This coffee is probably very good if purchased fresh from CBD, but since it must have sat in an Amazon warehouse for who knows how long, it was stale and tasted like vomit. Do yourself a favor, try it with flavor. Go direct.

This is the second five pound bag of whole bean coffee that I have purchased. The first was the Guatemalan. They both had the same problems. The beans seemed dry and the coffee lacked flavor. While the price was good, the coffee tastes worse than a cheap convenience store brand coffee. It is not so bad that I feel the need to throw it out but I expected more. If anyone has any suggestions of a good brand of organic, fair trade coffee in bulk please let me know.

Stuck with it. Gonna have to order something else cus I can't take drinking it anymore.

There's a tag stuck on the bag with the numbers "30911". If it's meant to be a date of some significance then that's clearly a problem because March 9, 2011 was almost 9 months ago.

FWIW this is the second 5 lb. bag of Coffee Bean Direct that I have received from Amazon. The first one was one of the Sumatrans and it was fresh... tasted great

In my opinion, this is the best coffee available. I drank some a couple decades ago and kept looking for it. Amazon has it. And the price is still less (by my reckoning) than a k cup system.

whole bean Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. organic. fair trade. this is a beautiful product. a morning coffee that is not this is a waste. my favorite.

I bought the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe because I tasted it at the local coffee shop. at 2.30 a cup I thought it was a little steep. Buying this solved the problem. Tastes fresh, and just like my local coffee shop. I will buy again.
