The fragrance didn't bother me but I didn't care for this flavored coffee's taste. It wasn't awful, just not for me. I gave the rest of the bag to someone else who might like it.
Loved the wonderful aroma of Toasted Southern Pecan flavored coffee. Couldn't wait to open the bag. Aroma 5/5
Tastes good, but not as impressive as some coffees I like from Italy and Colombia. Taste 3/5.
Great introduction to flavored coffees. Looking forward to trying some of this brewer's other flavors.
So far I have tried the Costa Rica La Amistad beans. I ground them using my Capresso cool bean grinder and brewed the coffee using my french press. The beans were fresh, high quality, and I enjoyed a smooth cup of coffee this morning. However, the flavor of this Costa Rica coffee was not as enjoyable to me as coffees I have had from other countries. I look forward to trying the other samples that came with this gourmet coffee kit 5-pack.
Just tried the Ethiopia Yirgacheffe. Great aroma, smooth, good quality. But had a burnt or bitter taste. Wouldn't re-order.
Honduras Santa Rosa: not as much aroma with these beans. Pleased with the quality and smoothness, however taste didn't knock my socks off.
NOT MY CUP OF TEA (ERRR..COFFEE)

UNPLEASANT TASTE AND FRAGRANCE
dkla | Tue, 02/07/2012 - 13:31I didn't care for the strong fragrance and didn't like the taste either. I tried some and threw the rest out.
DON'T LIKE THE FRAGRANCE, TASTE IS OKAY
dkla | Tue, 02/07/2012 - 13:30I don't care for the off-putting rum-like fragrance. The taste is okay. I wouldn't order again.
WONDERFUL AROMA, GOOD FLAVOR
