.
10/31/2022

Tiffany
This one is quite dark—maybe a little too dark, though we like that it doesn’t taste burnt—but we like the fuller body of this one compared with the last one
10/29/2022

Karen
Loved everything about this coffee!
10/4/2022

Kate
We likes the smoky notes over the chocolate notes for about a week. Definitely got bored partway through this blend, but it was interesting for a bit.
8/27/2022

Sara
More bitter on the finish than I like.
8/12/2022

Stephanie
I brewed this in my French press. It is bold, tastes of chocolate. I enjoyed it very much
8/5/2022

Jackie
Just okay! Nothing too special about this blend, but nothing bad to say, either. I wish it were a bit bolder.
8/2/2022

Shelby
strong coffee taste which I liked
8/1/2022

Don
Perfect
7/20/2022

David
Would like be great for a cold winter morning, but my palate has changed to appreciate lighter/medium roasts more than darker roasts.
7/16/2022

Jose
sour
7/16/2022

Angela
Loved this coffee. It is rich, smooth, and well balanced.
7/13/2022

Michael
Not that good.
6/29/2022

Connie
excellent
6/27/2022

Brigid
dry beans and not very flavorful
6/21/2022

David
EXCELLENT AS BOTH AN AEROPRESS AND ESPRESSO BREW. RICH AND BOLD WITHOUT THE ROAST OVERPOWERING THE FLAVORS.
6/7/2022

Allan
I liked this

Encore grinder on order, I expect to enjoy your choices more now.
5/31/2022

Dana
i did not like it , too dark too bitter
5/28/2022

Amy
I didn't like this one so much.

It did better as drip than in my French Press.
5/21/2022

Renae
Loved this one, I think my favorite so far. I like how rich and creamy it is.
5/18/2022

Forrest
Superb espresso + cappuccino roast with rich, smooth flavors
5/8/2022

David
Strong but not oily since I have a super automatic espresso machine. Not acidic which we like. Smooth. Will buy again.
5/8/2022

Andrew
Very good. Prefer the one before
5/4/2022

Denise
I love it... perfect cup for me!
4/28/2022

Mark
Quite acidic - even though it's listed as a blend, it tastes more Central American than anything else.
4/25/2022

Olivia
This coffee has a nice, deep chocolatey flavor. It's very good, but tends to have quite a bitter lingering aftertaste. Otherwise it's a great coffee.
4/24/2022

Conrad
Outstanding balance. One of my favorites.
4/24/2022

Elizabeth
Was ok. Nothing special flavor wise and slightly acrid in the finish.
4/22/2022

Joanne
Smells promising but actually quite bland
4/21/2022

Joshua
This was absolutely the best for making espresso. I use a gaggia mdf grinder set to 6, ad use a gaggia classic semi-automatic machine, and it produced a shot with a lot of body and rich crema. Usually my espresso has good crema, but is thin and lacks body.
4/20/2022

Dave
Probably the best overall coffee I’ve ever had. Perfect body.
4/15/2022

Skyler
I would say less chocolatey and more smokey but I like smoke so it's cool
4/13/2022

Katie
It's a little too dark and bitter for me. I noticed I'm having to use more creamer than normal with this coffee.
3/26/2022

Peter
My favorite so far
3/25/2022

Andrew
Really good coffee. Better in aeropress than pourover, but holds up to both nicely.
3/21/2022

Thierry
Good for espresso and pretty deep overall
3/20/2022

Carson
Pretty good, not as good as the Bixby but I'd say I enjoyed it more than the Alma
3/20/2022

Wendy
Incredibly smooth, rich flavor... excellent espresso
3/9/2022

julie
Did not care for this. Couldn't get the grind right. Tasted weak no matter how finely I ground it.
3/5/2022

Sara Lynn
Excellent balance and acidity. A bit smoky (which I enjoy) but not lingering. Dark fruits and caramel notes come through.
3/4/2022

JO ANN
exactly as it was described and delicious.
1/26/2022

Fletcher
My new favorite
11/30/2021

Ehud
One of the best ones I received
10/31/2021

Allen
Pretty yummy.
10/26/2021

10/6/2021

Todd
Perfectly roasted coffee to my liking. That medium to dark roast gave a noticeable chocolate flavor.
9/23/2021

Lauren
Smooth and slightly sweet
9/11/2021

Stephanie
I like this. Strong caffeine effect. Tastes a little muddy but I like that. Not the most exciting but good and a solid morning cup.
9/5/2021

Liesl
Not remarkable but no flaws either.
7/25/2021

Kevin
I’m giving this coffee three stars not because it’s bad but because of how earthy it is. If you like earthy flavors this is for you. But if you want richer sweeter flavors this one probably isn’t for you. I’ve tried different settings and can’t overcome it. Also, I find the mouth feel to be grainy which isn’t my thing as much.

