Green Coffee Traders 1LB. 100% Jamaica Jamaican Blue Mountain Roasted Coffee - City Roast, 1lb Bag

Update end of NOV-24 After my first review (below) I was excited to buy it again...but disappointed that it is the same lot as before with same expiration and it has lost a lot of its zip and deeper flavor. Had to use more coffee for a decent cup and it no longer makes great espresso. It is going stale!!! Beware!!!! You can still get away with cold brew ...but that was it. If they roast another lot of this...I am in. but this lot has date left on the expiration date shown...just little flavor left in the bag...and is oxidizing by the day...CAVIAT EMPTOR!(ORIGINAL REVIEW FROM 1ST PURCHASE EARLIER IN YEAR FOLLOWS BELOW):I loved this stuff! First of all finding a dark roast JBM coffee is a challenge, but fining one that has this flavor profile may be impossible. The beans could be a little fresher (they are not stale). They taste delicious and have the distinctive taste of my favorite Arabica coffee variety which is called Typica. It is the same bean used in Kona and many other superlative volcanic soil coffees. I knew it was the real deal when I smelled it after grinding. This can take a fine grind and not turn to dust. It works very well as a single origin espresso due to its dark slow roast and its mild and full bodied Typica genetics. This may seem pricey but Jamaican Blue Mountain is expensive for the same reason Kona is...it is not a large volume plant....but the best one IMO...it originates in SE Ethiopia and Yemen from volcanic mountain soils. Love this coffee!!

I bought this as a gift for my husband. (I am not a coffee drinker.) He LOVED this coffee. I won't buy it often because of the price, but once or twice a year will be a treat for him. Highly recommend.

so I purchased this off of a review of a coworker who swears by it and only drinks this so I bought it for the actual office. I am not a coffee drinker. The taste is very strong to me and that could be because I am not a coffee drinker But it yet still it has smoothness a function well with the actual coffee machine we had and the quality was that of the one he said he had in Jamaica.

This is better than the other one I tried.

This is a wonderful coffee I reserve for special occasions and it never disappoints. For coffee from this island, it is well priced and, to me, a great enjoyment in life

Not sure who is at fault. This companies coffee purchased from Amazon several times was good. This time, it's undeniable. Tastes like plastic. Heat cracks in the beans are white??Amazon's every changing screw the customers policy, appears to be changing to mY the buyer beware. This, like many Amazon purchases are non returnable!I'm finding more and more products I get from Amazon are available in several stores for less money. I liked one stop shopping, but Amazon's don't care policy and higher prices is pretty much pushing me into saving money and shopping elsewhere.

This was just OK. Not my fave and honestly, I've had better. Didn't WOW me like I thought it would esp when it's said to be the best coffee in the world, really? Couldn't tell. Again, not bad, just not WOWed.

Very good coffee. Not bitter at all.
