Bad, Didn't like the floral aroma aspect
2/9/2022
This is the first time I have not finished a bag of beans. I usually like DCR, but I couldn't get through this one.
1/25/2022
This a good roast with descent flavor.
1/19/2022
By far my favorite so far! It could’ve used a little bolder flavor, but the flavor/ notes were exactly what I like.
9/17/2021
Delicious!
4/17/2021
great
9/28/2020
Very good!
9/19/2019
It’s okay if we brew it extra strong, but not our favorite.
7/6/2019
I will be VERY glad when this is gone. Easily the worst coffee I've had in years...I would prefer the store bought Maxwell House stuff instead of this gruel.
5/26/2019
Had a lot of trouble getting this to taste right.
3/19/2019
way too dark
1/31/2019
I didn't get the buttery flavor that they talk about in the review. I liked it but I had to add a lot of milk to make it not bitter.
1/21/2019
i like that this is organic and fair trade
1/1/2019
Very smooth
12/24/2018
A little tannic (sucks the moisture from my mouth).
12/11/2018
I love coffees from this roaster
12/4/2018
Too smoky. Not enough nuance in the flavors. Couldn't taste the caramel or nutty notes. Not as enjoyable a cup as the Milwaukee Blend we started with.
11/12/2018
This was one of my favorites!!!
11/5/2018
I liked this much better than the previous Antithesis blend
10/29/2018
It was very good but I like a darker roast.
10/24/2018
Very good aroma, but the tasting flavor seemed quite weak, at least to my taste.
10/24/2018
Decent - nice dark taste
10/21/2018
Better than the first coffee when I mixed it with some cream or creamer, but bitter to me when I take it black. However, most coffees with chocolate flavoring seem bitter to me when I don't add anything to them.
10/1/2018
Couldn’t taste the chocolate or caramel flavors and just a strong coffee flavor, but not as smooth as would like.
9/20/2018
This coffee was excellent. Great smell and taste!
9/17/2018
I really liked this one. Please send me more that are similar
9/15/2018
Nice balanced flavor. Suited well to start the day or end the night after dinner.
9/10/2018
I thought it was decent but wasn't too excited. I wonder if I don't like blends
9/7/2018
This was amazing
9/5/2018
Something is wrong with this coffee or I'm not choosing the right options. It's undrinkable. It tastes like something is wrong with it. Over the top bitter with no other flavors. The moment I put water on to it you can smell this terrible smell.
9/5/2018
I tend to latch onto brighter coffees, so I was a bit surprised to find how much I enjoyed this. It's quite dark for my tastes (and maybe a bit more than was advertised), however it seemed more expressive than similar roasts.
9/4/2018
I liked very few things about this coffee. It was dar too dark and earthy.
8/30/2018
I really enjoyed this coffee. Not over powering.
8/29/2018
I enjoy this one a lot, particularly as it cools down. The roast is perfect, dark but not burnt. Definitely taste the chocolate notes. It isn’t floral, like the description, but that is ok by me. Would enjoy this more if it had a little more complexity, but this is delicious for a daily morning coffee.
8/29/2018
Did not like the earthy and flowery flavor.
8/28/2018
I can taste fruit and well balance. Not bad, but not my favorite.
8/21/2018
I really can't complain. I enjoy drinking this coffee without creamer although. I'm wondering what could be added to sweeten it a little. Nice job for the first pick.
8/21/2018
Don't like the after taste
8/19/2018
A little bit acidic but otherwise loved it!
8/15/2018
This was by far our favorite for pour overs.
8/6/2018
Liked the hint of chocolate. It would have been perfect if a little bit more robust.
8/6/2018
Very nice flavor, but the oilier beans make it tougher to dial in the espresso grind and tamp
8/5/2018
Really enjoyed it.
8/2/2018
Awesome shots, the exact flavor profile I enjoy in an americano. for some reason the coffee has a lot of volume in the portafilter yet weighs less than other coffees on my scale.
8/2/2018
Darker than first 2. Really enjoyed the taste. Close to what we regularly use.
