REVIEWS & COMMENTS
VERY NICE COFFEE!
samuellaw178 | Thu, 03/29/2012 - 21:22Had some problem with shipping and the coffee was delayed. Ordered on 3/5 and only received today, 3/29. The coffee seems like it was just reposted to me but I can't be sure.
Anyhow! The coffee itself was phenomenal!! I pulled it as ristretto espresso upon arrival. The crema was thick and plentiful. The body was very heavy as expected. The first sip revealed a very fruity overall taste and it was followed by a strong pineapple! I've seen many coffees with the descriptors 'pineapple' and now I am a believer. I double checked with the description from the roaster and there's nothing about this 'pineapple'. But that's not important. I am sure I did taste that! The coffee might be a little bright for some but I am getting more used to fruity coffee and this is definitely one of my top list of fruity coffee. Keep in mind that this is pulled upon arrival. If it was weeks old, I am not sure how well it would hold against time. But I definitely had a glimpse of the coffee. It's definitely very good! Let's see in a few days.
For the price and taste of the coffee, I can easily give 5/5, heck, even 5.5/5 just because it's the best bang for the buck with best taste! However, the experience definitely took a little off this coffee. But my last order from the roaster was fairly quick, so this might just be an accident. Overall, it's a bittersweet experience for me.
GOOD MEDIUM
bctr1998 | Thu, 02/02/2012 - 19:14A nice medium coffee. It does not taste sweet as the description suggests, more smoky. Shipped on time and fresh.
CLASSIC GUATAMALAN FLAVOR
writeturn | Thu, 12/15/2011 - 15:19Very well balanced and drinkable. Slightly spicy, very good body, well rounded.
OKAY AND FRESH
pammyjo1 | Mon, 10/03/2011 - 13:08I like this blend okay for brewing, but it's not something I'll buy again. It's a matter of preference, not quality. I think it has too much of a certain flavor which I can't quantify. This is from Unique Coffee Roasters, who make great coffee so it's not a reflection on them. I prefer Columbian Supreme so far of any of theirs I tried. It happens to suit us just right.
This blend has a tiny bit of a bite to it which I don't relish, but it is still okay and better than "plain" ground type coffees.
MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE
heatherreb | Thu, 09/15/2011 - 09:00I love this smooth & spicy coffee! In fact, I am enjoying a cup right now. I love all the coffee from Unique Coffee Roasters. Initially, I was to this blend because it is responsibly grown & harvested and the price is great - it has since become my favorite.
YUMMY!
jgreeno | Tue, 09/13/2011 - 11:22We bought several selections from Unique Coffee Roasters, and this was our favorite hands down. Great flavor - definitely will reorder!