Update: Moving to 4 stars. I found a setting that offered a less earthy and more well rounded flavor. 200g water, 12g beans ground at setting 32 on a 1Zpresso JX-Pro, at 185ºF.
7/18/2021

Chris
too strong
7/12/2021

Heidi
It was wonderful. It had a medium roast flavor that I really liked.
6/30/2021

Dylan
Such a complex and full-bodied taste, with none of the acidity. My favorite roast so far!
6/4/2021

Joel
Good enough--nothing remarkable compared to the other coffees I've received.
5/27/2021

Jessica+Bryan
Loved this blend--rich and well-balanced. Good flavor!
5/17/2021

Maurice
Too bitter. Not as strong a flavor as previous options.
5/15/2021

Angie
I liked the richness of this coffee.
5/9/2021

Elizabeth
I’m making it as espresso and it’s wonderful. Sweet and complex
5/9/2021

Themar
Great taste, very smooth, love the texture
4/23/2021

Elena
The smoke flavor was just a touch rough on me in the cup, but top line taste regardless. Truly one of those ‘nose in the bag in between grinds’ bags.
4/22/2021

Sue
Just okay.
4/12/2021

HC
Dynamite Start!
3/15/2021

Eric
Outstanding
3/10/2021

Phillip
This is a bold blend that really wakes me up. Easy to grind.
2/14/2021

Kristi
Love the chocolate notes!
2/2/2021

Richard
Fine but not something I'd order again. Personally, I only noticed the smoky/roasty-ness and no other distinctive flavors (of chocolate or anything else).
1/19/2021

Devan
This is very close to the Parisi one that I loved!
1/19/2021

Stephen
I think this coffee is weak. More like a blond type brew. This does not excite the dark roast connoisseur.
1/2/2021

Megan
Perfect for my liking
12/31/2020

Kelly
Excellent cup of coffee. Prepared via pour over every morning. Fantastic, smooth, and rich.
12/29/2020

Claire
Very good!
12/28/2020

michele
Love this - so rich, we used this both in our drip machine and our expresso - wonderful flavor both ways!
12/27/2020

Justin
Loved this one. Dark and oily in all the right ways. Brewed through a french press and Aero Press.
12/19/2020

Rebecca
Too chocolatey
12/15/2020

Amy
Good but a bit too bitter
12/7/2020

Lisa
Too smoky and bitter
12/5/2020

Edward
My fav dark roast so far.
11/25/2020

Kevin
Way too much roast on this one. I didn't like it at all.
11/10/2020

Samuel
The after taste is a bit sharp and the body is a bit lemony hence the 4 not 5. These are flavors/qualities we don’t like as much.
11/4/2020

Elizabeth
Not bad but not exceptional.
10/23/2020

Jennifer
Easy to brew and tasty. Started using my french press more often and it was a great match
10/16/2020

Giovanni
Rich but had a slight burnt taste and smell.
10/15/2020

This is the rich, dark roast I love that somehow also manages to be SO SMOOTH. Perfection.
8/20/2020

Stefanie
Loved the flavor
8/4/2020

Grace
YAS love this one and the compostible package.
7/31/2020

Nathan
This was an outstanding cup of coffee. I would have a difficult time say precisely why, but it was a cut above. The perfect cup for a slow Sunday morning.

***I ordered the coffee from Kaldi's, as well as a few different roasts. They do not disappoint.
7/30/2020

Donna
A little too dark for me. Also don't like the smoky flavor.
7/29/2020

Kathryn
fantastic cold brew
7/12/2020

6/14/2020

Ana Sofia
Not that dark
6/1/2020

Carlee
I loved this coffee! It is so different than the previous ones, but just as delicious. I loved that it was a little stronger and richer in taste.
5/18/2020

Martin
Good, but not quite on par with some of the recent ones in terms of balance, flavor, (lack of) acidity.
5/17/2020

Kali
Like the dark roast, like the change in pace from the medium-dark roasts we've gotten so far. This one is particularly good in americanos which is what I'm accustomed to drinking. It's very good! Just waiting for a 'wow' factor to give a bag 5 stars. :)
5/13/2020

Catherine
Too dark and bitter:(
5/12/2020

Overroasted, oily, burnt. Terrible for espresso.

