Death Wish Coffee, Valhalla Java Whole Bean Coffee, Fair Trade and USDA Certified Organic - 5 Lb Bag

If you need a serious caffeine kick to get your day moving but absolutely hate the harsh, burnt taste of standard high-powered dark roasts, this blend is a total game changer. Grinding these beans fresh releases a wonderful, earthy aroma with heavy notes of rich chocolate and roasted nuts. The smart mix of Arabica and Robusta beans ensures you get a deeply robust, full-bodied cup of coffee that stays buttery smooth from the first sip to the last drop, requiring zero sugar or heavy creamer to mask any unpleasant acidity. It delivers a clean, incredibly sharp wave of focus that helps you power through a busy morning shift without triggering those annoying, jittery heart palpitations. Because the flavor profile is so naturally mellow and well-balanced, it holds up perfectly whether you brew it in a standard drip machine, a French press, or over ice. Getting the two-pack of twelve-ounce bags is an excellent way to keep your pantry stocked with a premium, organic roast that actually lives up to its legendary reputation.

Muy bueno

I had no business making this coffee when it arrived at 7pm, but did I? Yes. And did i post a review the same day i received it? Yes. Yes, i did because it's THAT good. This coffee is almost other worldly. I thought the reviews on here were exaggerating but omg they are not. Usually, i go for the Peets Coffee Major Dickason's Blend (been purchasing for years) but i figured why not try something new. Nothing ever topped Peets coffee until this. The amount of caffeine is great but that also means you should not have multiple cups of this due to the high caffeine content. This has little to nonexistent acidity for me which is a huge bonus. Its smooth and dark without being bitter. It definitely is on the pricier side but i think it's worth it. To each their own but i would at least recommend that you give it a go, if you have not tried this before, please give it at least a shot and see how you like it. I feel like the freshness was good but if that's something you're super concerned about then you can always order this directly from their website. To me, this is the best cup of hot coffee i have ever had.

I use this for my espresso in the morning. As someone who was going to Dutch Bros every morning i have fell in love with making my coffee at home because it tastes SO MUCH better. The blend is amazing, its richer and strong in flavor.

I love a good dark roast coffee, and like many people I need the occasional caffeinated slap in the face, so after reading the mostly positive reviews of this coffee I figured I'd give it a shot. Is it good? Yes, especially if you like dark coffee. Dark but not bitter, slightly sweet but in a "90% cacao" kind of way, and not excessively fruity. It has a strong backbone, but I didn't find its flavor profile exceedingly complex. That can be good or bad, depending on what you enjoy. Did it take me on a flavor journey, transporting me through different realms of gustatory experiences as it traveled over my tongue exciting a wide range of taste buds? No, it didn't do any of that. It was, however, good coffee; not one-dimensional, but not complicated either. In terms of caffeine content, I brewed my first cup with a mix of excitement and trepidation. Would the coffee machine be possessed by the spirit of Odin and pour forth a stream of Nordic nectar? Would my freshly shaven face suddenly sprout a deep-red beard that begged me to braid it? Would I feel empowered to take on my daily tasks with the fury of Thor's hammer? No, none of that happened either. It did wake me up a bit, but I didn't ride around my kitchen on a caffeinated tidal wave. Bottom line: This is a good dark coffee with flavor that is robust but not multi-faceted and a caffeine content that is at least what you would expect from a strong cup of coffee. My only quibble is that it is fairly high priced. Whether it is worth its price is up to you; for me, in this price range I like something with a little more complexity. I like this Valhalla and will probably return to it, but for now I will stick with my personal favorite dark coffee for my regular morning brew.
