    The description says deep aftertaste. I only found a subtle aftertaste, which was disappointing as this is the reason why I got this coffee. This is a "somewhat hearty" blend which would attract the person who wants something more than a lighter generic tasting blend.
    The beans area about as oily as you will ever get. My grinder needs frequent cleanings with a bean so oily.
    The acid was low, but still present, with a French Press, but gone with a gold filter in a high quality steam pressured/ drip machine.
    If you do buy it, you may want to also mix these beans up with some other coffee beans to see what new tastes you can create that are to your liking.