8/1/2018
Solid. Not amazing but definitely good.
7/24/2018
Ok, not great- not a lot of nuanced or interesting flavors.
7/23/2018
I don't know what happened with this one. It smells fine, but the flavor profile is just bad.
7/23/2018
Chocolatey balanced medium roast, perfect straight down the middle taste. Would love to try a darker roast.
7/21/2018
Closer to what I like. A little bolder than the last one. Would like something a touch bolder. Also marking it down because the roaster sat on my order for a couple of days after printing the shipping label, and it delayed shipment long enough so that I ran out of coffee before it arrived.
7/20/2018
Not always into medium or dark roasts but this was sad well balanced and tasty.
7/19/2018
Just the right roast. Love the cocoa flavor.
7/18/2018
Good
7/18/2018
A little too light, flavor was overwhelmed when mixed with milk as an iced latte. Flavors were good, just not strong enough.
7/17/2018
Good but not outstanding. I did not pick up the chocolate caramel but it was nicely balanced.
7/15/2018
Ok
7/14/2018
Loved opening the bag and smelling that yummy blend. No creamer needed in this balanced blend
7/13/2018
It was delicious!I have thoroughly enjoyed it!
7/11/2018
A nice balanced enjoyable roast and is great to drink.
7/11/2018
Awesome
7/10/2018
Very smooth. I prefer a bit of a bolder/stronger taste, but this was an excellent moderate intensity coffee.
7/7/2018
I liked it
7/1/2018
I have brewed it a few different ways, but i think it is a very balanced type of coffee. I find it "ok". I do not use sugar nor milk in my coffee and i like a little punch in my face when i wake up. Overall i give it a 3/5 rating and i am looking forward to testing more types of coffee. :)
7/1/2018
seemed a bit darker than the description would've suggested. maybe this particular batch was a bit over-roasted?
6/29/2018
Oily. Not what I’d like.
6/26/2018
I like that this was balanced and had some chocolate notes. Very good.
6/26/2018
This coffee is very smooth and almost a has a sweetness. It is a good blend that could easily be an everyday cup. I used both press and V60 and both turned out very well. It is not really an exiting cup, but its low acidity and smooth taste make for a great cup.
6/26/2018
Good cup of coffee, but over-roasted. Says it’s a medium roast but was quite dark and even a tad oily. Would be a great cup if roasted lighter.
6/22/2018
Too mild
6/20/2018
Too light not dark enough for me
6/17/2018
Pros: smooth, not bitter
Cons: a little too dark (medium-dark), too earthy
Cons: a little too dark (medium-dark), too earthy
6/17/2018
Bean was dark and oily...not my taste preference for a pourover. Makes a flavorful french press but wouldn’t be something I can drink/enjoy daily!
6/12/2018
Still good, though a little bolder than I would typically prefer.
6/10/2018
Very earthy, but I don’t taste much of sweet notes in description.
6/8/2018
Traditional full bodied with primarily low undertones of chocolate and nuttiness, some sweetness. Minimal fruitiness.
Better as French press than pour over
Better as French press than pour over
6/7/2018
Super great breakfast coffee. So smooth and love the hints of chocolate and caramel.
6/6/2018
Very smooth,low acid,no bitterness,creamy and full mouth feel,hint of chocolate and caramel
6/6/2018
I definitely enjoyed these beans more than the previous ones but I can't really articulate why. I liked the final taste better...it had a bit more personality and flavor.
6/4/2018
Very good coffee. Much better than the lighter roast I have been getting locally. I was not sure that I liked darker roasted coffee, but this one was very tasty.
6/3/2018
Loved it! Could taste the caramel notes, which were delicious.
5/30/2018
I never received this. I'm sure I would love it.
5/28/2018
Balanced and smooth.
5/23/2018
It’s a little darker than I typically go. I would rate it a 3.5 if that was an option.
5/22/2018
Not bad. I thought it was smooth, but I felt the first coffee had more flavor.
5/20/2018
I enjoyed the cocoa notes and subtle citrus flavor of this coffee.
