Simply delicious... so far the best I’ve tried
2/8/2019

Amy
Very good. Full body and smooth.
2/8/2019

Jeff
Not bad. Tastes like a single origin. Not bitter at all.
2/7/2019

John
Decent, a bit of a bitter finish
2/5/2019

Whitney
This particular blend was a little too full-bodied for my particular palate. The notes of honey definitely come through in the cup which I enjoyed. I would recommend to others who I know buy richer blends of coffee.
2/5/2019

Daniel
smelled delicious
2/4/2019

Maria
Did not care for this coffee. Had a bitter taste
1/28/2019

Curt
Decent roast. Would have liked it to be a bit stronger, but overall good flavor.
1/21/2019

Amanda
fine, but not much flavor
1/18/2019

Bryan
We found that the raisin and cashew notes didn't really work for us. Bummer.
1/18/2019

Emily
We liked the previous coffee better than this one. A bit too heavy/strong.
1/16/2019

Miriam
Wasn't overly impressed. Just your standard cup of coffee here.
1/15/2019

Karen
my husband preferred this over the first bag, I enjoyed them both
1/12/2019

Erin
Good, but not as full bodied as we like
1/7/2019

James
FIRST ROAST: Exact to tasting notes. Very soft but flavorful. Versatile for different brewing methods. 5 stars

SECOND ROAST:. Tastes of pure, sour coffee. No extra flavors. Very dark like off the shelf, already ground, Folgers. 1 star.
1/6/2019

Tanner
The flavor seemed a little bland
1/4/2019

Michael
Very nice! The almond notes are definitely present without being overbearing. It is a little lacking in the body but, I have yet to try this in a French press so, that may remedy that. It is very smooth and easy drinking.
12/27/2018

Aimee
The family was divided on this, I liked it, my husband that it was too acidic.
12/27/2018

Rebecca
Watered down, not much flavor.
12/22/2018

Christopher
Slightly more bitter than I like. All in all good though
12/4/2018

Patty
The best cup i have is always the first one after opening the package, and when i taste it the best. It is smooth, tasted slightly earthy at 1st sip, but mellowed out. I couldnt taste the honey or almond. Tasted more flavor in 1st package of coffee i received, but think i liked this one better as its more what im used to. Im still interested in trying new flavors and styles.
11/30/2018

Rob
Really good! I like the flavor a lot , sometimes like a fuller bodied coffee but it’s good to go back and forth between fuller and medium.
11/30/2018

Carrie
Great!!!! Smooth, balanced, love this coffee
11/28/2018

Carli
We liked this one more than the first one. My husband was a fan of it also! It was not as strong as the first one so we just add a bit more grounds per cup to make it a little stronger
11/27/2018

Scott
Too bland. Have to brew it extremely strong (50% more grounds than usual) to get much flavor, and even then it doesn't taste like much.
11/26/2018

Cherie
This was an average coffee to us. Thought I could detect a hint of raisin. It was tasty, but nothing special.
11/25/2018

Steven
This one was okay, but it tasted thin even when brewed stronger than I usually would; and the earthy raisin taste detracted from the overall flavor for me.
11/22/2018

Lei
Bland taste, very water down. Taste better if you use less water to brew the coffee.
11/18/2018

Chris
It's fine coffee, just a little too light on the roast. A good house blend, but I'm not a huge fan of house blends .
11/17/2018

Amanda
This was my least favorite so far. I did not care for the taste at all. It reminded me of diner coffee.
11/17/2018

Keenan
Honestly, did not at all like this coffee. I found it to be poorly balanced with an overwhelming amount of oxidative fruit qualities. Like a punch of raisin. It also was listed as sweet, but I got more tart fruitiness out of it. When I think of body in beverages, I think the differences between whole milk and skim. This coffee did not at all feel like a bigger body it was tart, bright, acidic, and thin. And not at all for me. Quite literally the opposite of what I look for in a coffee. To the point where I switched my roast preference on the settings page.
I french pressed this, I used a pour over, and I cold brewed it. None were to my liking.
11/15/2018

Bradley
Not exactly a coffee to write home about, a very solid "OK".
11/15/2018

Karen
I could drink this every day. It only lasted three days.
11/13/2018

Alena
really enjoyed this one!

Victoria
Wonderful, full bodied coffee. Very smooth. Most prominent flavor was the cashew!
10/31/2018

Cameron
This was a little bit better than the last. But it was still far to earthy of a blend. I prefer light bodied and fruity blends. The roast level on this was perfect but the nutty and chocolate flavors usually are not my go tos.
10/26/2018

Jesse
Kinda rough!
10/21/2018

Jordan
A little light
10/18/2018

Jacob
Smooth and tasty. Liked it better than the previous blend.
10/17/2018

Nina
Decent but still fairly bland flavor, not much to write home about.
10/17/2018

Jordan
I really enjoy the mild flavor provided by this coffee. This coffee tastes very similar to the last bag I received. I've enjoyed both very much.
10/16/2018

Brian
Enjoyed the subtle change. Good stuff
10/12/2018

Erica
I didn't like the taste of this coffee. There was a weird after taste that didn't mesh with the rest of the coffee. Way too mild
10/12/2018

Frederick
Lacking in flavor. Bitter. I think I am looking forward something more smooth and a bit more bold
10/10/2018

Thomas
A solid coffee, fairly basic flavor.
10/9/2018

Rafael
Nice rounded coffee, brewed in a Bon Mac pourover. The raisin notes are definitely there. Acidity is present but not overpowering and is a nice compliment to the earthy notes. Overall a balanced blend with some good quality beans. Would recommend for those who are not usually fans of citrus in their coffee but want to try out that note without being overpowered by it.
10/8/2018

Lorraine
Not a stand out but still good
10/6/2018

Craig
really good and enjoyed it more than my first coffee. Roast level met expectations. The coffee’s characteristics seem very balanced and smooth.
10/3/2018

Jennifer
nice! all around tasty. I cold brew my coffee and i like it when there is a natural sweetness to the coffee because i usually just do a splash of almond milk and no sweetener.
10/2/2018

Kasey
Coffee seemed weak and unremarkable. My wife called it hotel lobby coffee. I think that we like med-dark roast rather than just med-roast
10/1/2018

Shruti
So I brewed this in my cold brew pitcher, and it was very full-bodied which I loved!
Lots of warmth and very rich in flavor. Perfect kind of drink during the fall.
Also noticed a chocolate-y after taste which was nice.
10/1/2018

Courtney
The Wife: This coffee grew on me. Possibly due to my brewing and too much water in an americano the first time. I typically like a bolder richer coffee than this, but this was good. Not my favorite - but not bad.

