Shrivats
Loved this for espresso, my favorite Mistobox in a while
3/20/2022

Ryan
SO GOOD!
2/23/2022

Daniel
I think 'full bodied' must be a codeword for 'acrid' because there is no discernible fruit in this coffee, nor caramel, just the unadulterated flavor of diner coffee that has sat on the burner all day. Not good.
1/18/2022

Anup
Not strong enough
4/19/2021

Michael
A simple high-quality coffee, but lacks depth.
1/27/2021

Betsy
Don’t think the favor matches the profile, but still a smooth drinking coffee.
12/4/2020

Adam
Really nice! Full bodied and delicious.
11/25/2020

Gibb
Excellent balance between bold espresso & brighter. Lots of flavor going on.
4/16/2020

Matthew
A really good quality coffee, with a truly spectacular aroma, but I found it to be very sour. I tried every trick I could think of with grind size, extraction temperature, shot length. Maybe it was just my technique, but I couldn’t seem to get it right. To be fair, I’m much more into the earthy/chocolate flavors, so I may have been trying to make this coffee taste different than it was supposed to taste.
4/14/2020

Curtis
Really love the flavor of DCR's Lucent. I taste more chocolate and caramel than I do fruit. It had a very consistent pull over the entire batch -- I never had to adjust the grind setting. Beautiful in the cup, and yummy on the taste buds.
4/2/2020

Robert
Too acidic, flat flavor.
10/18/2019

Laura
Loved this, a little light but very easy to pour and holds up over time
9/1/2019

Cade
Pleasant but not particularly interesting, especially in milk
8/1/2019

Steve
Good for lattes, but was a tad off.
7/30/2019

Jeremy
Deep flavor. Some bitter notes.
7/29/2019

Darren
Was very good
7/26/2019

Robust espresso.
2/11/2019

Glen
Very good. Lot’s of nice flavor, great smell from day 1 to day 14.
1/7/2019

Addison
Great flavor, good for espresso. Wouldn’t mind trying something slightly darker for espresso next time.
8/26/2018

Paul
This was incredible!!!
7/19/2018

Colin
Favorite coffee so far.
4/15/2018

Levi
Better than a lot of their stuff I guess but still kinda bland
3/1/2018

Mark
I particularly liked this light roast - one of the few I've tried that still has great body, is easy to grind and delivers a slightly lighter, more balanced flavor than most espresso roasts. I would give it 6 stars if I could.
2/15/2018

Lisa
Absolutely delicious!
6/15/2017

RAYMOND
Double shot with 4oz. of steamed milk. 18g. 30 seconds on the dot, didn't measure oz. Crema settled quickly. Slight bitterness, sweet caramel, scent of wood. It was hard for me to pick up the cherry. Great espresso, but I will reserve the 5 star for "mind blowing" taste.
5/24/2017

Jack
This was a very interesting blend. I really love Brazilian coffees in milk based espresso drinks. I also love Ethiopian coffees in general, but especially as espresso. Unfortunately, this coffee was extremely dark. It says it is a light roast, but this is the second darkest roast I've ever tried. While this coffee is excellent in espresso based milk drinks, it is one the worst as espresso
4/21/2017

Jeff
I love(d) it. My espresso machine has been acting up, so I never got a chance to try this out with that, but I tried both the Aeropress and the Chemex with the Lucent Blend, and found the Chemex coffee to be delicious. The Aeropress coffee came out a little more bitter than I prefer, but I may have to give it another go. I really could taste the caramel, nutty, cherry flavors. It's some solid, full-bodied stuff and wasn't overly fruity. I and my wife also enjoy adding a splash of milk to our coffees occasionally, so the Lucent Blend was good because it didn't end up seeming watered down, and the flavors didn't get lost.
4/17/2017

Pooneet
Little more oily than I normally use and slightly fruit forward but great coffee! The caramel flavors def came through here (I didn't get the nutty flavors). Tasted better with milk rather than an espresso shot. Would be happy to get this again.
4/2/2017