5/18/2018
Too dark of a roast, too bitter
5/15/2018
This was darker than I typically receive/ buy for myself and I was not expecting to like it much. But it made a really great cup of coffee like every other bag I've been sent!
5/13/2018
DCR’s Green Planet Organic blend totally wowed me! It’s definitely more in my realm of great coffee as opposed to the Day Tripper. First off, the smell of the beans was intoxicating, which is always a plus. The roast level was the most I would want it roasted I think. It has a the vibe of a dark roast to me, without tasting dark. Definitely a medium, which I prefer. Very smooth in my opinion, and enough of a cocoa flavor without being overwhelming. Honestly, I disliked nothing about this coffee and will probably get some more online before I run out!
5/12/2018
This one tasted a little burnt to me, much more so than the previous milwaukee rockstar blend which was very smooth with no burnt taste.
5/9/2018
Thought it was too dark or pungent almost.
5/8/2018
it was good but a bit light for my taste.
5/8/2018
A bit too light. Needs a darker roast.
5/4/2018
Makes a nice, mellow morning cup that pairs well with savory and sweet breakfasts
5/4/2018
Another excellent pick! I love that this coffee is bold but isn’t bitter. I don’t need to dress it up at all to make it taste great, which is exactly how I like it.
5/2/2018
fookin good
5/2/2018
Has good taste, but would like to see less bitterness and maybe more chocolate sweetness flavor. Still better than any store bought coffee!
We have had a couple days to taste the coffee and it’s really good. Think we may have rated to early the first time.

4/30/2018
Didn't care for the caramel flavor but it was smooth
4/29/2018
Obviously a good quality coffee. Prefer a stronger, more flavorful coffee.
4/27/2018
Good but didn't stand out to me.
4/26/2018
Not as flavorful as I would have liked. Good blend of notes, just lacked the last bit of "ouph"
4/25/2018
not the best after taste.
4/24/2018
Average cup of coffee, an earthy smoky flavor.
4/23/2018
It was to weak it tasted like warm water it didn't seem to have much of a flavor.
4/23/2018
Really great
4/19/2018
It was a little bitter for us, but could have been the espresso setting we were on.
4/18/2018
Wonderful and fresh!!
4/18/2018
This was my first selection so I don't have a lot to compare to right now. I did like it. I thought it was smooth with a little bitter but not overpowering.
4/18/2018
Overall pretty good! I am extremely new to coffee so I do not yet know what I tend to like or dislike. This seemed well balanced to me.
4/16/2018
I really like this one! It is not too bitter. It could have more aroma (hope I'm using that word right) and a slightly sweeter taste but so far the best I tried.
4/16/2018
I like this one more than the Brazilian one from last month. It seems like a bit darker roast, which I like. Thank you!
4/15/2018
My husband and I are trying to begin drinking coffee black so we are going from dark blends to medium blends. This is our first coffee from Misto Box and it did not disappoint. It was balanced with a slight chocolate caramel after taste. Smell is delicious! *We used a coffee press on this.
4/14/2018
Solid but not overly flavorful. We drink our coffee black.
4/14/2018
Really nice coffee with a balanced flavor. I enjoy a medium body coffe, but this retained it's flavor on a stronger brew setting.
4/13/2018
i liked this one! I did notice the caramel notes, and it wasn't too dark or bitter.
4/10/2018
too light
too simple
too simple
4/6/2018
Smooth, not bitter. I can really taste the chocolate notes.
4/5/2018
Really light roast; delicate and nuanced. A little too light for our taste.
4/4/2018
Not bad! Not my favorite ever.
4/4/2018
Very good
4/4/2018
A bit darker than I like. Also, I tend to think "balanced" equals "boring," so feel free to send something wild. Extremely light roasts, tea-like, punchy fruit notes, etc. Thanks!
4/4/2018
This was good!
4/3/2018
not good on any level. not even in the context of a blend
4/3/2018
Really liked the color on this roast. It has great aromas and the flavor was lovely. It tasted a bit nuttier and chocolatier than I thought but I loved it.
