Was our favorite coffee for many years. Now it has changed. What happened? Is there a new quality control person who doesn't know how post alley is supposed to taste? For the cost of a bag it is upsetting when you open and then don't want to drink it. Please fix it. It tastes stale, weak, and nothing like post alley 6 months ago.

I drink espresso coffee only and have been trying several different coffees. For the past two years I have been grinding the Post Alley to an espresso grind and have found the flavor better than the coffee shops around. If you grind it and bag it, I would buy it and I am sure others would buy it too.
It has changed for the worse.

As of late, it is NOT the same coffee... as others have said, it is as if they put the wrong coffee in the post alley bag. Course ground, no aroma, completely weak flavor, etc. Please fix this issue, cant drink this.

I've also been drinking Post Alley for several years, so I know how it's supposed to taste. There's definately a drop in quality from the initial aroma of the beans to the muddled flavor of the brew. Not smooth, smokey, and delicious like it used to be. Once, very comparable to Starbucks dark roasts, it's not any more. Will be trying other brands and/or buying Starbucks on sale.

Wrong coffee being packaged as Post Alley Blend

Inconsistent. It's as if there was a bad lot. Same issues as other bad reviews. The roast is lighter, the grind is coarser and the packaging is different and much more difficult to open. I thought the issue was solved, but my most recent box of three bags is back to the wrong coffee in the Post Alley packaging. Very disappointing. The quality was excellent and consistent for years. I definitely won't recommend this coffee anymore.

Recent Drop Off in Quality -

I agree with the previous reviewer's comments about recent decline in quality. I have been purchasing and enjoying post alley ground coffee for years as well, and I have also noticed a very recent drop off in quality. The grind is frequently far too fine - and the flavor has often become pedestrian instead of the rich, earthy satisfying flavor I used to enjoy. Seattle's (previously) Best - why has this happened? And where will I buy my ground coffee now?

I have to say that I’ve been shopping around for a new coffee but this is not going to be it. It was recommended to me by a neighbor and even he said this is not the same batch/coffee he’s been drinking for years. Bought the 3 pack but will be returning immediately.

There's a distinct bitterness that makes this coffee unpalatable. As though the roasting process caused beans to char.

That's certainly not what we want you to experience with our coffee. We'll be in touch soo, Cee.

I keep seeing "We'll be in touch soon!" as a response to complaints about this coffee, but never an explanation as to what went wrong. This coffee is horrible lately. I used to love it, but something has changed and no one will fess up.
Used to be a great coffee.

This use to be one of my favorite coffees but it is nothing like what I used to buy. It used to be a fine grind and black. Now it is brown and the grind is coarse. Terrible coffee now.
