DCR and I clearly have different definitions of "Medium" roast. this is rather darkly roasted and has very little character.

I think this is one of the best dark strong decaf coffees out there. I am reordering right now!

Too dark.

Good, not great for us

Not for me. Just couldn't manage to brew a good espresso from this one, but frankly, with decaf, it is hard to pull a tasty shot from many beans, so this isn't a knock on DCR.

The caramel isn't overpowering and it tastes very solid, which I like.

Beans were oily, not my favorite

This the best coffee I've ever had. It grinds well, brews effortlessly and tastes amazing with my cream and sugar. I'm very thankful to have had the opportunity to try it.

I can mix some in with my dark roast and it adds a nice note, but I don’t like it on its own. It’s thin for me.
11/20/2020
Terrible. I hate dark roast. I don't have that in my settings, so I don't understand why I have this. Burnt.

This coffee doesn’t taste as strong as the previous one, or as flavorful.
6/13/2020
Rounded, no hint of cardboard
6/6/2020
OK but a little weak/flat
5/4/2020
Didn't really like the flavor.

This one took a few cups and some altering of my coffee making practice. I still haven’t been able to pick up the notes of caramel but the woody flavor is present and it is a full bodied coffee. I used the pour over method, water at 190 degrees and a courser grind. I don’t use a scale (no shaming please) but found 2 1/2 Tbs was superior to 3 tbs.

Similar to Starbucks, a little too full bodied for me.
3/22/2020
This was pretty good! Definitely better than the last bag -- that woodiness mixed with the caramel smell is a really nice touch.
2/20/2020
take off queue I don't want decaf anymore
1/31/2020
Loved it! Very flavorful!!
1/12/2020
Smooth, excellent espresso woth milk
5/17/2019
Smelled and tasted a bit dingy, or like an old book.
3/29/2019
A little too bitter
3/25/2019
Smooth and basic but a nice change.
2/26/2019
Way too bold, too smoky. I don't like this one.
2/15/2019
Not bitter, tastes very nice, smooth finish. Liked it better than the last one. If i have one suggestion, it might be something a little darker than this roast, and a little more bold. But we are on the right track!
2/13/2019
Awesome coffee! Delicious full bodied flavor.
12/29/2018
Less acidic than the previous coffee, had a rounder more roasted, nutty taste.
11/13/2018
Very nicely balanced. Taste very neutral and what you would expect from a cup of coffee with a bit of sweetness. Goes well black or with milk. Acidity is pretty low but still present.
11/9/2018
this is burnt and undrinkable. Not even my dark-roast loving friends think this is decent. Blech.
10/29/2018
something was wrong with this one. Probably the worst coffee that I have been sent.
9/7/2018
A bit dark. Is there a lighter decaf?
8/7/2018
This is a nice, smooth coffee with earthy and sweet undertones. Made as espresso, it has a very nice flavor that comes out well without tasting burnt or of chemicals. Very much a step up from the store beans I was buying.
I'd like to try other similar coffees, this one is nice!

not a caramel fan
7/6/2018
Very fresh! But I think I'm looking for a fruitier and/or syrupier undertone. I think I don't like the woody flavor. The coffees I've liked the best in the past are the Think Coffee and Toby's Estate decaf brews. Thank you!
6/25/2018
As a coffee it’s fine. However it’s not AT ALL what I ordered. I asked for dark, espresso roast. Please send me what I ordered. I have an espresso machine. This coffee doesn’t work for that.
6/23/2018
Fantastic!
5/20/2018
This was a good decaf. I just think it is hard to find a really flavorful and robust cup of decaf coffee.
5/1/2018
It was decent, but I really prefer espresso so this was a bit thin and naturally not as bold. I think what I didn't love the woody notes. Not sure what's out there in terms of decaf but my favorite cup is a rich, bold, "thick" brew with notes of chocolate, caramel, maple, and/or berries. I've never had to think about decaf before but I'm so happy I don't have to suspend my Misto subscription during pregnancy!

Overall the coffee was good, but there was nothing that stood out about it. It is listed as a medium light roast, but the flavor, the way the beans look, and the oil content seem more like a dark roast. I brewed it in a french press for 4, 4 and a half, and 5 minutes. The only flavor that stood out was a sort of bitterness, I think the cedar flavor? Even that wasn't very distinctive though. It also seemed more medium bodied than full bodied. I was hopping for a thicker mouth feel when I drank it and a decaf that had a more distinct flavor.
4/2/2018
This had a chemical taste. Did not like it.
3/23/2018
It was a medium light roast but tasted like a dark roast to me. I don’t think I love the “woody” taste. I like more fruity and light I think.
3/10/2018
Too dark.
3/4/2018
Appreciated the chemical free decaf since I am pregnant. Flavor was great, very easy drinking, no need to add milk.
2/20/2018
Good comfort coffee, pairs well with cream and sugar. Great decaf.
2/3/2018
Smooth, full bodied, great flavor
1/24/2018
Not super crazy about the woody after taste. Otherwise I love it.
1/20/2018
Did not enjoy the flavor profile on this one at all. Way to bitter and dry for my liking.
12/27/2017
Has good flavor, but not as good as Blue Bottle Night Light, which I've been drinking for months. It's the right level of body and flavor.
12/5/2017
I don't like this one. Too weak/watery.
9/14/2016
Awesome full-bodied decaf.
7/25/2016
This is very good! I love that it's organic, and a chemical free process! I also love that there are hints of caramel and chocolate.
7/18/2016
Love the swiss water process! The beans were vey fragrant and this had a great initial taste. I love the nutty, chocolate flavors. However, I feel like the finish is a little bit too bitter and I'm often left with a burnt aftertaste. I've made this with with both a french press and an Aeropress coffee maker.
7/22/2015
It was so delicious! Really really smooth even tasting.