4/3/2018
Slightly dark and earthy for my taste but well-balanced and delicious overall.
4/2/2018
I enjoyed it. My preference is to go a bit more robust. Thanks!
3/28/2018
Delicious and smooth, with a light caramel flavor. I really enjoyed it!
3/26/2018
came as a unprompted gift. too dark for my taste. flavor profile was uninspiring and flat... and burned.
3/26/2018
I really liked this coffee and it smelled amazing when I opened the box. I loved the notes of chocolate but I would like a blend with a richer flavor.
3/26/2018
Really like this one too
3/25/2018
Good, but wish it was a little richer in flavor
3/25/2018
This smelled amazing since getting the package. I would of called it more earthy then caramel, but chocolate was there. It was light and delicious. Way to hit it out of the park on choice 1
3/23/2018
Love it! Would buy again!
3/19/2018
Great flavor! If this were a bit darker roast, it would be just amazing.
3/18/2018
Not bold enough
3/17/2018
Too light
3/14/2018
I think the notes to the side here really do well to describe this coffee. I can certainly taste the notes of chocolate and caramel. It generally goes down smooth with a bit of a bitterness to follow.
3/12/2018
Nice finish but a little too floral aroma
3/12/2018
The aroma on this is so good but it's not as full-bodied as I like. I was happy to try this coffee and it was a great starter for me.
3/6/2018
Too dark.
3/5/2018
Too mild for our taste
3/4/2018
We thought this was excellent, full body and smooth.
We were expecting another shipment, pls advise on what the schedule is for this gift. Thanks

3/3/2018
Smooth, I like the chocolatey taste, but not bold enough, might want something that's a darker roast or has more intense flavor.
2/28/2018
Too darkly roasted for my taste, but a fairly good coffee given this backdrop. The flavors don't come true that much though, but it has a firm body, making it a good everyday coffee.
2/26/2018
Nope too acidic. Don’t like.
2/26/2018
This one is very good
2/23/2018
Smooth, good standard coffee, not real flavorful, Light chaff, light oil to beans
2/22/2018
Chocolate and caramel-- definitely a flavor profile I enjoy. Interested in trying something that it perhaps more complex but retains a sweet/chocolatey backbone. Reserving the fifth star for now, although this is very good brew in my opinion
2/22/2018
Over-roasted to the degree that the overwhelming sense is acid with coffee hiding in back somewhere.
Later--Still worried a bit about the dark, oily roast. However, the coffee has grown on us and is otherwise more than acceptable. Please keep it or something similar coming!

2/20/2018
Least favorite one yet, just meh
2/20/2018
Chocolate flavor hints didn't appeal to me
2/18/2018
Smelled okay upon opening, but could immediately tell it was a darker roast than I usually prefer. When brewed using my usual V60 pour-over method, it tasted of burned rubber.
2/18/2018
I found this coffee a bit too acidic for my taste. It has a lot of sour taste that I do not enjoy, and there is not enough coffee taste behind it. I have tried making it a few ways using my Aeropress and haven’t found a great way to get a stronger coffee taste without being very acidic.
2/18/2018
Delicious
2/17/2018
Good first start, like the dark boldness, not as favorable as Quills Columbia.
2/17/2018
So incredibly weak. Had to put double or triple the scoops to even drink it because otherwise it felt like I was drinking water. So disappointed in this coffee. Beans look old and dry. I don’t like it at all.
2/16/2018
Bold and aromatic without bitterness. Perhaps a little bolder would be nice.
2/15/2018
Did not like this one at all. Couldn’t force myself to drink it and threw the bag in the trash.
2/14/2018
This coffee was pretty good. I enjoyed the darker earthier notes as well as roasted caramel and charred flavors. I usually like roasts that are a little bit lighter so I'm not giving this five stars but it was better than expected! If you like medium roasts this will be a great pick.
2/14/2018
Way too dark.
2/14/2018
One of my favorites so far!
2/13/2018
The coffee is OK, its a little light on flavor and definitely aroma. A little citrusy for my taste, but was otherwise fairly well balanced. Generally enjoyable though.
