Java Planet Guatemalan Single Origin, Organic Coffee Beans, Low Acid – Mold Free, Whole Bean Coffee, Medium Roast, Smooth Full Flavored, Smithsonian Bird Friendly, 1LB BagUSDA Organic

First time trying this brand--Organic Sumatra Dark Roast whole bean. A few months ago I stopped buying the Sumatra organic and Sumatra non-organic varieties from another roaster when, although initially very good, it became increasingly bitter, both varieties, and they had a problem with their one way valves in the bag (not sure if that was the real problem). So I hadn't ordered from them for a few months and was using Illy Intenso. I decided to try this Sumatra. At the same time I ordered one more bag from the previous seller, hoping they fixed their problems, but the Sumatra dark roast from that company was even worse than before--extremely bitter. I just threw that bag away not even bothering with them. But the Java Planet Organic Sumatra is excellent , and even though it's sold through a third-party shipped by Amazon, it was about four days fresher roast date than the bitter one I ordered direct from the other roaster. (I inadvertently gave a little hint in my last sentence as to who that is)). I will order this again, after I use up the three cans of Illy Intenso Dark Roast which I had been drinking, and bought as insurance when trying the Sumatra again.

So good! We have been wasting our money on Starbucks beans for too long. Not anymore. Our Espresso machine tamps it perfectly each time and the crema is spot on. But the best is the taste. So smooth and no more tummy problems.

This is a great tasting coffee!

Literally the FIRST coffee I've been able to drink in over 25 years!!! I used to get stomach pain with any kind I tried so finally gave up and switched to tea. I recently decided to try again and started looking for a low-acid variety in hopes my sensitive stomach would tolerate it. Voila'!!! I hit the jackpot with this. Not only is it delicious but no stomach pain or reflux!! I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because sadly, it is just too expensive for me to keep getting on a regular basis. But if your budget can handle it, this coffee is GREAT!!

Husband enjoyed this coffee very much.This is one of several brands recommended by Cornell bird center - also know for Merlin and eBird phone aps.This coffee comes in many flavors, and is grown as an understory plant in an ecosystem, instead of as a monocrop.The ecosystem supports many species, including birds.

I've started buying this coffee about 6 months ago and have absolutely loved it. I now buy the 5lb bags.I love the low acidity and the taste.

Taste was rich, but if you have two people in your home and each drinking 1 cup a day, this will only last about 10-14 days.

Amazing
