Jamaican Blue Mountain

As great at it is well known, the coffee brings in the dark taste and my parents really loved them when I gave them as a gift. Also gave it to my GF and she honestly told me it was too dark for her and preferred more of a mild coffee, so I would recommend this coffee to those of you who already like or tried several different brands of dark coffee and liked it. Or to those of you that just want to journey the world of dark coffee that could be bit bitter initially. In the end, it's a good coffee brand with freshly roasted beans and have a great smell flowing through the beg. Would definitely say no regrets!

Been drinking Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee for approx 30 years. This coffee is good. Very smooth. But it doesn't have the flavor and aroma I've come to expect. Was it worth the $150.00 price tag? No. For that much money, I expect to be 'blown away' when it hits my mouth. This coffee fails in that regard. Traditional Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee tastes and smells like no other. Don't know what this is, but it's not Jamaican Blue. Volcanica can say whatever they want and post their bona fides, verified farms, etc. The proof is in the tasting, and this doesn't make the grade. I will never buy another bag of coffee from Volcanica.

This coffee is delicious. It's probably the smoothest coffee I've ever brewed and I can understand why it's so sought after. It's so pleasant, the people who prefer tea over coffee because of how less bitter tea is might really enjoy these beans. I think I can taste chocolate and peanut notes; my cup sort of smells like a Kit Kat. Unfortunately, this coffee is very expensive but I've heard so much about it, I had to try it and for that reason it was worth it for me.

My wife, our resident coffee connoisseur, had recently commented that the coffee I purchased from a Wisconsin roaster and made her one morning was “off”. I subsequently added cinnamon to hide whatever it was she found wrong until the pound was consumed. I purchased your product as a test, received it surprisingly quickly, and delivered her first fresh-brewed cup this morning. Her eyes lit up immediately and she commented how good this was. Her ability to notice the difference is uncanny and her expression was worth the expense. As for me, I added my stevia and cream knowingly destroying the time and effort you put into your superior product. I will look forward to doing this again at special family gatherings as I’m afraid she’s passed her sensitivity onto our children. Thank you and every person involved in producing and providing this wonderful product.

It's coffee beans, I got it for the novelty of trying fancy beans but overall wouldn't keep it as a daily driver. It's pretty good but not the best coffee in the world by any means. It's smooth and has a smokey natural sweetness to it if that makes sense. It wasn't farm fresh, the flavor is better than Folgers but their is strong competition for better value.

As many serious coffee drinkers know, 80% of Blue Mountain coffee goes to Japan. Japanese love coffee. They spend many hours in small cafes enjoying coffee and other delicacies. So, I was introduced to Blue Mountain 30 years ago while I was in Japan. I still remember its smooth taste when I had it in Japan. I got the urge to get Blue Mountain again but I couldn't find it in nearby cafes. So, I ordered it from Amazon but very skeptical since there were many Blue listed from low to high prices. I chose the one with highest review rating - not for price but for taste. I got the package. Nice sweet roasted flavor emerged as I opened the package. I tried with French Press first but I did not get sweet oily taste I remember. Next, I used Cuisinart Grind & Brew (for one cup). It grinds beans to very fine powder and drips very slowly for about 3 minutes. The Blue Mountain taste came alive as I remember and probably even better. I used the same coffee filter (after removing previous coffee grinds) for the second cup. Believe it or not, it made better coffee due to slower dripping, about 4 minutes. It takes trial and error to make a great cup of coffee. I'll grind finer for French press next time. I extend my appreciation to Amazon and Volcanica Coffee to bring great coffee back for me.

This coffee is very good. I ordered a pound of whole beans. It arrived about 45 days after it was roasted. I used a blade grinder and made it in a French press. It was great. I'm only giving it 4 stars because I do think its somewhat over priced. $90 is a bit high, even for Jamaica Blue Mountain. But the quality of the product is superb.

Ordered two 1lb bags of Volcanica Coffee Store's "Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, 100% Pure, Whole Bean, Fresh Roasted, 16-ounce. The roasted beans are dry in appearance, with no lovely light film of coffee bean oil whatsoever. The smell and taste is sour, dull, and reminiscent of what you might imagine it's like to drink something that's dirty, where the dry bean leaves behind a 'dirty dust' on your tongue. It was roasted 29 days ago, but that wouldn't be the source of these woes. The vendor simply shouldn't have shipped this bean, as it wouldn't pass any, nor even make it into a competition or high-grading arena. Even $20/lb Organic Columbian Coffee beans are a relief after trying to drink this! And I tried, going through a full cup of straight black coffee, dripped with the award winning "Technivorm 79112 KBT Coffee Brewer, 40 oz, Polished Silver ". Note that unethical coffee vendors have been a problem on Amazon for years, and recently the only vendor I've enjoyed so far is Kona Gold's "Kona Gold Coffee Whole Beans - 16 oz, by Kona Gold Rum Co. - Medium/Dark Roast Extra Fancy - 100% Kona Coffee" - let's hope they keep it up! :)