The Husband: Could definitely taste the nutty flavor. Really enjoyed this. Very smooth. Not as powerful as what we normally drink but liked it a lot.
9/23/2018

alena
Seemed light but full of flavor. I guess I like it heavier. Not sure!!
9/22/2018

Jerrod
This is truly an excellent blend of coffee! You guys hit this nail perfectly on the head. Great aroma! Great taste! Great blend of flavors. Not too bitter, but just enough to enjoy. Keep bags like this coming!
9/13/2018

Brandon
Super smooth.
8/30/2018

Sima
Preferred coffee number 1, citrus notes in this one I felt overpowered the smoothness.
8/24/2018

Kyle
Not as full bodied as anticipated. Took some time to dial in grind.
8/23/2018

John
Good and smooth.
8/20/2018

Thomas
Fruity with a nutty backend. Medium body and low acidity. A slight coco aroma but does not seem to persist.
8/17/2018

Mollie
I really liked this coffee
8/17/2018

JOSHUA
I absolutely loved it! It was definitely sweeter than any coffee I have had before. (Although my past experiences are still lacking in diversity at this point.)
8/7/2018

Ezzy
The smell and taste wasnt as flavorful as I had hoped
8/6/2018

Randy
Favorite to Date
8/1/2018

Javier
I can taste the balance and caramel notes in this coffee. I think it is on the light side. So I’ve been blending the beans 2/3’s with 1/3 collectivo red white and blue heeler. I put Day Tripper over Metric
7/30/2018

David
Excellent balance of sweet and earthy notes
7/27/2018

Jayson
Better than the last. Like the heavier roast and body.
7/26/2018

Laura
It was just OK. It really just didn't taste very strong or had any real taste and although i drank it every day i never got that "yes this is a great coffee" feeling that i got from some of the others.
7/26/2018

Christopher
Good. Nothing stands out as memorable.
7/24/2018

Travis
I really liked this. It was super mild but I also had to replace my pour over kettle after I finished this so I might not have brewed it optimally. However, the flavor was on point.
7/20/2018

Mohammed
My favorite, Balanced, flavored, and has rich taste
7/19/2018

Jonathan
This is now my second coffee and I can tell some differences between the 2. This one has less of that acidic kick in the front and more bitterness at the end. I like that combination better. So my first review was inflated. I enjoy this coffee more. Now having the 2 coffees i think the less acidic taste the more i will like it.
7/14/2018

Ivonne
Nice and smooth. Perfect for quiet/slow mornings.
7/13/2018

Ashley
We loved this one!
7/13/2018

Kallie
The flavors all came together very nicely. It was a great cup of coffee to get my morning started. The first morning we brewed, I could smell the chocolate. Loved the flavor profile.
7/5/2018

Robert
I could never get this coffee right.
7/4/2018

Rachel
Love love love one of my favorites so far.
6/28/2018

Jennifer
I love this coffee! My espresso is smooth and sweet and wonderful! I don't like adding anything to it because its SO good just by itself!
6/27/2018

Cindy
Also very very good
6/24/2018

Kamil
Even better than the first coffee! I enjoy the rich full bodied taste. The flavor notes are distinct. It's a very smooth, tasty blend.
6/22/2018

Devon
Very good overall coffee. Tasting notes of almond butter, honey and raisin are spot on. Will definitely drink this again.
6/20/2018

Brendan
This was decent as a pourover in the Chemex. Nice caramel flavors, the chocolate was also nice but a bit lacking.

This was not great for espresso.

Overall, okay when prepared with a Chemex.
6/16/2018

shy
Excellent Blend. Smooth, balanced and fresh.
6/14/2018

Kevin
bitter without much depth of flavor; tried both stronger and weaker but both tasted weak and bitter
6/10/2018

Chris
As compared to the Gold Folks blend, this was just a little too subtle for us and lacked the bigger, bolder flavors we loved. Wouldn't drink again.
6/5/2018

Eric
I have to say what Mistobox said i was getting...i didn’t get. I got the company but the coffee i got had raisin,honey and almond butter. I have to say this was a most pleasant surprise. The smell was heavenly. The brew smelt just as good as the beans. Now the important part.

The taste was so smooth and you really get an equal amount of each flavor with each sip. This is a great coffee and I look forward to trying more Metric coffee beans.
6/4/2018

Robert
Great job on this pick! I have nothing else to say except it's a solid cup of coffee, great flavor, and it is indeed full bodied.
6/2/2018

Sean
I liked how balanced this coffee was.
5/27/2018

Aaron
One of the best you have sent us! Loved it!
5/23/2018

Bannus
couldn't get anything exciting out of this one. very bland.
5/21/2018

James
Fine Ground, pour over.
One of the coffees that do not turn to dust or clog a grinder.

Like a country home in the woods, rustic and dangerous. Like a romance mystery book.
5/16/2018

Diana
Very tasty and light!
5/12/2018

Zachary
Very balanced and full-bodied. Smelled like pastries too.
5/9/2018

Tim
Pretty good
5/9/2018

Theodore
Excellent coffee. Smells absolutely amazing! Great tasking coffee either hot or cold
5/8/2018

Shannon
This was not my favorite. It was a bit to harsh/bitter when brewed as espresso.
5/4/2018

Tyler
Was lovely and mild. Something I think we would continue to enjoy. That said it may be a little milk chocolate heavy. If chocolate we would prefer darker.
5/2/2018

Alexis
Finding it to be sour for some reason. More floral flavors than I would expect for a house blend. Tweaking the grind and brewing method to see if I can get flavors that match the description more. My palate is also very unsophisticated so I may have no idea what I'm talking about.

Also noticed that when I grind the beans the size is very uneven. I have a hand burr grinder and thought maybe it was my method but I tried using other beans on the exact same setting and the grind was much more even so I'm thinking there's something about this roast that creates and uneven grind that translates into an uneven brew. Again...I really don't know what I'm talking about.
5/2/2018

Ray
Ya this is dynamite. Very clean. Maybe too clean?? Very well balanced. Loved it! Also I’m from Chicago so it was nice to get a taste of home. I also have met Darko back in the day at his shop in wicker park. Great guy!
4/30/2018

Justin
Solid coffee, seems like a crowd pleaser. Very milk chocolate like.
4/29/2018

Rebecca
Tasted sour to me. And I would like a bit stronger brew.
4/25/2018

Matthew
The coffee was good, and had a good aroma, but seemed a little on the weaker side.
4/18/2018

Ben
I have had a chance to have some cups of this second coffee. While I do like it better than the first coffee, it still wasn't quite what I like. While it's ok coffee, I didn't get that "damn this is good coffee" reaction.