2/11/2018
I wish there was more of a bold coffee taste. This coffee doesn't have much of a flavor. It is a smooth coffee, but it's missing something.
2/10/2018
Over roasted
2/7/2018
Very good but not great
2/6/2018
I've enjoyed this coffee! It has a nice flavor.
2/6/2018
Easy to drink, but too light and lacking flavor other than a predominantly nutty taste. Definitely not bad, but doesn't stand out in any way.
2/5/2018
I liked this coffee very much. Would have liked it better I think if it had been a medium roast instead of medium-light. Had to add more coffee when I brewed it. Otherwise I liked everything about it. Very smooth, not bitter.
2/4/2018
The coffe from Dillion’s was good, but not nuanced and lacking any fruit notes or complexity
2/3/2018
I brewed this in both a drip pot and in a french press. It was just too "weak" (mild?) for my taste, l like bolder coffees. It had good floral notes, though, which I liked. So I just tried it again at a rate of 1.75 g of coffee per liquid ounce of water in a French press. It was MUCH stronger and pretty flavorful.
2/2/2018
A bit flat not extremely flavorful
2/1/2018
Balanced coffee, but nothing extraordinary.
2/1/2018
This is the one we did not like! It was bitter and weak.
2/1/2018
Brewed a nice cup but nothing outstanding. The chocolate notes came through nicely.
1/29/2018
This has been my favorite coffee so far. Perfectly balanced, chocolatey, rich, and not bitter at all.
1/29/2018
We found Green Planet to be milder than we expected.
1/27/2018
My batch seemed very dark. Somewhere between Vienna and French. Flavor profile included ash. Was not pleasant as pour over, but at least had good body as a french press. Easily the worst coffee I've received from both Misto and Dillanos.
1/26/2018
Very nice.
1/25/2018
The coffee was nicely balanced, and smooth enough to be very enjoyable black. The flavors were pretty solidly on the earthy/chocolatey area of the spectrum, and it seemed like it might have benefited from some brighter, more floral notes. All in all, though, a very nice coffee!
1/25/2018
Rather bland. Prefer much darker roast. Did not noticed any chocolate flavor.
1/23/2018
I would give it 4 1/2 stars if I could. Not quite a perfect 5 but a nice cup of coffee.
1/23/2018
It was a bit too sour!
1/22/2018
Smooth, enjoyable.
1/21/2018
Great!
1/21/2018
These were the perfect beans for us--in the top 5 of any beans I've ever purchased (and I've been buying coffee beans for decades, usually from specialty roasters).
1/19/2018
Too mild. Tasted like nothing.
1/19/2018
I really liked it.
1/17/2018
earthy, more than tart or bitter. enjoyed brewing this one on the lighter side.
1/17/2018
1/16/2018
This coffee is much darker than I usually drink. The roasting notes on the bag are not nearly as accurate as those on the mistobox page for the coffee. The bag says medium-light but the coffee looks and tastes closer to a dark roast.
1/15/2018
Overly burnt and quite bitter. Tried a few different brewing methods, including a cold brew, but none seemed to get past how bitter and overly burnt this roast is. The roast was very oily, dark color. It's unfortunate that we had just finished off a bag (not from Mistobox) of Onyx beans that were awesome.
1/14/2018
Good coffee. Seemed a little weak, but that may have been the setting on our grinder (we are new to coffee grinding).
1/13/2018
Not a huge fan of quiet, smooth blends. I prefer louder single origins. I liked the low acidity, but having numerous subtle notes led to a muddled cup.
1/12/2018
Great Coffee, little acidity, yes chocolate, little bitter, roasted coffee flavor, it has the Central America flavor that the volcanos put into the coffee beans. GREAT JOB DILLANOS COFFEE ROASTERS, THANK YOU
1/11/2018
I like this, but Wild Child remains my favorite so far.