Strong, Rich. Not bitter. Excellent espresso bean.
4/18/2020

DELANEY
Didn’t really have any flavor. I could see the appeal if you put fancy stuff in your lattes, but I don’t.
4/15/2020

Megan
Way too acidic for me. Heartburn in a cup.
4/14/2020

Michael
Great taste. Like a classic Italian Espresso. Brewed in a Miele CM-6350 Espresso Machine.

Bold and strong in both taste and scent. A great blend.
11/5/2019

Susan
Bold for sure-maybe a bit too much
11/2/2019

David
This one has an immediate strong, sharp flavor that falls off quickly, making it a pretty simple coffee. It’s a good basic cup of coffee. Tastes good both black and with cream.
10/12/2019

Karen
our favorite so far.
9/28/2019

DJ
Nothing super special about this one.

From this, I’ve learned I don’t prefer the dark smoky flavor!
3/16/2019

Enrique
Perfect
3/11/2019

disappointing and undrinkable as expresso. No body, too thin, watery. I need a darker roast. I am looking for better Espresso in your offerings.
2/24/2019

Nicholas
Awesome!
2/21/2019

Kathleen and Holger
Good coffee with a little too much smoky flavor for my liking.
2/18/2019

Dave
I like dark strong, dark, espresso grind coffee, and this one fulfilled those requirements.
2/17/2019

Carolyn
Too smoky and overpowering for my mornings. Had a bitter aftertaste that I didn't like.
2/17/2019

Jillian and Kyle
I liked this one a lot. Very smooth and warm while still being rich. I barely had to put any sugar in this! None of that fruity acidity that I hate.
2/17/2019

Gail
Not my favorite. Didn’t have a rich flavor I usually enjoy.
2/13/2019

Krista
UGH! We were so excited after our first coffee to get this next one. Unfortunately it is not good. It's everything we don't like, grassy, earthy, bitter...... Super bummed. Is it returnable? Sorry to be so candid.

This is exactly the taste of what I usually drink. Brown, roast with no after taste. It is great because it is what I like, but on the other hand it isn't a new experience.
2/13/2019

Vanessa
It was good don’t get me wrong, but nothing about it stood out to me.
2/11/2019

kevin
Amazing. One of the best coffees I have had. Would buy again
2/10/2019

Theresa and Donald
It was nice. had some good flavors, not as strong as we would like. Overall an excellent choice
2/7/2019

Cyndi
Just ok, not as smooth and a bit bitter

Nice and dark and smooth

Kayron
Really enjoyed the rich flavors
1/30/2019

Jayne
Can't seem to make a good latte with this coffee, too bitter. Going to try it as a breakfast coffee.
1/29/2019

LEIGHANN
Good cup of coffee, but I like the caramel notes in the French roast better than the chocolate notes in the cafe malta. Looking forward to the Italian roast that’s coming next!
1/29/2019

Bryan
I only gave this one 5 stars due to the fact that it there is no higher rating. One of the best coffee's I have ever brewed.
1/28/2019

april
The BEST!!
1/27/2019

Meg
Quiet, smooth, slightly acidic finish which livens it up. Would be a nice dessert coffee. Not an incredibly defined middle.
1/27/2019

Michele
I really like this one, but I don’t think it’s as rich as the previous coffee that I had sent to me. It’s still very good & I enjoy the deep flavor very much
1/27/2019

Julie
It’s tasted slightly acidic for my taste
1/26/2019

Amanda
Not a chocolate fan
1/25/2019

Erik
We loved the smooth texture, the perfectly medium body, and the earthiness of the flavor. My wife - Jen - sums it up...."I just want more of it...its the perfect cup of coffee I could have every day".
1/24/2019

Sam
very good- tasted like fancy people coffee, i felt slightly wealthier drinking it
1/22/2019

Molly
Smooth and flavorful
1/20/2019

Daniel & Stephanie
great coffee!
1/20/2019

Susan
Not as strong as we would have liked or expected.
1/20/2019

Martin
This was a very low quality bean for espresso and overly sweet.
Please cancel and refund my subscription if this is the quality of product to be expected.
1/19/2019