This coffee, while less bitter than the last, doesn't seem to have much of a flavor profile at all. The coffee seems very "thin." I would like something with a little more flavor, but not smoky or bitter flavor.
4/15/2018

Evan
Traditional house taste with a hint of ash. Better on rich brew setting.
4/13/2018

Thernell
I really like this one! It has some of the great qualities of the last coffee, but has a little more kick.
4/12/2018

Alexis
The chocolate flavor really jumped out at me, sans any cream or sugar this almost tasted like a specialty brew. Very pleasant cup of coffee going down.
4/10/2018

Geoffrey
This coffee has been my favorite so far. Would be a 5 star if it had a slightly bolder flavor. But that's the equivalent of the cherries on top of a very delicious sundae. I like the semi-sweet finish on the back end and the velvety mouthfeel of this one.
4/5/2018

Yaron
Very good. Lots of flavor and balanced.
4/1/2018

David
Possibly my wife's favorite of the two so far. Doesn't seem as rich to me, but good balanced flavor, easy drinking. Better when hot.
3/23/2018

Jenifer
I loved this! It was the perfect amount of sweetness and body! Not too strong either!
3/20/2018

Chris
Has a bitter taste, that almost tastes like it’s burnt right at the front end. Goes down ok though. Maybe the chocolate gives an odd taste. Hell if I know, I’m a novice. And then I turn around and add sweet cream anyway. But something about it’s initial taste it’s poignant, like my wife’s Keurig coffee. Maybe thats just because “bold” coffee tastes like that.

Again - I’m novice. Take it for what it’s worth. This could be great coffee, it’s just not my cup of tea.
3/17/2018

C. Scott
Not bad, maybe a bit light.
3/17/2018

Emeril
I now use a chemex. While the aroma from this batch was more preferable, i felt the flavor was much weaker.
3/17/2018

Matthew
Surprisingly strong - great pic here.
3/14/2018

Michael
Good coffee, but I don't love it. Can't really taste the caramel. Also, I don't really understand what "full bodied" means yet. :)
3/9/2018

Amy
well balanced, nutty, works well with aeropress method we use. would still like something that has a more unique flavor, that stands out beyond being a good quality standard coffee.
3/4/2018

Jason
Balanced, good body, hints of caramel. Great coffee.
3/3/2018

Brian
Good, but less flavorful than the first. Fewer layers and complexity. More of a 3.5 star than 3. Still very nice. I would repurchase the Good Folks before the Metric.
2/28/2018

Justin
I felt this was on the light side of full-bodied, but still enjoyable. I didn't taste the citrus, but the lighter bodied reminded me of citris drinks. The caramel and baking spice notes shown through and made for a sweeter cup of coffee than what I'm used to. It was well-balanced, but the taste itself wasn't anything special. It neither excited it disgusted. If I understand house blends correctly, that's by design, but I look forward to a less safe coffee and something with more personality.
2/27/2018

Gervie
Initial thought, not as good as the prior shipments, just ok.
2/26/2018

Jonathan
My wife loved the blend. It was actually a nice change from what we were buying.
2/25/2018

Corey
I'm still thinking it's the "full bodied" that I'm not quite in love with, but I'm still not sure. That seems to be the common factor between this one and the one last month.
2/25/2018

Keegan
Best morning blend ever
2/24/2018

Westin
Very good, wouldn't mind getting this again
2/24/2018

Michael
We really liked this one.
2/20/2018

Jesse
It was ok for me. It was smooth but I didn't pick up lots of flavor. I think I like coffee to be more bitter.
2/18/2018

Matt
Much better than the first patch
2/15/2018

Morgan
My favorite coffee so far.
2/14/2018

Robert Ross
Decent. Some good notes.
2/13/2018

Justin
This coffee has been great! It has a great balance with almond and caramel notes and lots of sweetness coming through.
2/13/2018

Alice
Nice blend. Lighter bodied. Citrus overtones.
2/10/2018

Brian
A little bland for my taste. The "caramel" notes come through as just sour. Maybe its that the "chocolate" or "full-bodied" are just under represented, so this one left me wanting more of something.
2/9/2018

Sean
Very good roast. Again almost a 5 but not quite. Would drink again.
2/7/2018

Lynne
Sent the previous one before I finished with the notes. I enjoyed this shipment more than the previous beans. Very smooth and mild.
2/7/2018

Adam
Delicious coffee! Smooth and balanced. Would definitely get again! Also, I loved the packaging. Very ingenious!
2/6/2018

Stephanie
This coffee tasted bitter and sour, not nearly as good as the first bag we received.
2/2/2018

Alessandro
This coffee is in the lighter side of medium, imparting its notes chocolate and caramel with an additional, very pleasant cherry note.
1/30/2018

Barry
I waited too long to rate this! I had visitors who brought coff its them, and now I’m a bit confused.
1/30/2018

Paige
Would prefer something a little bit bolder
1/29/2018

Clayton
Packaging A+
Loved the full body flavor. Bloomed up in the French press immaculately!
1/28/2018

Deborah
Overall I liked this coffee, but I'm starting to think I'll be happier with somewhat darker roasts. This one is very easy drinking, and I definitely get the fruit notes and sweetness. It has a finish that I can't identify and I'm not crazy about, but overall a good coffee.
1/28/2018

FRANK
I guess ... somewhere in between the first two choices, will produce a stronger coffee aroma, which will transform into a richer smoother, coffee taste.
1/27/2018

Mark
Wife and I both enjoyed this coffee. She enjoyed it slightly more than the previous one, Day Tripper. The bag lists "Cherry" as one of the tasting notes and that's mainly what I tasted.
1/25/2018

James
Taste is alright. It doesn't seem to have much caffeine.
1/25/2018

Taylor
Enjoyed this blend.
1/24/2018

Jennifer
Kind of sour.
1/22/2018

Andy
Great cup of coffee. Balanced, citrusey and baking spice notes easy to find.
1/22/2018

Benjamin
Pretty good, but neither as clean as I like in a session coffee nor as complex as I like in a dessert or aperitif coffee. Makes for a good breakfast coffee, but there isn't quite enough acidity to stand up to heavier foods.
1/22/2018

Elizabeth
Good, but fairly generic. Not as strong flavored or satisfying as what we usually drink.
1/20/2018

Haolan
Seemed a bit plain/single flavor.
1/19/2018

Serena
Enjoyed this very much! One of my favorites coffees from Metric is their Stanley's blend
1/19/2018

Meredith
Delicious!
1/19/2018

Abe
I really enjoyed this coffee! Not quite as much as the one before though. This coffee was much more mellow in the French Press and even more relaxed in the Chemex than the Day Tripper Blend. As a matter of fact, the Day Tripper Blend will be my new standard for coffee profile until you find me something even better! You guys do an awesome job, and I love the coffee you get for me.
1/18/2018

patricia
Very much the chocolate flavor but would not consider it full bodied. Really had what I would describe as a "weak" coffee flavor. I would like stronger coffee flavor. This reminded me of the type of bottomless coffee served in a diner, not bad but not a lot of flavor. I tried adding more beans but to no avail.
1/17/2018

