“Really not a fan of this blend. I can’t get it to taste good no matter what I try. Probably one of the most disappointing coffees I’ve tried in a while. Especially given the reviews.
There’s quite an earthy profile to this coffee which I’m really not keen on… and a definite chicory aftertaste which lingers for a while afterwards. It’s quite strong, even when milk is added, but I suppose that’s to be expected from a darker roast with higher extraction etc…
As someone who generally drinks medium to lighter roasts I found this blend a bit full-on and I probably wouldn’t order it again. Sorry.
(I’m brewing mine freshly ground in a high end grinder using an Aeropress and James Hoffmann’s ‘ultimate’ recipe)”