Lloyd
I am sure the coffee is great, but I want to use it for expresso and do not have the correct grinder for that. Can you send the next batch ground for expresso??
1/15/2019

Sheri
Loved that the grind was a bit more course. We use a Keurig to brew the coffee and that seemed to work better. Also, loved the taste and flavor.
1/15/2019

Glenn
I like it. It's robust (full flavored), aromatic, and rich tasting.
1/14/2019

Gail
The best cup of coffee had in awhile. Never bitter, great the whole cup even after cooled. A favorite of the entire family which is very hard to do.
1/14/2019

Rick
The Coffee was GREAT! It really shined as fresh roasted. My lag in the next shipment is only because I was given much more quality coffee beans as a christmas gift. Once I finish those beans, I will accelerate delivery.
1/13/2019

Jordan
Good flavor and smooth
1/12/2019

Rhonda
This is the roast I really loved!
1/11/2019

Pat
Better, less acidity. Really like the darker roasts
1/10/2019

Trevor and Sami
Good strong flavor! Beans have great color and have a nice oil gloss.
1/9/2019

Robert Parnow
Nice clean balanced flavor. Great when used in an espresso machine
1/8/2019

Lilly
Great flavor and i love the richness
1/5/2019

Eileene
I liked this better than the French Roast. I have been drinking most of my mistobox coffees on the weekend, using my french press. This for me, tasted richer than the French Roast. Looking forward to the next, Italian roast.
12/31/2018

Lois & Rob
Delicious! Love it!
12/31/2018

George
I just finished the Classic French. Really enjoyed the coffee. looking forward to the next collection.
12/26/2018

Antonette
Uninteresting & lacks flavor.
12/25/2018

Randolfo
Great coffee , among my preferred is the number 1 , very rich coffee flavors and smells like coffee heaven
12/16/2018

John
For my second, I felt this coffee was too oily and seemed to be roasted too long for my liking. It smelled less like coffee and more like burnt cardboard. Not horrible, but not great either.
12/16/2018

Kevin
Cafe Malta was very good, much better than my first coffee. I like the rich chocolate taste. This was much more bold than my first coffee, which is what I prefer.
12/10/2018

Anthony
Love it!!! Strong but not overpowering. Great taste and smooth.
12/1/2018

Ashlynn
This one is not as smooth as the last one I was sent!
11/26/2018

Michael
A little over-roasted and oily.
11/24/2018

Brent
Really good coffee. Great flavor smooth finish.
11/23/2018

Charlie
I like it a lot! But, the first coffee I received, I liked better. I feel like the first one was a little bit stronger and more boldly flavored, but this one is no doubt very good as well.
11/17/2018

Nick
It's good but not as good as the Dillanos Coffee Roaster's Double Dark Blend
11/7/2018

Jean
Pretty good
11/6/2018

Wendy
There is a subtle flavor note I don’t care for although not sure how to describe it.
11/2/2018

Thomas
Nice coffee to make in pour over. Hint of sweetness makes this a lighter dark roast.
10/30/2018

Jeff
Fantastic! A splendid balance of dark, rich, chocolate with slight hint of smoke. Incredibly smooth. The aroma is intoxicating.
10/29/2018

Kristin
My favorite so far!
10/28/2018

Paul
This coffee is weak and smells like coffee purchased at a gas station— I threw it away
10/14/2018

Michael
Hello-

My Cafe Malta from Kaldi’s Coffee arrived today and smells great- I was very excited. However, there are several holes in the bag and so I cannot ensure it’s freshness or maintain it. I was so disappointed by this. Can I return this bag for another that is more airtight?

Thank you,
Mike Thornton
9/29/2018

Laurel & Garry
This one wasn't really anything special, but it'll do.
9/27/2018

Logan
Love it. Right up my alley!
9/24/2018

Acacia
Not as dark or bold as I like. Seemed to lose/change flavor significantly as it cooled in my mug, so it was only good when it was fresh from the pot. Still a good quality coffee, very fresh.
9/22/2018

Taryn
We love it. Could drink it every day!
9/22/2018

Terry
This coffee is not smoky, chocolate or rich. It's typical south american with unpleasant smell when the bag is first open. The smell was present in the previous bag. WOuld not buy Cafe Malta
9/20/2018