Cody
It was a little weak for me.
1/14/2018

Daniel
OK. Coffee tastes somewhat burnt to me.
1/10/2018

Shaun
Thought it was OK
1/9/2018

Kindra
Had a really sharp finish. Wasn't super flavorful
1/9/2018

MARSHALL
Better than the last however i think we need to switch to a dark roast, my wife is only happy if they are super strong.
1/8/2018

Amanda
We liked this better than the first coffee we had (Brazilian Black Diamond). It was a little light on the roast though. The flavors overall were balanced and enjoyable!
1/7/2018

Daniel
I liked the rich bold flavor this has. I'm a fan of Metric coffee. I had their Endless Light custom blend a couple years ago when they did a collaboration with one of my favorite bands O'Brother.
1/6/2018

Andrew
I liked this coffee a little better but would still like a little but more fruity or other interesting notes.
1/3/2018

JANET
I liked this one better than the first one you sent. It's still a little bitter and could be smoother.
1/1/2018

Ollie
Subtle but really delicious.
1/1/2018

Albert
Easy drinker. I pick up caramel and small cherry notes. Not huge fan of fruit flavors but this was subtle enough. The chocolate flavor is that of dark chocolate.
12/31/2017

Delecious! Lots of unique flavor. Can taste the chocolate with a smoky flavor that remains on your palate. One of our favorites so far.

James
We really liked this blend. To be honest, it's probably a little unfair that I'm rating this at the same time as the Klatch Columbian - we might have given this 5 stars if we hadn't had Klatch right after. The only negative mark vs the Klatch is that the blend didn't a strong enough single character to make it stand out. So really great coffee, but slliiiigghtttlllyy less enjoyable relative to the Klatch.
12/27/2017

Kara
My husband and I enjoyed it, but it skewed a little too sweet for us. We like notes of chocolate but the predominant characteristic was "sweet." Also, the bag doesn't highlight "caramel;" it actually mentions "cherry" which makes more sense to what we tasted.
*Updated on 1/15/18: we liked our most recent coffee more than this so I downgraded this*
12/26/2017

Jess
Smooth but a little pale flavor-wise. Very crisp . Subsequent brews were sour, but that was cured by reducing the grind size to extract a little more. The simple flavor made it fun to play with grind size/steep times to find the best flavor.
12/21/2017

Andrew
Very smooth, but not very complex. Balance of acidity is perfect. Straightforward bodied taste into a slight cherry after tone. Beans are fresh, but the blended taste could be a little more interesting.
12/21/2017

Kevin
I wish I could give it 6 stars. Above and beyond great coffee. I loved it so much, I started following Metric on Instagram. I speak very highly to everyone about Metric.
12/17/2017

marcus
A nice balance between fruit and chocolate flavors and a nice sweet finish.
12/15/2017

juan
Too bitter
12/13/2017

Laurie
Tasty, and smells wonderful. I liked htis.
12/10/2017

Amir
This was much better! Flavor was more subtle, clean and soft but it smelled amazing and the art on the bag was neat.
12/9/2017

Lisa
Great coffee. A little bolder than we normally drink but not unpleasant or overpowering. Would really be 4.5 stars, but didn't see it as that "holy cow" that a 5 star coffee would be. Thoroughly enjoyed, and would get it again in the future. Brewed in clever dripper, and pour over.
12/9/2017

Brandon
Very good
11/25/2017

Jessica
Too fruity
11/24/2017

Derek
Excellent. Slightly fruity but not overwhelming, chocolate flavor is obvious but does not take over the cup. Coffee is smooth and enjoyable. I like it about the same as the Day Tripper. Roast level is better than Day Tripper, as is the smell. I enjoyed the light chocolate flavor, and the cherry was surprisingly evident but did not disgust me as it sometimes does in other beverages.
11/23/2017

Pete & Eydie
Tasted okay - was much better as an espresso shot. I wondered with this batch if it was old - roasted too long ago and the key flavors had dissipated.
11/21/2017

Brian
Great flavor and really smooth. I found roast level to be great as well. I liked the sweetness and citrus notes. Loved the coffee and I would buy it again.
11/20/2017

Nathan
Great coffee! Very smooth and balanced, a perfect medium roast. I usually prefer darker roasts, but the complexity of flavors won me over on this one. Slightly acidic, smooth, and with a touch of sweetness with the cherries. Highly recommend!
11/19/2017

Nikki
This blend was very tasty, and I really loved the packaging design. If I had to pick, I think I would still prefer the last blend; although it was very close. If I'm remembering correctly, the last blend tasted fuller and toastier while this blend was crisper and more sour. I think I would like this blend more if it felt richer to the taste. I liked the roast levels of both.
11/19/2017

Daniel
Decent sweet/fruit flavor but not a strong enough body to hold them up for long. Overall, a decent, non-offensive roast.
11/17/2017

Trish
excellent coffee. enjoyed this very much
11/16/2017

Karen
This is an excellent blend. Smooth but rich.
11/15/2017

Amy
I think this coffee was a little bland compared to what we are used to drinking. We tend not to gravitate to House blends as we prefer a little more bold and complex flavor profile. This holds especially true with the first cup of coffee of the day. With that being said the coffee was easy to drink and would make a great second cup for the day.
11/14/2017

Jessica and Justin
This one smelled great but the flavor was a little strong. It didn't have a crisp, light after taste. We preferred our first bag to this one.
11/13/2017

Scott
I didn't get any citrus, but the Chocolate and caramel notes were very present. Great flavor hot through cooling. I really enjoyed this one.
11/12/2017

Susan
This one is my least favorite so far. It is less rich tasting, and has more acidity than I like. It’s not bad, but not my favorite.
11/11/2017

Laura
Eh, it was OK. I would not call it either rich or full-bodied, and more caramel than chocolate. It had a slight sour aftertaste with both pour-over and aeropress that I could not get rid of. Espresso (ristretto doubles) was fine.
11/10/2017

Cameron
More rounded taste than the first coffee. I enjoyed this one a little more.
11/10/2017

Kathy
Would prefer a darker roast.
11/7/2017

Rachel
My husband and I both loved this one! Perfect balance of flavorful but not too bitter!

Thank you
11/6/2017

Karthik
We love this coffee for it's rich taste. We don't mind trying a coffee blend slightly darker n more oily than the house blend. But we definitely like the richness of coffee and don't prefer sourness in coffee.

