Intelligentsia Black Cat Analog Medium Roast Espresso - 12oz

[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!

[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.

[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.

[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.

[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.

[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!

[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

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I usually love this brand. The coffee tasted pretty good. no sourness that i’ll get from other shorter coffee brands. The packaging is cute and pretty good standard coffee beans.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Talk about a coffee with a fantastic aroma, woke me right up smelling it brewing. Very bold and satisfying flavor as well. Waited about 15 days after receiving to grind up some beans and still very fresh.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wanting to try interstellar coffee for some time now. I have heard a lot of good reviews, so I decided to try for myself. I'm happy to say I wasn't disappointed! The beans are a perfect medium roast, not oily at all. I like to pull shot of espresso with a medium roast for a more balanced flavor profile. The bag of beans smells fresh, but I was disappointed to not see a roast date. Just a use by date, which was close. Dialing in the beans took three tries, and I finally got the shot I wanted. The shot had a good-looking crema for not knowing the roast date. The flavor notes were spot on. I could taste and smell notes of chocolate and fruit. The slight bitterness makes it perfect for lattes. My favorite drink to make with these beans is iced latte. I feel the flavor notes really shine well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging and look of the product is super sleek and aesthetically pleasing. The flavor and aroma of the beans is so good. They are bold and make a great latte! I used these with an espresso machine, which ground the beans for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We tried this coffee and really enjoyed it. I’m typically a dark roast girlie. But, I took the opportunity to try something new. This medium roast was rich and satisfying. Typically a medium roast leaves me wanting more, these beans did not.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, the packaging is very classy and well done. I also love the name as someone who has two black cats. The name is initially what drew me to it. The quality of the beans is apparent as you open the bag and get an aroma that is rich and heavenly. I’m a coffee lover and am maybe even a coffee snob, and I knew this was good quality just by looking at it. The beans ground easily in my coffee grinder. I personally prefer grinding my own coffee because the taste is almost always 10x better than if it’s pre-ground. So if you’ve never ground your own beans I highly suggest you try it out. There will be no going back! The coffee filled most of my home as it was brewing and smelled even more delectable. The ease of resealing the bag with the zip lock was also a big bonus. Loved the smooth and not at all bitter flavor of the coffee. Medium roast is perfect for describing. Would definitely recommend to others and will purchase in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee has a rich fragrance that comes through the packaging. This fragrance translates to a rich flavor in the coffee. The whole beans provide for a fresher tasting cup.