John
Like my last shipment, when I brew this one using a medium-course grind (so my small one-cup drip machine doesn't get its nozzles crusted over), it comes out weak and with an herbal overtone that I don't like. If I fine-grind for espresso, and either brew a smaller amount in my dripper or a larger amount in my gold-filter Melita pour-over, I can get a pretty good flavor. But when I pull an espresso shot in my Barista, it just doesn't taste like espresso, altho the bag says it should work for either espresso or drip. But I loved the bag! If folds down very evenly and crimps well to keep each remaining quantity of beans fresh until you are ready to grind the next small batch. Most bags get all smushy and just don't work well after you first open them.
9/19/2018

Chris
I think this is the best coffee I've ever had.
9/19/2018

Chris
a little light & a little bitter
9/13/2018

Stuart
Eh
9/5/2018

Stephen
Rich taste, aroma and smoky flavor
9/4/2018

George
Coffee was fine. Not the best nose, a little too skunk for my taste.
9/2/2018

Jonathan
This coffee is great! Not bitter at all.
8/30/2018

Jonathon
This is a middle of the road dark roast that feels flat on the palate. The subtle chocolate undertones are a bit chalky. The darkness of the roast tries to bolden the flavor, and it does to an extent, but I don’t get a smooth or rich depth of flavor with this coffee. As I said, it’s ok but just kind of flat.
8/24/2018

Rebecca
Not much flavor, just flat.
8/20/2018

Simon
I liked this one better than the 1st one. I enjoyed the flavours.
8/15/2018

Chris
Rather bitter for my taste.
8/1/2018

Ken
Amazing! One of the best coffees I've had so far! Very rich & dark - perfect for my espresso machine! :)
7/26/2018

Dion
Too light for our liking. But, did love the bold flavor
7/16/2018

Thomas
A little too light for my taste. Didn't much care for it as a drip coffee, but made a pretty decent cold brew.
7/12/2018

Shannon
Awful.
7/8/2018

Joan
Beans were not fresh when I opened the bag this morning. They were dry, no sign of oil on beans anywhere. Very disappointed in quality.
7/2/2018

Daria
Not preferred. Has a sour taste.
6/29/2018

John
Not a big fan
6/29/2018

Nathan
Wasn't very bold. Lacked any strong flavors.
6/11/2018

Will
Much closer to what I like.
6/1/2018

Thomas
This was good to okay. I gave it an okay as I felt the flavor wasn't bold as the previous two coffees.
5/22/2018

Jacob
Was simply too dark for my liking
5/8/2018

Kristin
Loved it. Perfect balance of bold flavor but low acidity
4/26/2018

Isaac
Bitter!! Backed off the amount of coffee we usually use and it was drinkable but we wouldn’t ever buy it.
4/23/2018

Roshan
Didn't really taste all that great. Gave off a burnt smell.
4/20/2018

Shamus
Dark and a little oily, which was nice, but the overall flavor was somewhat bland, resembling more of a diner coffee.
4/4/2018

Thomas
Loved it. Great cup of coffee.
3/29/2018

Andrea
This roast is delicious too! I have enjoyed all the coffee you have sent and am excited for another roaster to try. I did notice that the Verve seemed to have more oils on the beans which I prefer. I'm not sure if this is a freshness issue or just due to the different type of roast but just thought I'd mention that I like that.
I am updating my subscription to continue getting coffee.
Thanks! Andrea
3/12/2018

Rachel
So bitter and acidy! Not one of my favorites.
3/11/2018

Jeff
Light flavor, slightly acidic. Not a fan.
3/6/2018

Frederick
This one has been my favorite so far. It makes an excellent espresso and also a good cup for the aero press. Tastes good both black and with cream.
3/5/2018

Korey
Found it a little acidic, but it was fine
3/3/2018

Jennifer & Charlie
Did not like this at all. Tasted like chocolate milk. Yuck!
2/24/2018

Davey
of smoke stronger chocolate flavor Not big on the stronger chocolate notes would give it a 3.5 if I could
2/22/2018

Carl
Good, but not great.
2/21/2018

William
I think I liked it better French Pressed than AeroPressed. It was kind of grassy (?) or acidic at first, but I think I've got a better brewing method, and I'm enjoying it a lot more now.
2/13/2018

scott
Send this again!
2/5/2018

Stephanie
This is a bit sharp. And it is dry. Notes of wood, smoke, and dry. I was eating some mushrooms sauteed in butter, and this coffee cut through it nicely. That is the sharpness. I prefer coffees that are a bit more roasty and round, but I can't complain about this, it is good quality coffee. Complex.
1/30/2018