Thanks.
11/5/2017

Linda and Neil
Enjoyed this more than the first....prefer to try one without chocolate flavor next....
11/3/2017

Sara
We liked this one a bit less than the first. It felt a little flat, perhaps not acidy enough. Liked the caramel in it, but couldn't really taste the chocolate. Loved the packaging!
11/2/2017

Michael
Very full and satisfying taste. Almost feels like it should be darker, but overall a great blend
11/2/2017

Jimmy
The description of this coffee is accurate with one exception. I would not consider this a full bodied coffee as it feels lighter...medium bodied at best. The sweetness is there for sure as is the caramel/milk chocolate/toffee notes. A little too sweet for my tastes as I like my coffee with a tsp of sugar and milk.
10/29/2017

Michael
A bit bland, I didn't find it full bodied at all. It's good tasting coffee but otherwise forgettable. I would have preferred something richer with more depth.
10/29/2017

Fallon
This house blend from Metric coffee is wonderful! I have really enjoyed how smooth this cup is and the flavors go so well together. I was a little worried when it said it had a hint of cherries but was very surprised how great it tasted! One other thing I was really impressed with was how Metric coffee gave you a resealable bag. I have not seen that before and wish everyone would do that. Samantha has done such a great job picking my first two bags of coffee. I am loving MIstobox!
10/28/2017

Ryan
I really enjoyed this one!!!
10/26/2017

Steven
A solid cup, with initial cherry notes and a sweet chocolate finish. Good for everyday drinking, but would be more exciting with some more complexity (fruity/floral notes or a tad more acidity).
10/26/2017

Jaime
Very good flavor and not bitter!
10/23/2017

Lisa
Not our favorite. Almost too full bodied to really taste the tasting notes.
10/23/2017

Tony
A very smooth blend!
10/23/2017

Garrett
Nice coffee. The flavor was a little more robust on this one compared to the first shipment, which was nice. The sweetness on the back end is really tasty. The spice came out more to me than citrus. Something darker next time would be nice.
10/23/2017

David
Milder flavor than I expected.
10/23/2017

chris
A bit of a light coffee...is flavourful but not as much body as other light roasts
10/23/2017

Christopher
This coffee was full bodied - liked it better than the first shipment. Really liked the deep chocolate notes. Super smooth and clean. More like this please!
10/21/2017

Marc
nice smooth coffee - seems a little low on caffeine tho
10/21/2017

Blake
I enjoyed the first coffee more than this one.
10/18/2017

Mally
This coffee was our least favorite so far. The flavor to us was flat, not well rounded.
10/18/2017

Mally
This coffee was our least favorite so far. The flavor to us was flat, not well rounded.
10/18/2017

regina
Definitely "clean and balanced." Thoroughly enjoyed this blend.
10/18/2017

Douglas
its quite good.
10/17/2017

Jill
My husband and I both liked the earthy taste of this coffee. I know it doesn't have any bearing on the beans inside, but the packaging was super cute too.
10/15/2017

Jim
I like it a lot! it's a really well done coffee, and is incredibly smooth and balanced.
10/15/2017

Katharine
The chocolate smell when I ground this was incredible. I brewed in the kalita wave. Smooth, definite chocolate flavor but not overpowering, nice body, low acidity and really interesting. I'm really enjoying this! Delicious. Also love that it's local (I live in Chicago but hadn't tried Metric yet).
10/14/2017

Kenn
Actually prefer the first over this second selection. To really taste a coffee I like to sip it at room temp. This second selection left me with a slight bitter taste and was not a sweet and flavorful as the first.
10/12/2017

Zach
Was kind of basic! No unique flavor notes! Still a solid coffee.
10/12/2017

Jason
It's on the lighter roast scale of where I enjoy my coffee, but it has a full body and it's not too sweet. I worry when coffees use cherry and Carmel as discriptors, but this one is more complex than some of the overly fruity and sharper flavored medium roastes out there. A solid medium roast coffee that won't alienate a palate that likes darker roasts.
10/11/2017

Daniel
Moderate strength flavor with a round aftertaste of chocolate and cherries. This is not for everyone but if you like cherries which I do it is a hit.
10/10/2017

Emily
This blend has been our favorite so far! We like dark roast coffees and this one is a bit lighter but the taste does not disappoint. Full-bodied with a hint of chocolate!
10/10/2017

Kris
I liked the house blend, but I liked the day tripper better blend better. I think the day tripper blend had more of a carmel flavor to it and I think I like that. Over all I prefer the day tripper over the house blend.
10/9/2017

Nick
Made using Chemex brew method, 28 grams of coffee and 360 grams of water. Not much flavor hence the Meh review.
10/8/2017

Terry
Sorry, did not care of chocolate-cherry flavor
10/7/2017

Gina
I thought Metric Coffee's house blend was ok. The beans were a light brown, but the coffee tasted a little burnt at the end of each sip. Compared to the coffee I received in the last shipment and think they are relatively equal.
10/6/2017

Matt
Metric Coffee make a great first introduction with their House Blend. Balanced, juicy, and, somehow, smooth. The folks at Metric meticulously craft a house blend that is pleasant at any time of the day.

A few things help place this coffee above average. First, I was pleasantly surprised to open the subscription box and find a sticker alongside my coffee (Stickers never hurt). Second, this coffee aged well. It's flavor shifted as it got older. It started off with strong cherry notes with an earthy finish. Ten days after the roast date and the flavor profile was more in line with the tasting notes. In short, we liked this coffee and never seemed to get tired of it. I look forward to more from Metric.
10/3/2017

Jordan
really nice sweet chocolate flavor. brewed with v60 tip pour slower than normal for better flavor IMHO
10/2/2017

Michael
This works well as a pour-over and it is a predictably good cup.. Have also used on the stovetop and it pulls into a much more acidic shot than expected but it is definitely a solid shot as well.
10/1/2017

Michael
This was great for cold brew, which is what I'm looking for.
10/1/2017

Jodi
Loved this blend, rich, def full bodied, delicious, my favorite to date.
9/29/2017

Ben
Of all of the coffee I have had so far, this Metric house blend has been the most balanced. It wasn't to earthy which was what I was afraid of. It was a nice sweet coffee without being to fruity. It gets a five not because it was my favorite flavor, but it was good, while having the best branding I've seen so far and the sealable package. Everyone should be doing that!
9/28/2017

Lonni
Bland, boring, and a little on the bitter side. Definitely not the magic I was hoping for but drink-able I suppose.
9/28/2017

Nate
Didn't find it quite as rich as the description indicated. Was good but a little "flat."
9/26/2017

Katie
We enjoyed the House Blend, it was rich and sweet and full of flavor.
9/26/2017

Lisa
Not a lot of flavor
9/23/2017

John
I lile it being full bodied.
9/23/2017

Julie
I am not a fan of this blend. Chocolate with cherry hints are lost on me. Give me a full robust coffee and I'm happy!
9/22/2017

