I think i like a darker roast flavor, so i changed my preference from medium to dark
3/19/2025
A touch too bitter for my taste, but very good!
3/18/2025
Although tasty, the cocoa is to pronounced for my taste.
3/5/2025
Really good decaf
3/1/2025
It was very good for a dark roast. I think I'd prefer a medium/lighter roast, but I know that's hard to come by in decaf.

Incredible coffee. Good bitterness, nice rich flavor.

I loved that it was freshly ground and roasted decaf which allowed me to enjoy the coffee without getting jitters, anxiety and stomach pain. I’d love to try other different decaf coffees with different notes/flavors but i I did love this one.

Much better in short pulls, over long
7/31/2024
I brewed as a pour over and added sweetened condensed coconut milk and it was amazing.
7/23/2024
Not bad, but beans are a bit burnt and oily
7/20/2024
Too dark
6/10/2024
Too fruity for my liking
5/11/2024
Like it, don't love it. A bit fruitier than I expected for a Central/So. American blend. Beans smell amazing, but that doesn't quite translate into the brew. Balance, warm, cocoa hints but not much depth (maybe it's the decaf). Still a solid choice.
2/12/2024
Please change brew queue. I don't drink decaf. Please change to light roast, single bean, and no decaf and no grind. Thank you for your assistance!

I am not yet certain what makes a 5 star blend, but I liked this coffee.
I liked that it was not heavily bitter or acidic, and it had a deep and rich flavor.
I drink french press, with cream and a little sugar.

Very good flavor for decaf albeit more mild than the full caffeinated version. I brewed as espresso and Aeropress and would recommend for those brewing methods.
1/12/2024
This is darker than I would have chosen on my own, but I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to continuing the exploration.

Even Steve loved this one!
Great cup of coffee

A little too harsh for my taste.
8/15/2023
Makes a great espresso.
8/11/2023
For my taste, darker decaf roasts like this one often end up dominated by the roast and lose much of the complexity. I certainly appreciate the challenge with decaf processing, but I’m trying Mistobox to search for better light/medium roast decaf. I have enjoyed several from Onyx and my local, Fazenda. Thanks!
7/3/2023
I love its mellow smooth flavor. It’s really nice. I look forward to it everyday now.
5/24/2023
Good, a bit darker than I was expecting but has a nice overall flavor to it.
4/12/2023
Smooth and rich. Love it! I make this in a moka pot and drink it with hot oat milk. I tasted dark chocolate and dried cherries.
4/8/2023
Very good! Would get this again.
3/18/2023
A simple yet tasty espresso blend
2/17/2023
Tastes like dirty water. I don't even have an espresso machine, why was this sent to me? Can I get a refund?
2/11/2023
Not a fan of espresso
2/10/2023
Great flavor and actually a good mix on a day I want more cups but not more caffeine!
12/18/2022
It wad ok..not bold enough for me.
12/10/2022
That was very tasty. May have been better if made French press rather than drip
11/18/2022
This is really good. Takes awhile to get the mix right but not I really like it. So the mix is 22g beans, 30g coffee at 27 to 30 seconds. Still the best one so far
10/10/2022
Excellent.
9/20/2022
I love it and want more for sure
8/19/2022
subtle milk chocolate flavors could be more intense
8/8/2022
I was pleasantly surprised. I made the assumption that the coffee would have an artificial chocolate flavor and as a result, undrinkable. I was completely wrong, the flavor was mild and extremely pleasant. Can’t wait to sample the next selection.
7/31/2022
Excellent coffee. For me, it’s more full body than medium. Notes of chocolate and pecan do come through. Enjoyable.
7/16/2022
This was quite good, though I had to up the coffee to water ratio to get it strong enough.
7/9/2022
I'm still playing with the ratios but it was a bit dark. Liking the sweeter notes at the end
5/31/2022
I liked this one a lot! The decaffness didn't seem like it took too much away from the flavor overall. Sorry I don't know what adjectives to use to describe what I liked about it!
5/2/2022
Very smooth with a light nutty taste. Not a bold tasting coffee and somewhat lightly sweet.
4/11/2022
This was my favorite so far. I'd be curious to know what their non-decaf is like. The aroma was just amazing! I made with a French press, and it was really delicious.
4/10/2022
A bit too dark
3/3/2022
Full bodied and so smooth! Does not need any sugar or cream. My son who poo-poos decaf coffee even enjoyed this coffee!
2/23/2022
I've only had 2 cups of it but so far it has been delicious. Definitely rich flavors and I don't feel jittery or overly caffeinated like I do on some other decafs. I cold brewed the whole bag. Very pleased with this blend!
2/18/2022
I don't have an espresso machine, so I'm not sure what this would taste like in that form, but as a pour-over, I found this to have an unpleasantly weird flavor and scent to it, with some burnt undertones (brewed at 205º). This was sent to me despite my unchecking Espresso as a preference, so I'm not super sure what the intention was on this one.
2/6/2022
too heavy for me. didnt taste fresh, barely any smell to the beans.
2/5/2022
It was outstanding so smooth and delicious!
2/5/2022
Great flavor! Loved it for our lattes, however not as noteworthy for our pourovers (Chemex).
2/2/2022
Beans rather overcooked; for espresso, have to use a really low brew ratio to minimize the "burnt" flavors. Reminiscent of an overcooked steak. Not a favourite.
2/1/2022
Not a fan of the flavor!
1/26/2022
Delicious. We made the coffee per the package instructions and are thoroughly enjoying it.
1/25/2022
Bitter after taste
1/14/2022
A good decaf
1/11/2022
It was lovely!
1/6/2022
I have a drip coffee machine so espresso ground doesn’t make much sense for me. Otherwise I think I would have really liked it
1/3/2022
Really wonderful aroma, and the flavor was “lighter” and more nuanced than expected given that it’s an espresso roast. I brewed it using a home espresso maker, and used a burr grinder to grind the beans. Really happy!
12/15/2021
Did not love this coffee. Don't taste the chocolate notes and its a bit dull in flavor
11/15/2021
Loved the smell and the taste was good—not bitter and smooth.
10/18/2021
It is really good and what a delight. I grind it on fine and have a Melitta drip. I am delighted.
I would also like to try a really dark coffee with a bit more of a bite..could I have a decaf with that next time?

Liked the sweetness and the mildness
10/8/2021
I really liked it. Unfortunately, my grinder got jammed with a dark, oily coffee I was using right before. I had to dismantle it, clean the burrs and am wasting a bit of this coffee dialing back in the grinder.