1/11/2018
I thought the coffee overall was fine. To me it seemed light on the front end (which is great) but then very bold at the end. I usually like it to match and I prefer flavor over boldness. I thought the coffee was fine but similar enough to a coffee I get from Trader Joe's. Better, but similar enough to make me want to try something different. I wouldn't have a problem drinking it again but I am grading a little more harshly in order to help find a coffee from you I enjoy more. I am new to describing coffee I usually just like a type or I don't so forgive me if I mash terms.
1/11/2018
too floral/ fruity
1/11/2018
Delicious, smooth, caramel overtones and rich taste.
1/10/2018
Could have more depth. Nice,tho, and not bitter. Smooth and balanced.
1/10/2018
I really liked this one a lot as an espresso shot, maybe the best I’ve had! I didn’t love it quite as much when I made an Americano with it though. For my next one I’d like to have one to make the perfect Americano
1/10/2018
I thought that this was poorly roasted coffee. I had been given MistoBox box as a gift before and was able to submit preferences for roast etc.
This time around I didn’t get that option and was sent a coffee I really would not have preferred.
I enjoy a good darker roast every once in a while, but this was way over roasted.

1/10/2018
Pretty decent. A bit dark for my tastes.
1/9/2018
I really like the taste. When I first tasted it I thought it had a smoky taste (I liked it). A little more bitter on the finish than I'd like but still a great cup of coffee!
1/8/2018
Great bold taste with an earthly finish.
1/7/2018
Solid for a blend, lacking fruit, overroasted IMHO, super foamy bloom...
1/5/2018
I like the flavors in this coffee a lot. I would like these flavors to be stronger and bolder.
1/3/2018
Wow, this coffee was fresh, really fresh less than 1 week of roast date, it arrived to my door! I have been brewing this via Aeropress, and it has produced an extremely balanced, and well rounded coffee, with wood hints, and a chocolatey flavor and body. 5 stars from. Very Impressed, and thank you. Best Regards, Drew
1/3/2018
I DO NOT like chocolate or caramel in my coffee. If I want chocolate or caramel, I will get a candy bar. I also don't want fruit in my coffee.
1/3/2018
It’s good but kind of plain. This is good sometimes but nowhere near my favorite at this point in time Jan 03 2018
1/3/2018
Very much liked to coffee
1/2/2018
There is no way that this is a "Medium-Light" roast. This tastes much too dark and is difficult to drink.
1/1/2018
The bag pictured here is not the same as the one I received in the mail. Anyway, the coffee I did receive was not good. It had a kind of badly roasted charcoal taste that a lot of cheap coffees sold in the Super market have. The flavor was ok but I found that I couldn't enjoy it enough because that roast flavor was too apparent. Is that what they're calling the "chocolate" flavor?
I don't know but this coffee was underwhelming and for it to be a part of a subscription service, I feel it should at least be as good if not better than stumptown.

12/30/2017
Not a med-light roast by any standards. My partners said it tastes like "office coffee" It a time when Third wave coffee is a standard in the coffee movement I can't seem to understand how beans are being over roasted and wasted.

A very basic conventional over roasted bean, smells of bunt popcorn, notes of overcooked dark chocolate and dark caramel. My partner stated "this tastes like office coffee!"
12/29/2017
Good flavor, but too weak.
12/29/2017
Tastes very much like my standard TJs Bolivian beans. Not bad not fantastic.
12/28/2017
My wife and I are really enjoying this coffee. Not too acidic or fruity, which works great for us because we lean toward medium to slightly dark roasts. Rich flavors and well balanced overall.
12/28/2017
Says med-light roast but it is absolutely a dark roast. The only thing I can guess is that they put the wrong beans in that bag.
12/27/2017
Not strong enough for my taste.
12/27/2017
Good aroma, light blend, needed to up the amount of ground to make a fuller taste
12/24/2017
Didn't like tha chocolate taste much
12/24/2017
This coffee was pretty disappointing. I just tried to make a settings change, typed out a message about the selection and got an auto reply saying my changes have been made. i hope someone gets my message. if this tier of coffee is my only option please don't send anymore, not trying to be a snob, it will just go to waste.

