This is the Aldo's Blend brought to you by 1000 Faces Coffee.

Rychelle
I loved everything about this one! It smells amazing, and tastes even better. I love the chocolate and nutty notes.
11/28/2019

Russell
not my style.
10/23/2019

Amanda
Flat and boring to me
10/14/2019

Samuel
It was ok. Not great.
8/23/2019

Biff
Started using a drip coffee maker and bought a much better grinder. This coffee was awesome.
8/18/2019

Amber
Grounds have a very buttery, caramel smell and those notes are nice and moderate, not overpowering and definitely present
8/18/2019

Amber
Not our favorite
8/18/2019

Erin
I loved the dark chocolate notes. They were very well balanced in this coffee. This coffee was very good and still tasted good when it cooled off, unlike some of the others.
8/14/2019

Mike
"not bad" but not great. Drinkable, but I didn't look forward to my morning cup...rather I was anxious for the entire bag to be gone.
7/11/2019

Dimitri
Really chocolatey flavor, great aroma fills the room. Easy drinker; definitely something I would enjoy when it gets colder outside and I want to curl up around a cup. Look to reorder this later.
6/28/2019

Nathan
Would give this 4.5 stars if possible. Only tried it with cold brew, but made for a really nice, rich, chocolatey, nutty cup of coffee with its own distinct character. Not absolutely mind-blowing, but very good.
6/17/2019

Sarah
Little too bright for me.
6/15/2019

Anne
Nice and smooth when made with a french press and also as cold brew.
1/7/2019

Nick
Little bitter
12/25/2018

Duane
Very good coffee with a wee bit darker roast added.
11/20/2018

Tom
It looks like I have to rate at one star for the curator to see my notes. If I could put a minus stars I would do that! Never had such a bad coffee (see past ratings). Seems almost like it wasn't roasted. "I can drink any coffee" - this has changed that thought!
10/4/2018

Tracy
Pretty bland, not a fan.
9/14/2018

Jeremy
It’s a bit bitter which is maybe my grind (I wish shipments had grind recommendations - I use the ninja coffee bar because it does single cups, and the Baratza Virtuoso grinder).

However, ignoring the bitter, I love the flavor overall and the smell is amazing. More like this one.
8/30/2018

Justin
It's not that it was bad, but it was a bit too sweet and floral at points.
6/30/2018

Mary
not much taste to this one
6/24/2018

Haolan
Very tasty, interesting flavors..
6/18/2018

Chase
Second worst (next to klatch)
6/12/2018

Alexander
This was a great coffee as well. It tasted like the caramelized part of baked sweet potatoes which I love. It wasn't too dark or bitter at all, it actually had a bit of sweetness but still felt like a nice full coffee.
5/13/2018

Jodi
very very good, a bit more dark than my favorite types but delicious
4/24/2018

Lisa
My favorite so far. Perfect blend, great roast, amazing flavor.
4/21/2018

Deborah
I liked this one a lot - the medium dark roasts seem to be perfect for me. In my top 2 so far!
3/8/2018

Alex
Absolutely awesome, one of my top favorites!
1/30/2018

Brandon
I did not enjoy the bitterness
1/28/2018

Gerard
I think this one is pretty good Samantha...unique...earthy with good chocolate notes.

Just keep the top picks coming and we can do this for a long time! I'm enjoying this service and look forward to getting new (cool) beans every month!
1/23/2018

Galen
A bit devoid of flavor. I like the roast level, but the flavor profile just didn't stand out to me.
1/18/2018

Albert
Very light. Good flavor but would leave it in french press a little longer to give it a little more body.
1/9/2018

David
Did not enjoy the earthy taste of this coffee
1/9/2018

Susan
Delicious!
12/1/2017

Brian
Pretty good. I'm not able to get a ton of flavor while pulling shots, but overall pretty good. No bitterness at all.
11/12/2017

Anne
Delicious!!
10/24/2017

Billy
Just OK
10/21/2017

Kellen
Excellent flavor. Nice mix of bold but not sour
10/9/2017

Erin
Meh. This smelled really good, but lost its flavor on brew. Nothing special.
10/8/2017

Cathy
Way too intense for me.
9/28/2017

Nick
Super cool coffee, and the description really captures all the interesting things about it. The coffee stays with you after you finish your sip and the described spicy/ peppery note is extremely pleasant
9/16/2017

