Coffee lover here and very picky. This is my absolute favorite. I agree with others though that you have to like light roast coffee or this isn’t for you. I drink mine black and use a percolator to brew it. When I don’t have the money for this one, I buy the organic Ethiopia light roast (I think good and gather organic brand) which is also very good at a lower price point.
Hands Down Favorite!

This coffee sets the bar for me. Even though I am not a coffee connoisseur, El Gallo is the only coffee that I can find off the shelf that has actual flavor - the notes leaning toward high/acidic/citrus. Note, that if you like dark/espresso roasts, you probably won't like this one (like others have mentioned and like a friend of mine who likes espresso raosts).

Packaging described this as a medium roast with hints of honey and cola. Not only are these flavor profiles unidentifiable, the wet inclusions nearly destroyed my coffee grinder on my breville! I wanted to love this. I really did. It's so rare to find a whole bean coffee with an appropriate roast date in a big name store like this. Would not recommend!

Weak taste. Beans were very dry. Taste was ok. Will not repurchase.
A little weak, for a medium roast

Doesn’t taste like a medium roast, more like a light roast—- if light roast is your thing, than you might like this one.
Flavorless and weak

My go to coffee from most grocery retailers. Great balance of acidity, sweetness, and bitterness. One of the few roasts you can find that isn’t completely burnt to hell and back. I’m amazed by the one and two star reviews, but I’m not surprised most people don’t really know how coffee should taste. If you love coffee, you will like this. If you love Starbucks then you should stick to your burnt beans and k cups.
Did they say chocolate?

I love sweet or chocolate flavored coffee. I feel this hits the spot perfectly. I normally make candy like coffee to cover up the sour/bitter aftertaste but with this blend I was able to use only milk. I prefer my coffee cold so I added ice which may change the strength. I do not love the price but I would certainly buy more of this one.

Very bitter and flavorless. May be the worst coffee we’ve ever bought for our automatic machine.

I did not like this coffee. The taste was weak, but when I added more grounds it tasted horrible. Also, too acidic and my creamer always separated from the coffee every morning

I will only buy organic coffee, and this is the absolute best I’ve tried. So smooth with no bitter after taste. I drink mine with almond milk and no sugar and it’s wonderful.