Despite being touted as light to mediuim roast, this was plenty dark and exactly the profile my wife and I like. It reminded me of Swing's Diplomat blend, which is a favorite. Highly recommended in the Chemex.
12/22/2017
It was outstanding. I normally do like flavored coffees but this was exceptional. Can't wait for my next coffee.
12/19/2017
Too strong, bold.
11/30/2017
a little too bitter/burned tasting for me
11/7/2017
Too dark for my tastes.
11/6/2017
Sweet with just a touch of earthiness
10/29/2017
I really like this one.
9/11/2017
Very smooth. Good after taste. Love it.
7/17/2017
Great flavor, smooth, good aroma. Slightly bitter finish though. Overall a good coffee.
6/30/2017
Excellent coffee, certainly consistent w/ Central American roasts (in my experience): Very smooth, just enough 'brightness'/acidity, really very tasty.
5/20/2017
This one is way darker than the (med + light) roast indicates. Kind of bitter. Do not like it. Not a smooth, chocolatey, taste, but more dry and bitter.

Pros:
-Never seen my little, old espresso machine pull a shot as pretty as this! I think it's cause the beans are oily. Never tried oily beans before. But yeah, just thought the shots coming out runny was cause my machine was old and incapable. Turns out just needed the right beans :)
Cons:
-As far as taste goes, I think it's a step in the wrong direction. Tastes like an espresso version of regular coffee I'd get from the office out of a pot. Or just higher quality pot brew. I dunno, just tastes like coffee flavor. Like, if I get a bag of Counter Culture, or even the Nerve Tonic Espresso I got first from Mistobox, that had some flavor to it. Something special, something interesting. Tasted more than just that coffee taste I'd get from the break room coffee.

I generally drink my coffee black or with a little bit of almond milk and no sugar. I found this coffee to be a little bitter for me and I wasn't able to really discern the floral chocolate or floral flavors. I like my coffee to be rich with flavor and a little bit on the sweeter .
4/23/2017
This is the best one yet. I can taste all of the flavors and it's a nice dark bean. Nice!
4/11/2017
I really enjoyed this one! Not acidic and smooth.
4/8/2017
I really, really hated this coffee. It tastes like gas station coffee to me. It's hard to pinpoint the dimension(s) that are problematic, but let me try. There is a kind of bitter, ashy smell to the beans after I grind them. The aftertaste when drinking feels very bitter and dry, almost like when wine is TOO tannic (don't know how else to describe this). Typically I like drier wines, but this coffee's mouthfeel was very unpleasant, especially towards the end of a sip.
Based on what I know about my typical coffee preferences, there are a few things that could be a bad fit. One is that I generally prefer medium-to-dark roasts. This was a medium/light roast (although, honestly, it did not taste like a light roast). Another is that I usually do not like "floral" notes in coffee. I like coffee with nutty, chocolatey notes and low acidity (prefer columbian beans to african) and typically like roasts meant for espresso.

This coffee had good flavor, but I felt it was closer to a dark roast than a light/medium roast.
3/28/2017
This was a good choice for me. It has a nice body, perfect for the morning. I would not want anything more robust or darker than this.
3/8/2017
Really liked this coffee. Not too light or too strong. I'd love my last coffee to be a medium roast that is good for a regular coffee maker.
2/25/2017
This was very oily and kind of boring when I brewed it with my pour over. Playing with the grind and pour rate, I was able to get it to taste okay, but it bordered on bitter at that point. It was pretty good when I cold brewed it, as you can make it fairly strong and chocolaty without being too bitter.
2/11/2017
I didn't care for this coffee It may be just a personal thing but I found it harsh and rather hard on my stomach. It lacked the smoothness I prefer in a coffee.
2/9/2017
ok. just ok
2/4/2017
this one is excellent---medium weight.
1/31/2017
good but not great. received this first Mistobox shipment last night and just finished our first cup this morning. smooth mouth but not a lot of flavor. not much nose either.