Carlos
Definitevely not good for espresso
3/31/2017

Greg
Indeed full bodied and caramel nuttiness, but a bit more roasty than I was expecting, . It had a creaminess about it that was interesting.
3/16/2017

Megan
really makes an excellent shot of espresso
3/12/2017

Nate
Best coffee thus far. Full bodied with zero bitter. Notes caramel but I sense strong hints of mocha. Brilliant!
2/26/2017

Grant
Very good and very enjoyable. I am only giving it a 4 stars because I am sure there is something better, there always is. I would definitely buy this again. Not sure if I pick up the caramel or nutty flavors.
2/22/2017

Emily
I liked this one for a good basic cup of coffee. It was a bit acidic, and I wish the flavor was a bit more complex, but overall it's really good!
2/21/2017

will
It was pretty good, problem is my cat nicked over my espresso machine and broke it before I could make some. So I French pressed it
Getting anot her espresso machine soon hopefully

This coffee has a good flavor; however, it has a bit of a strange after-taste. It definitely is full-bodied!
2/6/2017

QUENTARA
The taste was ok, pretty mild. The freshness was nice and had the best crema we've seen so far. The smell was AWFUL. It smelled somewhat rancid, like spoiled milk. I may be more sensitive to it because I'm pregnant but others agreed it wasn't pleasant. At first I couldn't bring myself to taste it but the smell didn't come through on the taste once I did.
2/2/2017

Ron
The coffee is fine. I tried it in a cappuccino, mocha and straight shot. I am not an expert, and I'm used to a darker roast so take my comments as merely a description and not whether the coffee is good or bad. Too mild for my taste buds. The roast/aroma does not come through the milk.
1/31/2017

Eugenia
Coffee smells of blueberries! I thought it was an accidental shot at first, but time after time I would get the smell of fresh blueberries in the cup. I was only going to give it 4 stars at first because it seemed like no matter what I did it was on the bitter side. However, I did end up with a sweeter shot once and that was absolutely 5 star worthy.
1/31/2017

Alexander
It works best as a single espresso shot and drunk right then and there. Made into an Americano whether single or double and drunk right then and there it's okay. Drunk later even in a good thermos it goes stale. Would love more flavor.
1/23/2017

Jodi
Good coffee - have enjoyed it so far.
1/22/2017

Jessica
We loved this blend so much. I loved the flavor they really came out I could taste everything listed on the package. He also loved the flavor notes. It was a really smooth espresso for me. We used it in lattes with coconut milk.
1/16/2017

John
Great stuff!
1/11/2017

AdaMayChelle
Lucent is a very smooth rich bodied coffee, lower acidity than I prefer, but delicious non the less.
1/4/2017

Aly
Solid espresso. Great straight or as a latte. Nice layered sweet and nutty flavors.
1/4/2017

Denise
I generally prefer a darker roast. However, this was nice when I made it in my Bialetti Moka Express.
1/3/2017

Tiffany
As advertised, this makes great espresso and blends perfectly with milk. :) Also tried it as regular coffee (pour over) and it was a bit too strong/bitter for my palate. Will stick with lattes for this one.
1/1/2017

V Kipp
I love the richness of this coffee. Delicious! I really enjoy Ethiopian blends from what I've tried.
12/14/2016

Amhed
I liked this one. More caramel-like than nutty. Brewed on an intalian percolator, pretty good for the morning coffee to start the day.
11/12/2016

Eric
Great taste, smooth, goes well with latte
11/9/2016

Audrey
Smooth cup! Great taste.
11/3/2016

Kevin
Very smooth, nice balanced flavors. makes a great latte
10/13/2016

Sarah
One of our favorites so far. Full bodied with just enough complexity. Great as an espresso or cappuccino.
9/30/2016