Jim
like the full body
9/10/2017

Ann
This was just ok. It has more of a bitter back flavor than we like. We tried several different brewing methods but I think the "spicy" tone of this one is too much for our palette. It's not terrible at all, it's just not as great as the first coffee we got from you.
8/20/2017

Karen
Again, I don't love dark roasts.
8/18/2017

Sawyer
Best one so far! Tasted dark without being too dark.
8/18/2017

Kirk
Wow, this is my favorite coffee I have received in a while. Wonderful notes.
8/18/2017

Nick
This by far has been my favorite roast so far. I enjoyed this more than the first coffee I received. I felt it was balanced and I could taste the earthy, spicy flavors. If I was to say anything bad it would be the beans seems a little light. I would like to explore more earthy/spicy tasting note coffees!
8/9/2017

Dick
This good but still not exceptional. Can't wait to try your next blend.
7/30/2017

Anthony
Great roast! Love the spicy flavor.
7/25/2017

Brittany
I love the earth and spicy notes of this coffee. I'd love to try more from 1000 Face Coffee.
6/30/2017

Jason
A unique taste, typically not in my normal spectrum, but really enjoyed the earthy tone to the coffee.
6/17/2017

Jeremy
In contrast to Dillanos Midway Blend, I felt that Aldo's Blend was ligther than what I typically would enjoy, but the flavor was very good.

I typically like a bolder flavored coffee which you tend to get with darker roasts, but I like the smoothness of medium roasts. Aldo's Blend offered the smoothness and didn't have the same level of "bitterness" that Dillano's did. However, I must say that Dillano's Midway Blend and it's bolder flavor grew on me as I worked my way through the bag.

I've only brewed Aldo's Blend twice so far, so I'm excited to see how my tastes adjust to this coffee. Good choice. Something between Aldo's and Dillano's Midway Blend is probably the best fit for me.
5/11/2017

Sarah
It was okay, however nothing really stuck out. I wasn't a fan of the earthy/spicy flavor.
4/19/2017

Shane
very earthy, all the tastes are toasty, wish there was a more dark chocolate tastes and oils
4/6/2017

Betty and Jeff
Too full bodied for my taste
3/28/2017

Scott
Delicious!!
3/21/2017

Scott
weak, off taste, two bad months in a row
3/19/2017

Erasmo
Love it!
3/11/2017

Aubrey
I really love this coffee. I could maybe go for slightly sweeter instead of earthy, but this is a really good cup of coffee.
3/6/2017

Sarah
I got major vanilla flavor, and didn't care for this one as much as my first shipment. This one had much more natural sweetness, so if that's your jam, this one's for you. I prefer more bitterness. Sign me up for earthiness, but this one was a little too caramelly for my taste.
3/3/2017

Maria
Loved it
2/26/2017

Jason
Very delish. Peppery smell does wake you up in the morning. Not acidic at all. It isn't earthy, flavorful, would like more spice :)
2/21/2017

Ben
Kind of bitter. Not a big Fan of the peppery taste
2/16/2017

Michaela
A lot of flavor in the front, empty at the end. Needs more body, but good flavor.
2/7/2017

Alex
I think I liked Aldo's Blend more than my previous coffee. It was a little bit darker than the previous set and definitely tasted acidic and roasty. I think next time, I might prefer something less acidic, although I did overall enjoy this cup. I definitely tasted the earthiness and spice to the cup, and enjoyed both qualities.
2/6/2017

Chelsea
This coffee was good but tasted like something I could find locally, can you get really weird with the next one please:)
2/5/2017

Chris & Sara
This was a great blend, really enjoying it. Wouldn't mind getting again but would love to try other coffee with the remaining shipments.
2/4/2017

Daniel
Excellent mouthfeel. A little bitter due to the roasting.
2/3/2017

Gary
Great flavor. Not too bold.
1/25/2017

Rose & Bob
Liked this alot first thing in the morning.
1/22/2017

Peter
Very "green" flavor. Intense notes of spice, very full bodied cup
1/1/2017

Rachel
This coffee was awful. We actually think it was spoiled or stale. My husband tried to brew it twice in our chemex and it was undrinkable both times. He said "something went really really wrong."
12/28/2016

Joe
I'm not a spicy coffee person.
12/26/2016

Caley
Not nearly as good as the last two. The aftertaste is not to my taste, I think a little too bitter. It is fine with a little cream to cut that bitterness, but the La Colombe and Verve were very drinkable black.
12/7/2016