1/31/2017
Easy drinking, light, nice morning go to coffee
1/27/2017
Great mouthfeel, mild chocolate notes. Have not picked out much of the mentioned floral. I recommend using the ratios listed on the bag and possibly a little overextracted? All in all a good cup but not one that I would recommend to others.
1/24/2017
good. felt the flavors were not very robust. overall a softer taste. still good tho
1/22/2017
Great! It is really balanced.
1/21/2017
I liked it-- not to bold and not too light
1/17/2017
Very smooth and flavorful. Deep rich flavors with no acidity.
1/9/2017
smooth, not bitter, easy to drink, have been brewing in french press 5 minutes
1/8/2017
This coffee was very heavy-handed and I tend to like lighter roasts. It felt very dark, in fact, it tasted similar to some Keurig coffees I had. I brewed it on a Chemed at 200 degrees using a range of 16:1 to 17:1 ratio and couldn't get a good cup out of it. Wouldn't recommend for someone with similar tastes to mine.
1/4/2017
This blend is good but has too bit of a slight bitter/burnt taste to it. I have had another roast from Dillanos Coffee that I enjoyed much more
12/25/2016
Great body and taste
10/11/2016
This was an ok coffee for us. We actually enjoyed it more as an espresso but not so much as a coffee. It was a bit bitter for us.
10/2/2016
Delicious!

Obviously, I have a lot to learn about coffee. I just bought better brewing equipment. I made my first six cups in a Cuisinart drip machine, but followed the measurement proportions I had been using for "grocery store" coffee beans. The first cup looked and tasted weak. Then I read the bag of coffee and search coffee to water proportions on the web. The second pot is much better. I over heated the coffee and now that it is cool there are lovely, round, and rich flavors washing over my tongue. I am pleased.
9/17/2016
Clean and balanced, I like the chocolate bitterness. I had difficulty smelling the honey and floral note.
9/1/2016
Very smooth finish and taste. It is a little on the lighter side so it is great for those afternoon coffees but it left me wanting a little bit more boldness when I woke up. The buttery hints are great but again sometimes I need a little more pick-me-up in the morning. Overall though it is a good coffee with good depth and flavor.
8/26/2016
I wasn't sure how I'd like the floral notes, but I love this coffee! It has been delightful. Just like it said on the bag, the floral notes, buttery texture, and chocolate finish were right on the money. I would definitely buy this again!
8/13/2016
I liked this coffee better than my first one. This one is darker and richer and I love the hints of chocolate.
7/3/2016
Really like this one !
3/16/2016
Our office really enjoyed this coffee, great aroma
3/8/2016
I like it... not certain if I love it but it's pretty good.
2/16/2016
Although I don't typically like blends as much, this was a pretty well balanced and smooth blend.
2/3/2016
Well roasted, not bitter and with a fresh aroma. Wonderful for an afternoon coffee because it is not overwhelming.
2/3/2016
Loving it. This is my first organic coffee, and it did not disappoint. Light, smooth, delicious. Also wonderfully fragrant--it immediately made my morning better to smell this brewing!
1/29/2016
Too strong. I like flavored coffee also, like hazelnut
1/14/2016
smooth and slightly sweet. excellent overall.
1/11/2016
Overall, I liked this very much. I enjoyed the subtle honey and chocolate notes. I also found it helped to adjust the grind a bit on the fine side. The downside to this coffee was it was a little lighter in body than I prefer, but overall it was very good.
11/21/2015
Overall I enjoyed my first coffee sampling fomr Dillanos. I think it might have been too robust of a taste for me. Would prefer something milder in taste.
9/21/2015
Really liked this one.
7/13/2015
good, but too light of brew for my tastes.
7/13/2015
Really balanced, good nutty flavor throughout, it ends with a smokiness that flirts with a burnt flavor. Slightly lighter on the roast and I think it would finish more like a chocolate. Would order again for sure, very good coffee.
5/23/2015
A little too "earthy" for our taste. Maybe something darker in the future would be great!
5/20/2015
Very good coffee!
5/1/2015
Excellent body with rich flavor
2/15/2015
This coffee is a nice dark roast that is well-balanced.
