  • A good, strong, smooth decaf
Flavor Name: Medium - Coffee-ish Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 2)
I like to switch to decaf in the late afternoon. It's hard to find a good whole bean decaf. Plenty of ground versions, but I have 2 electric grinders, one for regular, one for decaf. I only grind enough for one cup at a time, and I use a Keurig reusable pod. I gave the Blk & Bold a try. The owners give back to the community, so that was good enough to give them a try. This decaf is as strong as you'd like to make it and very smooth, no bite at all. I really like it. I'll buy it again. My son laughs when I give all these coffee companies a try. He's a 17 year veteran machinist at a Starbucks plant. Needless to say I get plenty of free coffee because he gets 2 bags a week and often shares with me. ... show more

  • My go-to coffee
Flavor Name: Medium - Rise & GRND Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great whole bean coffee with no acidic aftertaste. Works great in drip and French press. You may pay a little more, but well worth it

  • decent decaf, easiest to use bag design ever
Flavor Name: Medium - Coffee-ish Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 2)
My first pour over cup with these beans was a little bitter, so on my second cup I lowered my water temperature a little and the flavor is much nicer now. There are definitely chocolatey flavors, maybe too much chocolate, not enough coffee flavor. I'll try again with another lowering of water temp and see how things balance out before changing my grind. The beans are roasted a little darker than the medium roast beans (even other decaf beans) I'm used to and they are much smaller. The size reminds me of Counter Culture Idido Ethiopian origin beans (though that was a very light roast and non-decaf I brewed with a French press with super-long steep time, so this isn't a flavor comparison, just bean size). On a side note, the bag the coffee came in is the best design I've experienced, practically speaking. Trivially easy to open/unseal due to the pull tab, and the zip-closure actually works to keep the bag closed. So many other coffee bean bags are hard to pull open due to the super-strength glue they apparently use to seal it, requiring scissors to cut it open, or the bag material is super weak so any attempt to pull it open tears the bag apart making a big mess, or the bendy-tie to keep the bag closed doesn't stick to the bag. 2023-07-25 update: In my most recent order, I received only one 12oz bag of beans with the 2-pack barcode sticker covering the original barcode on the bag. So somebody messed up the 2-pack packaging process; I don't know if it was Amazon or BLK & Bold. I went through the increasingly common runaround with replacements/returns with Amazon.com, eventually chatted with a human who issued me a refund, and promised that this would not happen again with my next order. Keeping my fingers crossed in a few weeks when the time comes to order more decaf beans. My pourover with this still tastes good, though the beans are different from my previous order. The beans are a little lighter roast (closer to medium than dark) and the beans are larger. ... show more

Was expecting the standard boring coffee. I was plesently surprised by the richness/balance and flavor. Give it a shoot, it's worth it. I bought whole bean.

  • Top quality for the price!
Flavor Name: Light - Limu Ethiopia Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 2)
The price is great for what you get - which is a deliciously mellow Ethiopian bean in sturdy, convenient packaging. The second bag stayed fresh for over a month before I opened it. It is a very light roast so you can’t judge it based on the residue in the bag. I go by the feel of the grounds. The Limu region is incredibly underrated as far as I’ve tasted. Also the beans are visually healthy. This probably has to do with the higher amounts of rainfall the region received in 2020 relative to more Eastern regions like Sidamo and Harrar, whose beans have tended to be smaller and more acidic in recent years and, overall I feel, taste better as medium or darker roasts. I love a flavorful, low acidity light roast in the morning and this brand has hit the spot. The flavor profile given on the package is fairly accurate. I notice a strong chocolaty smell from the bag but the honey and blueberry come through more after brewing. It might be the low acidity and lack of bitterness that makes these flavors outshine the chocolate notes but they are still there in the aroma. The roasters timed these beans perfectly in my opinion. If you like it more flavorful you might want to brew it darker, and therefore use more product per cup, but it does very well brewed at normal strength. Also I think it is good to know that you will need an electric grinder for these beans unless you love the workout of grinding light beans by hand. ... show more

  • Odd taste
Flavor Name: Dark - BLK & Bold Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
PROS: BLK & BOLD blend - This blend has a taste I would describe as a medium roast. The packaging states: Blend-Lemon, Bell Pepper Full Bodied CONS: This is my 1rst order and it was wrong. I ordered whole bean and got ground. The seller states this is non-returnable, so buyer beware that you don't get stuck like I did with the wrong non-returnable product The UPC label states whole bean so it's mislabeled. I'll guess the picker scanned this pkg and picked it based on UPC code There is no roasting date but their is an expiration date of 2 years from now. Don't want to drink 2 year old coffee There is no one-way valve on pkg to release carbon dioxide build up and keep out air. If you order ground I would think this is a must have Unfortunately I am only using a french press and this grind is much too fine for it. The 1rst cup pours okay but the 2nd cup pour takes a long time getting thru the fine grounds. I did order again and got whole beans this time BUT I really don't care for the taste. Will not be ordering again ... show more