Kevin
While a good coffee, it did not quite have the great flavor the first coffee had.
9/20/2017

Troy
Quite good. Totally got into this one. Nice sweet richness up front with a clean savory finish.
9/18/2017

Chris
Delicious in a french press this morning. I don't usually buy these kind of flavor profiles, but I might start doing so. Also, I appreciated the new roaster. I'll have to keep an eye out for their other products!
9/17/2017

Patrick
Really nice find. I liked the slight fruit in this.
9/16/2017

Amhed
Really liked this one
9/14/2017

Karina
Loved it
9/13/2017

Blake
I am very satisfied with both the flavor and the "lightness" of the coffee. It is distinct, but never overbearing. As a bonus, I really like the bag, too; it's gorgeous. I would be interested in other coffees from this roaster for sure.
9/13/2017

Jacob
Loved it! Such great flavor on my chemex. Not as good on the v60 but still a great coffee.
9/9/2017

Benjamin
I actually loved this. Was delicious.
9/8/2017

Jared
I did not like this one as much as my previous coffee. I brewed a couple different ways (pour over w/ Kalita and also french press), but both came out tasting sour. It was surprising the french press was sour because usually it makes a smooth, well-rounded cup. I did not notice any caramel/chocolate taste notes mentioned in the description. Instead it had a basic bold coffee flavor that was too sour for my preference.
9/7/2017

James
not memorable
9/6/2017

Douglas W
Like the sweetness and brightness on this one. Spicy in a good way.
9/5/2017

Suzanne
Mine was "chocolate, cherry, and sweet." This is some of the best coffee I've ever had. Perfectly roasted, not burnt at all, exactly the flavor I was looking for. I could drink this the rest of my life!!
9/3/2017

Gaitano
Perfect amount of roastyness but still full bodied. Love the notes of caramel chocolate and cherry hints. A winner for sure. Great way to open your eyes.
9/1/2017

Logan
Think I want to try more Full Bodied coffee
9/1/2017

Carsen
This seems safe but still has those notes of chocolate I love. I agree with others that it's not very memorable. Metric's House Blend is very good but tasted light, not very bold.
8/31/2017

David
OK but too sweet - I prefer a stronger coffee flavor
8/31/2017

CK
Not bad, needs a little more character.
8/29/2017

Adam
It's OK. There's a tart aftertaste and that's pretty much all I can taste after the first sip (and for a long while after I've had the cup). I'm pretty sure I've had this blend in the past and I don't recall this problem, so maybe it's a less-than-stellar batch??
UPDATE: The more I drink this coffee, the less I like it. The aftertaste is very offputting. It's terrible in a Chemex and barely passable via immersion and pourover.
8/29/2017

Seetha
Doesn't disappoint.
8/28/2017

Rachel
We felt like it was a solid good coffee choice. Well balanced, maybe didn't knock our socks off, but would drink it any day. Thanks for the find!
8/28/2017

FORREST
Not very flavorful, not awful I just like coffees with a little more flavor in the cup.
8/27/2017

Abhaya
Great coffee. Mellow and flavorful. I am enjoying every cup.
8/27/2017

Kathryn
The flavor felt less pronounced even after experimenting with bean quantity, grind, and cold brewing. Less memorable to me.
8/26/2017

Robert
Enjoyed the rich flavors.
8/23/2017

Jennifer
Definitely has a strong cherry note more than I prefer but still full bodied which I enjoy. I don't hate it, but I will say I prefer the batch I got last month.
8/22/2017

Arthur
Great coffee, had a good bold flavor without the heavy bitterness of other coffees.
8/20/2017

Mike
Thought this coffee was good. I think I liked the previous roast a little better. I think maybe I like a little less of the sweet/chocolately notes but still enjoyed this blend.
8/18/2017

Stephen
Very well balanced, and smooth mouth feel.
8/18/2017

Eryn
Love the blend and balance of this coffee.
8/16/2017

Michaela
Subtle chocolate flavor, very balanced.
8/16/2017

Morgan
This is the best coffe I've had so far.
8/15/2017

Andrew
Initially tasted sour, lowered the brewing temperature for the espresso, and it was better, the sour was gone but still tasted a little bitter. Did not taste much at all like the description to me.
8/14/2017

Kiersten
This coffee has a great strong flavor that was reminicent of chocolate with a bit of sweetness. We really enjoyed using it for our morning espresso as a great way to wake up.
8/12/2017

Paul
We loved this coffee. The chocolate and cherry notes we balanced and delicious.
8/10/2017

Hsiao-Ling
I like this coffee slightly better than the Good Folks Day Tripper Blend; however, I'm still getting the sour/acidic aftertaste which I do not prefer. What I do like is Colombian coffee.
8/8/2017

Betty and Larry
This coffee is weak tasting, even after I used more scoops than usual.
8/5/2017

James
A well balanced cup but seems a bit thin.
8/3/2017

Chris
Really good. Right down the middle and what you'd expect of a house blend.
8/1/2017

Mike
Really enjoyed the balance both in a medium grind with Aeropress and a fine grind for Espresso
7/31/2017

Denise
Yum, could be darker?
7/31/2017

Karen
Very good!
7/31/2017

Rena
Too acidic
7/29/2017

Nick
Love everything about this. Strong and flavorful with great aroma, without being too dark. Would drink every day
7/27/2017

David
Thin coffee, weak taste, not a very good after taste.
7/26/2017

Jamie
Smooth & tasty.
7/24/2017

Lindsey
3.7 rating. It was hard to go from the espresso to this blend. It seems very light and I would like a darker blend. Still an overall good tasting coffee.
7/24/2017

Adam
A little too sweet for my liking.
7/23/2017

Robert
Too mild
7/21/2017

Damon
It's smooth and doesn't have a harsh after taste. The smell doesn't really make me excited to get up in the morning and the taste isn't really what I care for.
7/21/2017

Carrie
Super smooth! Perfect to drink black or with milk - iced or hot! My favorite so far!
7/20/2017

Bomin
Clean, borderline boring. Easy to brink, but somewhat forgettable
7/20/2017

Phil
Not as full and luxurious as the last shipment, it's more thin and bright. I've brewed it iced every time, but maybe I'll try a little more beans, or going a little less coarse on the grind. I'll come back and update if that changes things. UPDATE: more beans, finer grind just brought out more brightness.
7/19/2017

Michael
Nice flavor, well balanced.
7/18/2017

Dennis
This coffee was good, but I like to taste the coffee, it was a little weak for me.
7/18/2017

James
Pulled my first shot of this today and it is fantastic.
7/17/2017

Ann
Good, but not as excellent as our first shipment. Much more mild than the Atomic blend, which we loved.
7/13/2017

