Smoky, leathery.
I am a big fan of Intelligentsia and most all their coffees. This one however had a burnt smoky and leathery taste. It was just not good in my opinion.

I was excited about this based on online recommend
Nice mouth feel but not my cup of “tea”. Does not do well with milk drinks as mentioned in the deception, in my opinion

The perfect Cortado
I ordered the Black Cat, which was a wonderful balance of fully blended notes that paired super well with steamed milk.

Tasty every time.
Consistent! Always just a few days after the roast date and makes beautiful espresso every time.

Analog Expresso Order
The best coffee beans on the market! I usually picked up bags where available in grocery stores/cafe's so getting fresh coffee beans for at-home coffees has been great! Consistently delicious!

Perfect blend
I didn’t realize I liked strong espresso until I tried this blend!

just not for me. gross
very light for a medium roast, the beans were almost still green in hue. for me the taste was really strong of molasses/dark syrup which i really really do not like. i had to give them away because they were undrinkable even in a sweetened and flavored espresso drink. i can get tastier fresher beans locally for a better price.

Great Moka Espresso
I purchased this particular coffee for one reason – to try in my new Moka espresso pot. It makes an absolutely delicious cup by this method. That’s about all I can vouch for… It’s mellow but really full bodied. It smells fabulous, and retains a high-quality, fresh flavor, even several days after grinding. Recommend!

Amazing and fresh beans. I use them in my lucca a53 at home. Definitely something I'm going to keep on a regular rotation. Great traditional espresso beans

This is my go to
I have tried dozens of coffees, from Intelligentsia and other roasters...this is the one I would always come back to. It's been a couple years now that this is the only bean I buy.

I'd return it if I could
If I could return this I would. It’s acidic and almost fruity. If that’s your thing you might like it. But I think it’s terrible. 🤷🏻♀️

Great coffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a nice surprise! The aroma is what drew me to this product at first but the flavor profile is what really sealed the deal. I am beyond obsessed!

Wake up to this bag of excitement
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a great find. When grinding the beans the smell of the coffee was so inviting. The taste was not overwhelming and had all the right notes. Would definitely recommend.

Overall okay coffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coffee is more on the lighter roast side than usual medium roast. Has notes of nuts and citrusy. Since it’s lighter roast, it’s quite acidic for anyone who couldn’t tolerate it. Bag comes in 12oz package and zip lock mechanism. Packaging is plastic which helps sealing the coffee freshness.

Delightful cup of coffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was a bold, smooth flavor that made for a delightful morning coffee with a touch of half and half. I could see it working well in recipes that call for added coffee.

Super good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like my coffee strong and this hit the spot. Easy open package. Smelled good. Brewed easy. Had to be ground since it was a whole bean coffee. Great instead of my usual.

Yum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has full flavor and smells great. It wakes you up in the morning and accomplishes everything I need it to! I made a whole pot for my husband and I and it was gone in a day!

Ok
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging and aroma were fantastic. This just wasn't for me. It was very strong for my liking, I used it in an ice espresso drink as well as a hot one but didn't like either. If you like a strong espresso though, this is definitely for you
