5.0 out of 5 stars First Rate Blend., February 1, 2009

This review is from: Kirkland Signature House Blend Whole Bean Coffee, Starbucks Roast, 2 lb (Grocery)

I really enjoy coffee, and I have ever since my teenage years. My tastes have gradually evolved and escalated. The first to go was any kind of instant coffee. How anyone could drink that swill is beyond me. Next to go was any kind of additive, such as cream or sugar. The next to go was any kind of ground coffee in a can. Some is marginally OK, but compared to whole-bean coffee, it just doesn't cut it. No, whole-bean coffee without any additives and ground on the spot is the only coffee I'll drink, short of some kind of emergency.

When It comes to whole-bean coffees, there's quite an amazing variety. I found Trader Joe's to have an excellent selection from all over the world, and the cost (on a per pound basis) was typically about 50% that of what you might expect to pay in the local super market. I particularly liked their Columbian Supremo. The problem is, the local Trader Joe"s is a long way off and I sometimes run out between visits. Well, I've then picked up some large bags of beans, one of which was Starbucks French Roast, at my local Costco store and it was quite excellent. Starbucks is first rate, but tends to be somewhat pricey, even when purchased at Costco.

Well, one day I discovered the Kirkland Signature House Blend bags of whole-bean coffee at Costco. In my opinion, Kirkland Signature products have always been of the highest quality but at a substantially reduced price. For example, this Kirkland coffee is almost half the cost (on a per pound basis) of Starbucks French Roast. But, right on the front of the Kirkland package it says "Roasted by Starbucks Coffee Co." Hmmmm. I just had to try this one. Well, it's excellent. It's a little less robust than my Starbucks French Roast, but I prefer it that way. I'd say it's first rate coffee at a bargain basement price. Buying whole-bean coffee at the local supermarket is now out of the question.

2.0 out of 5 stars I think this coffe has changed recently, March 19, 2011

We used to drink this all the time. It was a great coffee. But recently we noticed that the formula has changed. Something has changed, because both my wife and started noticing that the taste was different and it always tastes a little weak now. We've tried a few different brands lately, and sure enough, something about that Kirkland coffee is different than before, and we just don't care for it. I wonder what changed?

I purchased this at my local Costco (I'm still a little unsure as to how Amazon carries Kirkland brand?). It was much cheaper (less than ten bucks), but it is some DARN good coffee! It is mild, smooth, and has an amazing flavor. I was a little "iffy" on it when I first picked it up, but you surely won't be disappointed!