Travis
This was a really good coffee. I can definitely taste the cherry notes.
7/12/2017

Tash
This has been my favorite pick since signing up. It's full bodied but delicate and robust. Just wonderful overall! And I can't get over the packaging!
7/11/2017

Athar
This house blend has been enjoyable for me. It has the same smooth taste as other coffees with this similar flavor profile.
7/11/2017

Jacquelyn
Drinkable but I really prefer less sweet, and an even more bold roast flavor.
7/10/2017

Brian
very smooth - liked all the flavors. I enjoy the caramel flavors in this roast.
7/10/2017

Imtiazuddin
Probably the best coffee sent to me so far
7/10/2017

Josh
Very strong chocolate notes with no bitterness. Very good.
7/10/2017

Christopher
this was good, but not nearly as good as the anodyne tolima. Tasted a little on the dirty side...not as smooth
7/9/2017

John
DELICIOUS!!!
7/9/2017

LAWRENCE
Excellent.
7/8/2017

Harris
Terrible Taste. Bland and hope that my next batch is better.
7/7/2017

Brad
Not bad. Best way for me to describe: It left my mouth feeling a little dry with subtle hints of sour citrus aftertaste.
7/7/2017

Steven
Decent. I expected a little more flavor.
7/6/2017

Nicholas
Very tasty and has light flavors. Not very strong and great way to start my morning
7/6/2017

Sheryll
I wasn't a big fan of the caramel notes in this one.
7/6/2017

Zachary
I can't remember the details, but I know I enjoyed it!
7/6/2017

Alyssa
A Perfect 'Good Morning' Cup!
7/5/2017

Camille
Good flavor, but felt like it was lacking a little body.
7/5/2017

Mark
Nice flavor.. little closer to the robustness I prefer
7/4/2017

Dick
Did not think I would like this after reading the description but I do. Since I drink it black, it did not taste like I imagined and that was good. I like coffee that tastes like coffee and I imagined that this would not. Think I like the first one better.
7/4/2017

barbara
this coffee is delicious
7/4/2017

Lana
This may have been my favorite coffee so far, just ahead of The 1950 Verve. It's clean and light and not bitter/sour at all, with no burnt aftertaste. I'm noticing that my two favorites have "baking spices" in the description. While I still love my coffee with a healthy dose of unsweetened BetterHalf (so good!), I'm finding that between the Chemex and really good beans, I don't need or want all the sweet, sugary creamers or sweeteners I used before. I actually ran out of beans today because I find myself wanting to drink more than one cup in the mornings!
7/4/2017

Cecily
Dark & sharp tasting
7/4/2017

Anne
Delicious!!!!
7/3/2017

Alexandra
Love the subtle spiciness. Might be interested in something stronger in general.
7/3/2017

Ryan
Good coffee. Love the notes of chocolate and it was a good strength for me. Good cold or hot
7/3/2017

michelle
I felt like I could taste the "citrusy" notes more than the chocolatey notes. While it was full-bodied, it was not as much as the last one, which I enjoyed more. I did drink this without my usual splash of milk though! So that is exciting.
7/2/2017

Natalie
It's smooth with a hint of Carmel
6/30/2017

Scott
Best coffee mistobox has delivered.
6/29/2017

Jessica
I appreciate the sweetness of this blend. I also like that it has an earthy taste but still other flavors are noticeable. My only issue with this roast is the chocolate hints. This was also something I didn't like in my previous month's coffee. Is there a way to get sweet without chocolate?
6/28/2017

Patrick
I did not like this batch. Funny, felt like it was lite even though it is categorized as full body. I did change my cream up on this round, maybe that was different.
6/28/2017

Jason
Easy drinking and well rounded. You can't go wrong with this one. It's not acidic. Clean, balanced and sweet describes it perfectly. The flavors are not complex, but that's okay. It's also has nice body w/ good mouth fell. I'm really enjoying it!
6/28/2017

Gary Diane
Did not think this coffee had a good aroma, whole beans or when being brewed. Did not have as much flavor as the previous bag. Drinkable
6/28/2017

Mollie
Enjoyed the mellowness of this blend a lot--chocolate notes were greatly appreciated without being overwhelming. Was great with cream. It was a very good coffee for me to take to work every morning, easy to sip on without getting boring. Clean and balanced as described. Looking forward to trying this as a cold brew overnight.
6/27/2017

Erik
Really impressed with this blend. Clean flavors, well rounded.
6/27/2017

Kate
This coffee is excellent. We never made a bad cup and were disappointed when the bag was empty. The coffee beans smelled fabulous and brewed a nice smooth, chocolatey cup.
6/26/2017

Josh
Another really good coffee. I give it 4 stars also simply because I want a wider range of coffees to compare it too. I believe the notes are more subtle compared to the Verve "seabright." I will say that my wife prefers the Metric House Blend over Verve Seabright. For me it's up in the air, both are really good.
6/26/2017

Korey
Tastes great, Chicago is killing the coffee game.
6/26/2017

Andrew
Loved the body and the clean taste. It had a nice rich flavor and no bitterness. Brewed using hario pour-over.
6/26/2017

Jesse
I thought it was very good. Not bitter or sour. Tasted like something a fine restaurant would provide.
6/25/2017

Erik
Amazing!! Was a hit with the whole family. Probably my favorite so far!
6/24/2017

Cathy
It was pretty good. I loved the smell of the coffee when it first arrived, but the taste didn't quite live up to the initial smell. When I first opened the coffee it smelled a lot like caramel, but the taste wasn't nearly as sweet as the smell. Not bad at all, just an odd difference between the two that was hard to wrap my head around.
6/23/2017

Armando
Pretty smooth and non acidic! I like the caramel taste/smell! I usually do pour over and make two mason jars of cold brew. Gave it four stars because it wasn't anything special but was very good nonetheless.
6/19/2017

Ann
Too sweet
6/17/2017

not bitter at all, but a full, rich, flavorful sip

I really like this one--the roast wasn't overpowering, and the taste is smooth, balanced, with just enough richness to balance out some of the sweeter, fruitier flavors

Decent cup out of V60, although brewing with a chemex was a bit lacking. Notes of chocolate are forward and heavy, with spices on the finish note.

This roast is delicious! I'm looking forward to this coffee every morning right now. I love the full body without the bitter acidic aftertaste and the subtle sweetness.
6/13/2017

Courtney
easy to drink but not as much flavor depth as the previous bag.
6/7/2017

Tyler
Definitely think we like the subtly sweeter coffee blends. Prefer this one over the last coffee we received. I can't tell if we're diggin' the caramel or not though. Seems stronger in this blend than the last.

Nice big chocolate flavor with creamy mouthfeel from hario

This one was sadly not a hit with the group members, despite it having a similar flavor description as many of our favorites.

