House Blend Coffee Beans, Medium Roast, 2kg (2 Packs of 1kg), Rainforest Alliance Certified

For the price point these are pretty good beans! Personally I have mine as a latte with vanilla syrup so the beans don’t need to be full of flavour and the coffee tastes nice. Not sure if it would be different if having with straight hot water. Happy with the product though and would buy again.

I love my coffee and i'll always grind fresh at most doing a batch to last a day or so amd keeping it sealed. It's not cheap buying coffee beans soni decided to give these a try as the price was so tempting. This is a 1kg bag of 100% Arabica beans. The bag is foil lined with the usual pressure valve at the top to avoid the bag popping. The beans are rainforrest alliance certified so both peoples rights and the forrest are treated with respect. They do also state on the bag that the beans are sourced from several countries, but are roasted and packed in Belgium. If they are good quality beans you will smell the coffee in the bag before opening, not so in this case. The beans are sourced from multiple countries rather than single source which is a bit disapointing. Single source beans always have a better flavour profile and also give a reliable expectation. E.g. South america will be rich and fruity, asia and africa more acidic. These make a very acidic brew soni would presume the latter. I like to brew an espresso for new beans to get a full impression of the flavour and oil content. This gives a very thin almost no creme layer, so not much oil to the beans (milder, drier flavour), it brews a black rather than brown (medium to dark roasted beans). Taste wise this is very acidic. Piping hot the flavour is quite neutral and not really much of anything, let it cool a bit and it's smooth, very smooth, but also the high acidity comes through. There's not really any dominant flavour notes or aromas that i pick up, maybe a very mild chocolate or nut. Unfortunately the acidity overwhelms the palette thr cooler it gets. This has been roasted to a pleasant level (3/5), there's no taste of burnt coffee, but i think a heavier roasting would help reduce the acid and bring out more of the flavour. Because this is much more acidic than i would normally drink i think i'll have this as a morning coffee (to help get things moving). I'd also recommend brewing in a cafetiere rather than espresso. The ussual 1 tablespoon + 1 spoon per cup. Overall a bargain option for coffee beans and will definitely wake you up. But if you don't like acidic coffee and prefer a rich flavour profile steer clear. Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it useful

I purchased this coffee for the first time based simply on the fact I enjoy arabica medium roast coffee and saw this was an Amazon Choice product. The price was reasonable so decided to try it. I must say I was definitely not disappointed! I ground the beans to a fine grind to use in my espresso machine. The beans ground easily and I savoured my first and subsequent cups. The crema was a beautiful golden brown colour with a lovely aroma. Upon tasting my first latte, I was delighted. The coffee was smooth with a slight acidity and I could taste notes of hazelnut and chocolate and the coffee was very fresh. The 1kg size of the bag will last my family for quite a while and I think the price was quite reasonable and a great value for the money. I don’t think I have been so pleased with a purchase for a long time. I would definitely recommend this coffee for those who like a smooth, medium roast coffee. I will be buying this coffee again over and over.

Really nice coffee beans and not too strong. Arrived very quickly and well packed

Smooth, mild flavour and easy to drink. Not very rich or complex, but works well for daily use. Good value for the price.

This is not high quality coffee. That said, anyone expecting high quality at this price point is delusional. But having given it a go I’ve been pleasantly surprised. The coffee keeps and grinds well, even for espresso. The beans give a good crema consistently. The flavour is a little dull and earthy and doesn’t have any real character other than murky but it’s fine for everyday drinking. Missing some of the finer characteristics you might get from say Costa or Illy, this coffee is still a good few notches above the likes of percol or Lyons that you can now pick up in bargain stores. It’s worth considering that this is likely to be the polar opposite of fair trade coffee so if ethics come into your consideration when buying coffee, probably best to steer clear of this. I can’t even find a country of origin listed so it’s likely a blend of all things unworthy of a brand label. That said, if you eat fast food, you can’t pull the ethics card out on your coffee habits. In terms of value, this is its USP. As you can see in the pics, I’m about a third of the way through the 2kg, grinding in small batches to feed a four to six double-shots a day habit. I’m delighted to have fresh ground coffee on hand without the concern of running out within the week. Planning to supplement with the occasional tin of Illy but while that’s usually close to £5 for 250g there’s no contest in my mind and I can’t claim to have taste buds so sophisticated that they won’t drink this. Bottom line, give it a go and if you don’t mind a ‘standard’ fresh ground coffee, you’ve found a winner! Hey, it beats instant!

Very nice coffee at a good price. Tried this based on the reviews, I really liked it but its not up there with my favorites. Taste was very good and the beans smelt lovely and fresh, my favorite is the Taylors of Harrogate Italian at the moment. Brew was nice though and I did enjoy these, would recommend giving them a try as everyone likes a different flavour.

Been buying this for over a year now and even though it gone up a price its still good value and works really well in my bean to cup machine , taste good both in espresso and milk coffees.

Wir hatten vorher immer teuren Marken Kaffee. Da ich bei diesem aber mittlerweile über 20 € pro Kilo zahle, wollten wir diesen Kaffee mal testen. Wir nutzen ihn nun als täglichen Kaffee. Er schmeckt ganz gut und ist eben deutlich günstiger. Insgesamt würde ich den Kaffee empfehlen, auch wenn ich für besondere Anlässe noch einen anderen Kaffee zu Hause haben würde.

Ottimo caffè brasiliano 100% ARABICA, è la seconda volta che lo acquisito. È venduto a un prezzo strepitoso, direi imbattibile! Ottimo profumo, colore e sapore, con note di nocciola. Consigliato!

For the price it's a top choice. Good crema and even better aroma. Comes with a solid kick. If you are looking for a reliable daily cup this is the way to go! It might not be as complex as the 50eur per kg ones but for the average consumer it's perfect. Delivery was great too, 24h really quick.

Absolut trinkbar.

Utilisé avec une machine automatique Delonghi avec broyeur intégré, principalement en expresso et café long. Après 3 semaines d’utilisation, le rendu est constant. Le café est plutôt fort mais reste équilibré, sans amertume excessive. L’odeur à l’ouverture est agréable, et le goût tient bien en tasse, que ce soit en expresso ou en café plus long. ✔ Bon équilibre entre puissance et douceur ✔ Goût stable dans le temps ✔ Très bon rapport qualité/prix ✔ Livraison rapide et toujours disponible ❌ Point à améliorer : le paquet ne se referme pas après ouverture, ce qui peut impacter la fraîcheur sur la durée si on ne transvase pas. Au final, c’est un café équivalent à ce qu’on trouve habituellement dans cette gamme, fiable et sans mauvaise surprise. Idéal pour un usage quotidien sans se ruiner.