Karyn
There was a flavor it it that I didn't really like. Couldn't taste the chocolate. Not nearly as good as last box.
1/29/2018

Katharina
This has been one of my favorites - love the aroma and flavor. An all around win.
1/28/2018

Teri
This coffee is wonderful. The flavor is very smooth. It's dark and rich. This is one of my favorites.
1/25/2018

Samantha
I enjoyed this roast! I'm still a novice espresso maker, but I liked the boldness and body of it.
1/23/2018

Tim
Very good coffee. Beat out the last dark roast I got with the rich smoky flavor. Since it's more of a richer flavor, the coffee is smoother when you drink it. Made it using my V60 which made an excellent cup or multiple cups. After taste was similar to the actual taste of the coffee which was good. Overall a good dark roast, may have to try it as expresso.
1/22/2018

Meg
This is the best coffee I've ever had. I'd like to only receive Kaldi's going forward unless you can recommend another with the same qualities.
1/16/2018

Catherine
Too light for my tastes.
1/16/2018

Garrett
made an awesome espresso, pretty smoky, chocolatey. some steamed and frothy milk was always a great addition. it made awesome lattes.
1/15/2018

Kevin
I did not care for the flavor.
1/13/2018

Olava
excellent
1/12/2018

Brandt
I really didn't like this one. You already sent it to me before. I prefer to try a new coffee each month. Can I send this back?
1/12/2018

Tony
Not strong and bold enough for me. I want a real espresso taste. It would make a good drip coffee though
1/9/2018

Audry
Wasn't a huge fan of some of the notes in this coffee.
1/7/2018

Julia
would prefer something more tailored for french press instead of espresso or drip.
1/6/2018

Nikolas
Hands down best coffee you've sent so far. Whatever taste like this, is exactly what I'm looking for
12/30/2017

Jennifer
This was good! I could definitely smell and taste the smokiness. I enjoyed it, but definitely liked it better in a latte or cappuccino rather than the aero press.
12/14/2017

Kevin
It was just ok. It went fast so can't remember what I did not like about it. Maybe a creamy or the chocolate taste?? I normally like rich/strong coffees. It did not grind evenly. I blended this with 1/4 portion of Kicking Horse Kick Ass. That blend was pretty good. FYI, I only have a french Press. Thanks looking forward to the Anodyne coffee.
12/13/2017

Stacy
Dark and delicious!
12/10/2017

Michael
Did not taste good in drip. Ok with press.
11/20/2017

Whitney
This has been my absolute favorite. I have even looked into buying this regularly. It is bold, but has such a smooth finish.
10/29/2017

Nick
This was very disappointing. Bland and ashy on every well-extracted espresso pull.
10/3/2017

David
Excellent coffee. Very earthy and creamy.
10/2/2017

Simon
Definitely an espresso bean, didn't get the required strength I like from Chemex.
9/20/2017

Liz
Loved the bold flavor from the stovetop percolator, and appreciated the more muted but still smooth and rich taste from the drip machine. The description is spot on!
9/17/2017

Kenneth
Again, all coffees have been very good. I have t stop using all 5 stars on my ratings so this one gets a 4.
9/17/2017

Josh
too acidic
9/15/2017

Anne
Haven't tried it as an espresso yet, but it's good with a Chemex! Not getting the dark chocolate, but certainly smoky.
9/14/2017

ANDREA
Enjoying this very much. Like this hot in my French press but tried it as a cold brew last week and it was potently delicious!
9/12/2017

Roseanne
Delicious!
9/4/2017

Andrew
Not bad at all. Smooth, but benefits from a splash of cream.
9/4/2017

Mary
Love this! Smooth and rich.
8/23/2017

Annette
Good...but not a favorite...smoky... but chocolate...not so much
8/18/2017

Tamara
We like it better than the second bag of coffee, but still not as good as the first. Maybe it's the smoky flavor that detracts?
8/10/2017

Rob
Great Flavor
8/8/2017

Bunny & Bunny
My favorite so far! Dark and delicious. Thank you!
8/7/2017

Michael
Awesome flavor, slightly nutty. Would highly recommend.
7/25/2017

Drew
Only discernible flavor is burned wood. Lifeless.
7/21/2017

Jesse
Was worried about the smoke notes in description but coffee was excellent. Really smooth and well balanced. Like this one a lot.
7/12/2017

Stephen
Nice afternoon cup
6/7/2017

Tashina
Perfectly acidic and dark. This is great alone or with some soy or almond milk. Lots of flavor. Not too roasty or burnt.
6/6/2017

