- Fresh Roasted Coffee, Guatemala Huehuetenango | 2 lb (32 oz) | Single Origin | Medium Roast | Kosher | Whole Bean

I'm a bit of a coffee snob. I don't like burnt coffee nor do I like blonde coffee. I don't like acidic coffee either. I want a rich flavor that is pleasing from the first to the last sip. I keep coming back to this perfectly roasted (gentle side of full city) bag of beans. Sure, there are other types, regions, styles, roast methods, bean shapes, etc. But this is a highly consistent product, bag after bag. These beans work exceptionally well in a regular drip coffee or as an espresso. Woody but warm - the flavor is repeatedly enjoyable and smooth.

My hands down favorite. Chocolate and toffee with no burnt flavor and low acid. It requires no creamer to be perfect. I only wish I could still get it since it has been out of stock for so long

Great coffee for the price. Taste is good, not exceptional, but again great value

Great freshness, great packaging, great flavor. Will buy again!

I have been buying an “organic” coffee bean from a big warehouse franchise for 10 years. I have been looking for a small company that sells mold free coffee in my price range. My expectations have been realized and then some. This coffee is smooth, refreshing and such a wonderful flavor. I personally have a problem with my previous beans being too acidic and tasting burnt. This smells of chocolate and is so delicious I now have 2 cups in the morning instead of just the one. The beans grind well, release easily and brew fantastic..the price point is more than reasonable. I hesitated to review this as I worry in time this will be a hard brand to find as it sells out quickly but I would want to know, especially buying 5lb bags. It is worth every penny and more. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

This is the best coffee. Smooth, flavorfu, not bitter.

I REALLY wish Amazon would separate these into their actual individual products, as it's unreasonable to review different coffees with entirely different profiles and roasts on the same review, but here we go. ============================== Edit - 6/25 - this portion of the review is for the Costa Rican Tarrazu, and I'd rate it... maybe 4 stars. I'm back and forth on it, but overall it's good, don't let the oiliness and roast smell out of the bag fool you. Recently a colleague from South America shipped me some local brand Tarrazu coffee from Costa Rica and I enjoyed it, it's a pretty nutty and floral experience. I figured I'd try Fresh Roasted's attempt. It didn't wow me at first and has a slight acrid scent right out of the bag, and is darker than I expected, but upon brewing it actually turned out better than anticipated. Flavor-wise, it's bright and a bit nutty. There's none of the floral while it's brewing, but it off gasses well and there's a hint of floral in the mug. Nutty and light is how I'd describe it. It's definitely a non-complex flavor profile, and singly nutty overall, but that's not a terrible thing. It's nice, and pleasant, even if it doesn't have the "wow" factor I get from the Brazil or Ethiopian roasts. I will say this one is very good with pour over. Still single note but the flavor profile really comes out well. I've done French Press and immersion brew with my Clever dripper on this and this one is actually pretty great with a finer grind via pour over. It's entirely possible some of the subtlety of the bean is lost with a french press brew. Half the enjoyment of coffee is finding out though. :) ============================== Edit, 5/18/2023 - bought the Organic Mexican coffee again to be sure the last bag wasn’t a fluke. It wasn’t. It’s just okay. I’d describe it as inoffensive. Better than most coffee of the grocery shelf but not by much. This is better than the likes of Dunkin’ Donuts or 8 o’clock, but a store brand like Gevalia is better. The Organic Mexican is at best a 3 out of 5. It's inoffensive, mildly better than store bought coffee, but there's better out there in this brand for the same price or less. Get the Brazil Minas Gerais, Tarrazu or one of the Ethiopian roasts instead. You won’t regret it. ============================== This original review is for the Organic Mexican, medium roast. Decent enough coffee for the price, but I'm not particularly impressed. I've really enjoyed the medium and light roast Ethiopian Yrgacheffe and Sidamo Guji, but this one's not as good in my opinion. Bag indicates flavor notes of cashew, pear, and brown sugar. You can taste the nutty hints, but the rest of the flavors are muted on the brew. There's pretty much no fruity notes at all, and I'd call this roast slightly on the bitter side, not getting the brown sugar. The ethiopian roasts were also light on the fruity notes, they were a bit muted compared to other roasters I've tasted, but at least it was there, and they're rather tasty when fresh. This one is just okay. It's certainly drinkable, and still better than most store bought coffee, but there's better out there for the price, and much better if you're willing to spend a bit more.

The coffee from this company is hands down the best coffee I have found. To be able to get it at a good price on Amazon was a bonus.