Steven
This was a great tasting simple coffee. Not especially bitter, acidic, etc, but something I would turn to when I'm looking for a good well rounded coffee.
11/26/2016

Stephen
A savory kind of flavor that did not come out well cold brewed. It tastes like a blend of a rich premium coffee and office drip. Hints of something wonderful that didn't pan out for us.
11/16/2016

Mark
A little more earthy than what I like but still made a nice cup.
10/25/2016

David
Too earthy for my tastes. Not enough oil left in the bean.
10/24/2016

Josh
I liked the coffee. It seemed to have some spice which I liked. It was a little darker than I tend to drink, but still had good flavors and didn't have a burnt taste some dark roasts do. While I liked this coffee quite a bit, I think I am ready for a bit more fruity and fresh tasting coffee. Thanks!!
10/12/2016

Randy
I enjoyed this one more than the first - this one is a bit bolder than the first and darked - I like that.
10/10/2016

Brian
Both my wife and I enjoyed this one. Good pick!
10/9/2016

William
Very solid - a little thin for my personal taste - BUT - if you brew it strong - you get a fine cup! HOWEVER - if you drip this and find exactly the right balance between amount of coffee vrs. water you will be rewarded.
10/9/2016

Andi
A very earthy coffee.
10/8/2016

Jennifer
I love the potential here and the savory notes, but I wish it were a smidge darker with a bit more body. It's still a little too juicy and citrusy to me.
9/27/2016

Kensey
I'm drinking like five cups of this a day and I cherish every sip.
9/21/2016

Anthony
This is my favorite one yet. It is so smooth and delicious. My wife is very much enjoying it as well
9/20/2016

Veronica
OMG!!!
9/19/2016

Deborah
rich and smooth
8/16/2016

Max
That's what I'm talking about!
7/30/2016

Justin
A nice fresh brew of this coffee perfectly emulates stale office coffee with a hint of old cigarettes. Aldo should be embarrassed by this blend.
7/30/2016

Benji
Very straightforward coffee. Flavor profile lacked complexity, but it was consistently good.
7/18/2016

Drew
Smooth and clean, but not quite rich (flavorful? full-bodied?) enough to get 5 stars from me.
7/5/2016

Max
enjoyable
6/25/2016

Amanda
My husband LOVES this one. I like it a lot but not as much as I liked the Noble. It is still a little bit sour.
6/20/2016

Josh
Light and tasty, nothing bitter, sour, etc.
5/23/2016

Leslie
This has been our favorite so far! Great cup of coffee balanced and not bitter at all.
5/7/2016

Leslie

5/7/2016

K
Definitely shows the Nicaraguan influence with earthy and chocolate flavors. Well rounded flavor with some thinness at the end.
4/4/2016

Gramps & Lin
First taste too fruity.Aftertaste just not smokey enough.
2/21/2016

Allison
smoky
1/7/2016

Rambert
my favorite so far!
10/8/2015

Ryan
Not my style as far as flavor or spice. But as an overall cup of coffee, it is good. Full, tasteful, and aromatic.
8/1/2015

Jeremy
Nice solid blend. Has a slight tang to it, with a good sort of nutty after taste, which I enjoyed with both hot and iced brews.
7/27/2015

Rachel
The beans are medium to dark brown and not oily, but brewed into a chestnut color. When smelling the beans in the package, I sensed notes of chocolate and tobacco with a little smoke. The taste was slightly sweet and a little more of the acidic side. While an interesting blend, I did not find the flavor to be as deep and complex as I typically drink.
7/26/2015

Tiffany
I really liked this one, it had great body and flavor.
7/17/2015

Paul
good not great. high acidity?
5/21/2015

Jonathan
Not bold enough for my liking.
5/20/2015

Rebecca
Loved this coffee. Flavor was great.
5/14/2015

BLAKE
Not our favourite blend but good. Lacked boldness, liked the smoky flavour.
5/12/2015

Diane
An all-around satisfying cup of coffee.
5/7/2015

Jennifer
Liked it. Hard to follow Caffe Ladro, Diablo Blend.
4/21/2015

David
too light. I made cold press coffee in an attempt to increase the flavor. It worked a little but not that much.
3/20/2015

Samuel
Very smooth with a pleasant after taste
2/1/2015

Samantha
Not my typical cup, but my family and I really enjoyed.
