Panama Boquete

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

Look, I’ll be real — I don’t like the taste of coffee. Never have. Probably never will. But I love everything else about it. The smell? Incredible. The ritual? Calming. The caffeine? Legal rocket fuel.Enter: Fresh Roasted Costa Rican Tarrazu. I bought it because I wanted to feel like a coffee person without grimacing every morning. And somehow… I actually enjoy this one. Or at least, I enjoy pretending I enjoy it while inhaling that rich, roasty goodness and waiting for the sweet caffeine to kick me into gear.Is this what being an adult is? Forcing down bitterness with a smile because the side effects are awesome? Because if so — this bag nails it.Even if my taste buds say "meh," my brain says "LET’S GO."

This is excellent coffee! Very rich taste; smooth and creamy; priced well below what other high quality coffees cost.

Excellent coffee beans, as usual from Fresh Roasted Coffee.One star off because part of the appeal of this brand is the fact that they do roast your coffee upon order and ship it out quickly, so that you can get coffee roasted in Pennsylvania delivered to the West Coast in about a week: still very fresh. This 2-lb bag of beans was a Prime Day special, sold at a reduced price, but it apparently sat in an Amazon warehouse for six months before shipping.Still a good deal, but, as the name suggests, it's better when freshly roasted.

I'm very pleased with this coffee. I keep several varieties of whole bean on hand so I can switch up my coffee when I feel like a change of pace. I have been using other brands of Colombian Supremo for a long time and it's hard to beat a good cup of Supremo. I wasn't completely satisfied with the others I had tried, they weren't bad but I knew there was better coffee to be had so when I worked my way through a bag of whole beans I'd order something else -- making my decision based on reviews and the percentage of 4 and 5 star ratings.I stumbled across this coffee and thought "why not?" It gets good reviews except for a few sour apples that are always present on any product. So I went ahead and ordered it, feeling that at this price there was little to lose and with the great reviews there might be a lot to gain.I'm glad I ordered this coffee because finally I'm satisfied with my stock of Colombian Supremo. I had bought several bags of Colombian Supremo and then moved on without reordering any of them. I'll be ordering this one again.It's always possible that I got a particularly good bag, that someone else didn't get a good bag, or that any single bag of beans isn't representative of a brand. One needs to bear such things in mind when ordering coffee beans online. It's not like you can taste the coffee before buying it. Still, none of the others I've tried in the last couple years was as good to my taste as this one so I'll try this one again.Another thing to keep in mind is that flavor is not an absolute. There are individual variances in the taste experience so what appeals to me may not appeal to others and vice-verse. I find this brand from the bag I got to be very full bodied and smooth with no bite and no bitterness. It's what I'm looking for in a Colombian Supremo and that is a very happy discovery. Especially being as it's significantly cheaper than other coffees that don't taste as well to me.Rather than write another review, if my experience with this brand changes for the worse I'll come back here and amend this one. If you don't see a dated update below then what I have to say about this coffee still stands.Update 17 March 2015: I noticed my stock of this coffee was running a little low, it's been six months since I bought this bag so I thought maybe some people would like to know how it stores and tastes after that amount of time. Bear in mind that I store all my coffees in air tight opaque containers, that's important if you're going to keep several varieties of coffee on hand and not use up any one variety quickly. I also store my coffees, pipe tobacco and cigars in a temperature and humidity controlled environment That probably isn't a big issue with air tight containers, I just have room for my coffees where I store my tobaccos. I know the "freshly roasted" snobs are going to turn their noses up so if you're one of them, go ahead and stop reading right now. I don't care what you have to say because taste is more important than theory to me. I know what tastes good to me, I won't benefit from anyone telling me that what I like I can't possibly like because blah, blah, blah.This coffee has stored extremely well. It has gotten even smoother and more mellow with storage but is still as bold as when I first opened the bag and dumped it in a container. This may be why some folks say a new bag doesn't taste like the one they got before, if the coffee has had time to mature between when the bag was first opened and when the new, freshly roasted bag was opened then there's going to be a difference in taste. I have enough of the first bag left that the bag I'm having delivered today will sit in it's air tight container for a while; but just to experiment I'll brew a pot with beans from the new bag when it comes to see if there's a difference.I'll try to come back and update this review when I've had time to evaluate the new bag of whole beans. So far I'm very pleased with this coffee and it's the only Columbian Supremo that I've ordered more than once from Amazon. If the new bag is as good as the first one I'm probably done searching for Supremo. If not, I'll let everyone know.

Great coffee from one of my favorite parts of the world. Everyone loves it - they know how to process coffee in Guatemala, so smooth and not burnt or bitter.