Daley
Great dark nutty Americano. Smooth Latte. Dig this one.
9/29/2016

Napon
Enjoyed the subtle hint of berries. Too bad my grinder couldn't grind these fine enough. Used for drip instead of espresso.
9/28/2016

David
Big dark chocolate flavor. Rich texture. Could be sweeter. Not picking up much in the way of citrus.
9/18/2016

Peter
A nice nutty and sweet tasting blend not too bright. It was mild yet bold in flavor and subtle notes of hazelnut, almond and honey.
8/18/2016

Carl
Excellent smooth nutty flavor. Versatile, brewed a great shot of espresso but made an even better cup of french press. Flavors not necessarily bright or sharp enough for a typical pour-over, but an excellent go-to for a morning cup
7/27/2016

Kemberly
I wanted to put five because I'm easy to please but my husband said to give it four stars. I like it. Rich flavor.
7/24/2016

Jeremy
Not a bad medium roast
7/11/2016

Michael
Perfect for any espresso based drink
7/4/2016

Stephen R
One of my favorites
6/7/2016

Ravi
Well roasted to my taste profile (not to second crack and not oily)
6/6/2016

Duane
A bit nutty, but a bitter aftertaste. A little too lightly roasted for me I think, plus it stayed cloudy even after sitting awhile. Not my favorite, but not bad.
6/5/2016

Kim
Too light for my taste.
6/3/2016

Carol
Tastes good and blends well with milk for a nice cappuccino
5/24/2016

Jennifer
It is an excellent blend and I am in love with it! I want more.
5/22/2016

Robert
One of the best roasts I've had so far from Misto. Exactly what I was looking for with the exception of having a little sweetness on the end. Pours a very good shot. Robust, a bit of smokiness. Excellent.
3/9/2016

Cindy
Makes terrific espresso -- very smooth and a bit fruity!
2/4/2016

brent
well rounded--everything is ok, nothing jumps out as great...
2/1/2016

Harveen
Great blend!! Enjoyed the caramel tone of this coffee.
1/28/2016

Gerard
The coffee is very fresh and smooth, but it has a winey smell that some might not like Probably from its African side..
1/22/2016

Lynn and Gary
Wonderful blend, an excellent cup of espresso. It is a dash milder than we would like but thats better than a dash burnt. I hate burnt espresso. We will continue to but this, I like it's complicated flavor, hints that make you go "I could drink this all day".. Love
1/1/2016

Susanne
So yummy!!!!
12/15/2015

Courtney
LOVE. Have found myself craving a cup throughout the day. Will definitely buy again.
11/13/2015

Alfred
Was not my favorite flavor
11/8/2015

Brian
Delicious.
11/1/2015

Nick
I really, really liked this selection. The flavor was delicious and it was strong in just the way I like it. If I had to critique, I'd say I did find myself wishing the flavor was stronger (less watery), but I found that grinding the beans finer helped with this. We're off to a helluva start Connor and Mistobox :) I'm really like the coffee and the way you run the service. Excited for the next shipment!
10/27/2015

Alec
This is a well balanced espresso, with a nice almond/cherry flavor. It's a bit too dark a roast for me to enjoy straight, but it would probably be quite good in a cappuccino or macchiato.
9/21/2015

John
Definitely a sweet coffee, with good texture as well. I'm pulling on the shorter side, and it's still pretty full bodied.
9/11/2015

Jared
The coffee was good, however, I don't feel I was able to brew it properly as it's an espresso blend. I tried brewing it multiple ways, and it was only good. Never great.
8/30/2015

Laura
Lucent will probably forever be my favorite.
7/7/2015

Natalie
Delicious and intricate, but a little on the lighter side — which, mind you, is what I wanted, to explore the lighter side of coffee.
6/30/2015

Valentine
Tastes good after it's settled for 24hrs in a thermos. Straight from the drip, it has hints of harshness like you'd find on an espresso - a bit meh. Although bright, its best detail is the smell post-grind, Not worth the $22 the bag goes for month-to-month. Maybe it is different in an aeropress...?