Gener
I like the sweetness of this coffee, I agree it is a smooth, balanced cup. Not acidic at all.
5/13/2017

Clive
Smooth and rich. Sweet, nutty flavor - not bitter. Only negative is that the coffee is very drying.
5/11/2017

Lorna
Might still be working on getting the coffee-water ratio correct on this one but finding it a little less enjoyable than the others
5/2/2017

Janice
Just ok. Sort of flat and bland. Not bitter or sour, but nothing special.
5/1/2017

Roy
I like the flavor and the aroma of this coffee. It has a nice smooth finish
4/10/2017

Caitlin
Didn't even need sugar, a first for me and coffee. Loved the heavy chocolate tones, spot on for me :)
4/10/2017

Darryl
I immediately noticed sweet fruity flavor which I really enjoyed, this coffee was easy to drink, nice balanced cup to start my mornings. I rated this as a 3 star but it really came in just under a 4 star review for me.

Elisa
A good, simple coffee, but nothing to write home about.
3/27/2017

Jose
Can definitely taste notes of sweet fruits, raisins.
3/23/2017

Sarah
Not well balanced to my palate. Somewhere between eh and ok.
3/22/2017

Dustin
With Chemex brewing the raisin notes really come through. This is a very good every day coffee.
3/21/2017

Although the beans are a little lighter than we typically enjoy. We like this coffee as much as we liked our first shipment. It is not acidic, sour or bitter. Very smooth which is most important.
3/20/2017

Michelle
Decent
3/16/2017

Rachel
This was ok, it didn't seem to have flavor I enjoyed. It didn't have a long finish.
3/14/2017

Erin
I really like the sweetness and flavor of this one
3/14/2017

Kelsey
Fragrant but not as bold in flavor as I usually prefer.
3/14/2017

Amber
Smoothe and very easy to drink. Love the chocolate undertones.
3/4/2017

David
Tastes like caramel. I also taste a hint of orange near the bottom of the shot.
2/25/2017

Alessandro
loved the flavor and sweetness. Not acidic at all, very sweet and flavorful.
2/17/2017

Michael
Makes a spot-on traditional espresso - smooth and sweet and light on fruit.
2/15/2017

Mike
This coffee is really tasty. I recently switched to a Chemex brew and this coffee is really smooth.
2/8/2017

Jonah
Great overall cup of coffee! I loved the balance of flavors and could not wait to drink it every morning! No complaints.
2/1/2017

Lauren
Good compared to the previous two. Great as a cold brew.
1/27/2017

Kristin
This was good!
1/27/2017

Wes
Nice flavor would like something a bit more bold
1/19/2017

Farooq
This coffee was just okay. I liked the Kickapoo one more despite the similar flavor profile.
12/24/2016

Layne
I think I enjoyed this coffee a little less than my previous one. But that doesn't mean I didn't still enjoy it. It was a nice balanced flavor, but a little more burnt/roasty than I would prefer. I tasted the chocolate notes which I really liked, and there was even a little nutty flavor when the coffee was at it's hottest that I liked. Overall, pretty good coffee.
12/16/2016

denisha
It's good. Maybe too much caramel for me.
12/14/2016

Frank
Not very rich and bold. It tastes kind of bland to me.
12/8/2016

TIMOTHY
I used my aeropress and it produce coffee nirvana with this blend . It left a lingering subtle sweetness . Amazing coffee
12/6/2016

Noah
Delicious, smooth, dark but not burnt flavor; perhaps slightly sweet and nutty
11/30/2016

Ryan
Nice acidity balance with the subtle citrus notes.
11/30/2016

Michael
Smooth
11/7/2016

Hasnain
Didnt care for the chocolate and fruity flavors. I prefer nutty flavors
11/1/2016

Arielle
Not bad, but a little too sweet and soft
10/29/2016

Scott
well balanced but not particular rich or deep in flavor. Was better in drip than chemex
10/20/2016

Shawn
This coffee is not a rich enough or bold enough for my taste. This coffee is on the sweet side and very light.
9/27/2016

Anne
Too bland, no flavor
9/18/2016

Drew
Love this one! Very smooth and lovely taste.
9/8/2016

Linda
Too light of a roast. Beans smelled good but when brewed it had to much acidity.
9/2/2016

Chris
I really like the slightly sweet with baking spices. Great brew!
8/8/2016

Brett
Another nice bean, but tastes like it was under roasted.
7/27/2016

Stepheny
Mellow but full flavored. Really well balanced, no acidity at all (brewed with Chemex). Just super nice.
7/25/2016

Jennifer
nice aroma and flavor
6/8/2016

Rob
Too light of a a roast resulting in an acidic flavor
6/3/2016

ben
Great flavor but weak and thin
6/1/2016

Esmeralda
Compared to other blends I have received from MistiBox, this house blend by Metric just falls short. It has a nice smooth taste but is lacking a nice full flavor pallet. I understand house blends are usually crafted to introduce someone to that roaster but I feel that Metric could have done better with this one
5/16/2016

Anthony
Definitely full bodied with a good bit of sweetness when half/half is added, Solid cup.
5/9/2016

While we favor light blends, this coffee was to light, not enough flavor.
5/7/2016

Marina
I really enjoyed the notes of caramel.
5/7/2016

James
A good cup of coffee, though maybe just a bit on the sweet side. Helps me deal with the pain of the alarm clock going off in the morning.
4/21/2016

Jason
Really really tasty. I almost gave it a 5...but this is the best I have had yet!
4/19/2016

Kent
Bland and confusing flavor.
4/11/2016

John
I found this a little bland or, maybe, too subtle for me. I did not enjoy it as much as some of the other selections I have had.
3/26/2016

Hannah
Really enjoyed it. Very light, subtle, but still flavorful. I usually enjoy my coffee with cream, but enjoyed drinking this one black, as well.
3/23/2016

Erin
WOW. I made the mistake of telling lots of coworkers about this one and letting them smell the bag... now I will probably run out of beans earlier than normal! This one is definitely my favorite so far! :)
3/16/2016

Peter
A little too light and sour taste for me.
3/13/2016

Douglas
This was average (2.5) and somewhat bland when prepared as espresso. Will try in the drip maker.
3/9/2016

Kisky
A little too light and sweet for me, with a sort of acidic aftertaste. A good coffee, just not the perfect one for me.
3/9/2016

Yingtao
Nice coffee. Love the sweetness.
3/3/2016

Andy
Good, but under roasted
2/24/2016

Ryan
Good, solid, brew! Makes a nice, simple cup of coffee.
11/29/2015

Arzen
A well-balanced blend. Citrus and spice, a warm concoction that urges you to sip longer with air. Loud slurp encouraged.
