Yuban Traditional Roast Medium Roast Ground Coffee, 31 oz Canister

Great taste

I bought this thefirst time only because it was a lot less expensive than the other coffee I was looking. I was not expecting much at all!Wow, honestly, I was shocked at the great flavor of this coffee. Yes, it is less expensive, but it is not cheap at all! I love and am a bit picky about the coffee I drink. I don't care for any kind of flavoring they now put in coffee these days. I like having a special coffee for Shabbats and other special events. I am on a very limited income. This is one of the best coffees I have had. I will keep on buying it! I do recommend it very much!

Tasted normal

The container:The container is plastic with a "click top" lid. It keeps the coffee fresh.The grind:The grind is for all types of coffee makersThe aroma:When you open the container, the aroma does not hit you like some coffee brandsThe flavor:The flavor is average, not great. You need to use more coffee than some other brands. I would liken this coffee to other major supermaket brands but for a little less money. In the 1970s Yuban was heavily advertized as 100% Columbian bean coffee. In recent years, Columbian beans have gotten more expensive so, some brands have gone with an Arabica and Robusta blend, which is what Yuban uses to make their "Traditional Roast." It is a good value for the money spent. It definitely will wake you up in the morning! However, if you are a big coffee lover like I am and someone who appreciates good value like me, you probably want to look for something with a little more flavor than Yuban. While the price is right, the flavor profile is just ok.

I hate Folgers and great value coffee. This stuff tastes better!

I’ve bought this coffee twice, and I will continue to repurchase when I run out. It’s an amazing value for the amount of coffee you get. The taste is on par with a small, expensive bag from the store. I was excited to try this since it had such great reviews, and I was not disappointed by the quality. The acidity is balanced, and the coffee is rich and full. It doesn’t last more than a month in my house, since we drink coffee daily, but I haven’t noticed any loss of freshness.

This is good coffee. I was given a can once because it was "close-dated", which is just silly. If you like coffee, you will drink it in a week or so after breaking the vacuum seal. Yes, I understand there are sophisticated consumers who will voice the opinion that price equals quality. Taste is subjective, quality is not. If you like coffee, you like the bitter, robust flavor. If you like coffee-flavored sugar and liquid fat, called "drinks" for which you spend an hour's pay to consume a meal's worth of calories, this is not for you.No, this is the good stuff. The kind of coffee your grandma served, the kind on which every local good greasy spoon built their foundation. It's the kind you drink at church, the stuff you pour in the working man's thermos.I buy it, over and over because it is consistent. It might well be a blend of robusto and aracibia, but, as claimed, it is 100% ground coffee. And, yes, I have served it to everyone. My mom likes it. My aunt likes it. I've brewed huge pots for family gatherings. The best compliment I ever got was, "I think she got Granny's coffee!" And everyone knows, Granny raised six kids on a shoestring budget, yet no one ever accused her of stinting on the coffee or the butter (oleo is a whole separate issue...)Best coffee:1/2 cup Yuban60 ounces fresh, cold water10 coffee cups, warmed in the oven while the coffee brews (use a cookie sheet)Pour fresh coffee into each cup. Serve with breakfast, dinner and supper. In this way, one can of coffee will last one week. Plan on using a whole second can for family events.

I bought this coffee when it was on sale for a very low price. I would have to say that the taste was not too bad but mediocre. I could see myself buying it again in a pinch, but would not be my first choice.