Bridgette
good flavor, very smooth
5/3/2017

Andres
Great stuff! I had to adjust my water ratio a little bit since this one was so dark but once I got it right bam! Delicious chocolate notes that can't do you wrong...
4/30/2017

Andrew
Cafe Malta was good I could not say it was better or worse than the previous roast. I would call equal to the previous roast. I would put this coffee in the roast category. There was no acidic or sour flavors. The beans are pretty much on par with what I typically drink.
4/23/2017

Kip
Just didn't have anything special about its flavor.
4/4/2017

Tim
Nice and rich.
3/4/2017

Julia
One of the best coffees that I have had!
2/23/2017

Alfred
Very roasty but I enjoyed the chocolateyness of it.
2/22/2017

Lauren
Loved this one!
2/4/2017

Cara and Alex
Smooth, decently balanced but a little thin. We tasted more of a toffee flavor than chocolate. A short finish, but nice color and crema.
1/30/2017

Samantha
Perspective: this is the first coffee I've ever had without tons of cream and sugar so my tastes are...evolving. This was not a horrible coffee to drink though the bitterness was a bit strong. I really don't like smoke as a taste in any food but was willing to try. Didn't taste any chocolote notes at all but that's probably my taste buds not recognizing nuanced flavor yet. Overall ok.
1/23/2017

Jennifer
Smooth and first pot was a little light. I think I would like it a tad stronger for mornings.
1/18/2017

Zian
This coffee has a distinct, sweet smell, but I'm having trouble pinpointing the flavor profiles I'm getting out of both shots and pourovers. I think the "smokey" notes are a little overpowering, and I'm not really getting any chocolate taste out of it as a result. Would definitely prefer something less smokey next time around.
1/12/2017

Anya
Dear Seth, THIS coffee. Man. What can I say? It's very very very good, we loved it.
11/17/2016

Emily
Smooth, easy to drink, chocolatey. The office enjoyed this one a lot!
11/6/2016

Amanda
This one was tasty! It was very rich and I liked the hint of smoke.
10/29/2016

Sara
Really nice again, enjoyed the chocolatey notes.
10/19/2016

Kevin
This coffee falls a little flat for me. I like the aroma, and it starts with a nice dark roasted flavor with some baking chocolate, but doesn't go any farther. This coffee really wakes up with some sweetness from a cookie or donut, but on its own I think it lacks a little depth.
10/15/2016

Samuel B
Nice chocolate bitterness on the sides, this coffee is a bit flat as a drip cup. I couldn't taste or smell much complexity. However, that was not true in a mocha pot, were the singleness of the flavor seemed rich and deep.
9/4/2016

Nicole
Smells good but too toasted or roasty for us when we drink it.
8/27/2016

James
I like this one more than the Dillanos, but I am learning i like slightly lighter roasts.
7/30/2016

Tom
Almost tastes as good as coffee smells!
7/15/2016

Sachiko
a little too dark for my taste. very strong. probably delicious for an espresso. but okay for aero-press.
7/14/2016

Andrew
Rich flavor. Mild smoke on the finish
7/13/2016

Michael
Very smooth, great body
7/10/2016

Johnathan
this has been a solid cup of coffee! Great for drip coffee, and excellent cold!
7/9/2016

Jason
Fantastic flavor.
6/17/2016

Tim
Really enjoy this coffee on my drive into work. Isn't bitter, very rich flavor, and tastes great even to my girlfriend (who isn't big on coffee at all)
6/10/2016

Tung
Fairly bland.
5/29/2016

Christina
I like it.
5/22/2016

Geri
I found it to be too light. I made it twice, the second time I cut down on the water to coffee ratio and it was still too light
5/19/2016

JD
There is very little depth to the flavor. The coffee tastes pretty flat, borderline burnt.
5/11/2016

Harveen
Very good coffee. A little darker roast that I would usually shy away from. I'm glad I'm enjoying it!!
4/30/2016

Sherry
Too strong for my liking.
4/27/2016

Rachel
The beans are dark brown and oily with a smoky and deep scent. I smelled a hint of cinnamon, too. The coffee brewed into a deep brown color (not black) and, while it was fairly balanced, I tasted an earthiness that I didn't expect. I enjoyed this blend and would try it again.
7/26/2015

Tiffany
I didn't really care for this one. I thought it was kind of bitter.
