Costa Rican Coffee, Tarrazu Reserve, Dark Roast, Whole Bean, Fair Trade, Fresh Roasted, 16-ounce

This coffee is the real deal folks, ignore the poor reviews as those people don't know what to expect from a good coffee bean and roasting company. This coffee, the Costa Rican Reserve Tarrazu, is worth every penny and more. It is smooth and rich in real coffee flavor, delicious to the last drop. It comes labeled properly, which includes roast date and expiration date. The company sources the beans from the higher, volcanic mountains in Costa Rica. ALL high altitude mountain coffee beans are going to cost more than Folgers, they are harder to care for and harvest! The price for this brand is better than any other brand I've seen and bought, for the quality. You DON'T want to drink fresh roast coffee, the beans are not ready yet, as most coffee shops lead you to believe. My bag has a roast date of April, which happens to match when I got it...in April. I put it in the freezer for long-term storage and opened it 2weeks ago (late August) and the coffee has been perfect! So if you really know coffee and want a great tasting, perfectly roasted bean and willing to pay more than Folgers price then this coffee is for you!

It has a smooth body with bright citrus notes, a hint of sweetness, and a clean, crisp finish. The aroma is rich and inviting, making it perfect for pour-over, drip, or French press brewing. If you enjoy high-quality, single-origin coffee with a bright yet smooth profile, this one is a must-try!

Freshly roasted, smooth, strong and aromatic. Recommended!

The BEST Coffee for my drip maker!!!

Pleasantly surprised by the excellent flavor and freshness of this coffee (Costa Rica, Tarrazu Reserve). The coffee was delivered within a week of the indicated roasting date, which is not bad considering it is being delivered through a large, complicated supply chain. The roasting was done well, beans were fresh, and packaging was solid. I have only enjoyed it through an espresso style preparation, and will likely not try it through a drip method. Taste is always personal, so I will simply say that if you enjoy dark, rich coffees, this coffee is worth trying. No bitterness (for my taste) or any hit of over-roasting. I think the seller's description of the flavor is accurate. Enjoy!

Volcanica makes some good coffee.

I love this coffee - being shade grown and fair trade is important to me, and of course freshness and flavor as well. This one is also a great price for all these standards (about the same price as what I'd have to pay for a 12 oz bag of locally roasted beans). They also make a decaf. dark roast which has gotten hard to find, so I can mix to get a half-caff dark blend.

I enjoyed this brand while in Costa Rica and it still deliveries a great flavor.
