Blue Bottle Whole Bean Organic Coffee, Bright, Light Roast, 12 Ounce Bag (Pack of 1)USDA Organic

If you like bright flavors with a hint of citrus this is for you. They are not oily so they're good to use in a super automatic espresso machine. I'm not overly concerned about recent roast dates or robust crema... It simply tastes good to me and isn't terribly expensive.

The flavor is smooth and well-balanced, with subtle nutty notes and no bitterness. You honestly wouldn’t guess it’s decaf. The beans arrive fresh, grind easily, and brew beautifully well.I also appreciate that they use a chemical-free decaffeination process and maintain organic quality. While the price is a bit higher, the taste and quality make it worth it. If you’re looking for a premium decaf that doesn’t compromise on flavor, this is an excellent choice.

My husband and I were looking for a cost efficient option than purchasing from local coffee shops, and we chose this product based on the reviews and marketing. Everything was accurate. This is great espresso that tastes like it comes from your local coffee shop and ships straight to your home. It was an all around win for us

No comparison to intelligentsia: this one is good, the latter is terrible. But Illy is better. Illy is 100% arabica, this one I don’t know, not written anywhere.P.s. Gemini explained the difference to Illy well

Good taste without caffeine. Wanted beans and found them here.

Blue Bottle beans are so much better than a few other brands we've tried.

I was hoping for these coffee beans to live up to the advertisement but unfortunately was disappointed. The overly sour taste after making a cappuccino with these beans was almost unbearable to my taste buds. The cappuccino, despite my years of coffee making, was difficult to force down. Again, the dominant taste is a very acrid sour. But to be fair, this has been the case with almost every brand of coffee in the last two years or so. From my taste experience and knowledge of coffee (my grandfather owned a coffee plantation and my uncle, his son, was a coffee plantation inspector), it seems that coffee plantations have been harvesting when they are overly green, that is, unripe, as opposed to when they are at least beginning to turn red, or preferably, are fully red, the ripe stage.

This Blue Bottle dark roast espresso is outstanding! The beans are fresh and aromatic right out of the bag. Once ground and brewed, they deliver a deep, rich flavor with smooth chocolatey notes and zero bitterness. It makes an excellent shot of espresso and also holds up beautifully in lattes or cappuccinos.I also appreciate that it's organic and ethically sourced — it makes the coffee experience feel even better. If you love strong, smooth espresso, this is absolutely worth the price.
