WARNING: This coffee may cause unreasonable levels of productivity
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)
I bought Kicking Horse “Kick Ass” Coffee because apparently regular coffee was no longer capable of handling the level of tired I bring to the table. First cup: “Ohhh, this is GOOD.” Second cup: I could hear colors. Third cup: I refinanced the house, reorganized the garage, solved three family problems nobody asked me to solve, and started looking around for drywall that needed hanging. This coffee does not gently wake you up. It kicks open the bedroom door, flips on the lights, slaps the snooze button out of your hand and screams, “GET UP. WE HAVE THINGS TO DO.” The flavor is rich, bold, smooth, and strong without tasting like somebody cremated the beans behind a gas station. I used to drink coffee to wake up. Now I drink Kicking Horse and wait for the rest of the world to catch up. 10/10. Will absolutely buy again. Just don’t drink it at 8 PM unless you’ve been meaning to remodel your kitchen overnight. ... show more

Warning: May Cause Sudden Corporate Takeovers
Size: 10 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This nectar of the gods is the only reason I willingly exit my warm, comfortable bed every morning instead of faking my own death to avoid work. Before my first cup, my motivation levels are so low that even deciding to breathe feels like a strenuous workout. But after that glorious first sip? Absolute transformation. Yesterday, I drank a cup of this liquid lightning and felt such a sudden surge of raw, unhinged ambition that I accidentally promoted myself from janitor to CEO before lunch. I didn’t even work at that company. I just walked in with a mop, drank the coffee, started shouting about "synergy" and "market disruption," and now I have a corner office and a corporate parking spot. If you want to stop sleeping and start conquering the corporate ladder by sheer caffeinated audacity, buy this immediately. 10/10. ... show more

Bold, Nice Taste

Great taste. Would prefer ground coffee instead of beans though.

Enough caffeine for third shift.
Size: 10 Ounce (Pack of 1)
A good value coffee. I order many bags of beans a month as someone who works the night shift. These seem to have plenty of punch in them to wake you up and keep you awake. No complaints about the taste but also nothing that really stands out to make it memorable. Will order again as the price is right. ... show more

This is THE ONE!
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)
Once upon a time, my husband and I used to buy a cup (at least) of coffee shop coffee every day. Eventually, we decided we should just make coffee ourselves at home: buy the packaged coffee shop coffee, make it on our home coffee maker, done and done, right? Well, not so much. The coffee we made at home just didn't taste the same as it did in the coffee shop, and we couldn't figure out why. So we researched. What we found was that there are about a billion variables to making a good cup of coffee. And after all our research regarding methods and equipment along with a bit of trial and error, we now have our home coffee making perfected to our liking. I'd like to caveat this by saying that I am by no means an expert on this stuff--just a regular person who did a lot of research and figured out what PERSONALLY works for me, and if anything I say here happens to help someone out who was in the same shoes I was, then that's great. First off, the coffee maker. We brew our coffee in a Technivorm Moccamaster (apparently one of the few consumer coffee makers that actually heats the water up to be hot enough to reach the ideal temp for making coffee--probably the biggest reason why our initial attemps at home coffee making failed. It's pretty pricey, but you can replicate the same results for much cheaper using a $15 pourover contraption, though it'll involve a more manual effort on your behalf. Another alternative at $150--still somewhat pricey, but about half the cost of the Technivorm--is the Bonavita; if the Bonavita was around back when we were researching coffee makers 3 years ago, we probably would've opted to get that one instead, primarily for the cost savings. The Technivorm was our best option at the time, though, so that's what we got, and we're still extremely happy with it, even after 3 years of daily use.). Just as importantly, we make sure to use high-quality whole bean coffee [stored well if you're not using the whole bag within a week (we use the Friis coffee vault) since CO2 and light are not friends to coffee beans. We also freshly grind just enough whole beans for that particular brew cycle just prior to brewing, and we use a good quality BURR grinder--in our case, the Capresso Infinity burr grinder. Refer to Alton Brown's coffee episode if you're curious why it's so important to use a burr grinder as opposed to a blade grinder.]. We eventually realized we weren't huge fans of a lot of the whole bean coffees easily obtained in supermarkets or large chain coffee shops (I'm looking at you, Starbucks), yet didn't like paying shipping for the coffees from independent, small-batch roasters (as good as those coffees were, I really, REALLY hate paying for shipping). As such, I turned to my trusty Amazon Prime to save the day. I found Kicking Horse Coffee Kick Ass Dark Whole Bean Coffee via the stellar reviews, placed an order, and hoped for the best (2.2 lbs. is a lot of coffee to have if it turns out I didn't like it). Thankfully, I'm happy to say that I've found THE ONE! This coffee is complex, deep, and smoky, yet without any burnt taste at all. And the fact that it's fair-trade and organic is icing on the cake. And (AND!) if that weren't enough, it's quickly and easily available on Amazon Prime AND part of their subscribe-and-save program. WIN! Extra tips: - Preheat your carafe and coffee mugs by filling with hot water and discarding before using so that the cold carafe and coffee mugs don't steal all the heat from your freshly brewed coffee. - Only use good quality, filtered water for brewing. - Make sure you grind your coffee according to how coarse/fine is recommended for the particular coffee you are using, and make sure you use the correct proportions of coffee to water (for those who have European coffee makers such as the Technivorm, keep in mind that a cup of coffee made in these coffee makers is typically less ounces than in American coffee makers). - Clean your burr grinder on a regular basis by using the white rice method. This is especially important if you grind oily coffee beans such as Kicking Horse Kick Ass Dark. ... show more

Well Who Wants Some Coffee?
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)
I don't like coffee. Not in the way most people like it. Having a cup of coffee is not a make-or-break deal with morning, not for me. So why buy coffee at all? Coffee, in general, is kind of expensive and requires some specialty equipment for brewing (oh yes, you can put it in a pot of water on the stove and boil it, and done right, that's amazing coffee especially if you like a few crunchy bits in your cup). And there's the free trade fairness thing we're all supposed to be thinking about, and frankly, I didn't check on Kicking Horse's bean-buying policy, so I can't tout my shine there. Slap me. So... why would a coffee-indifferent, socially unaware blubber head buy coffee or even bother to check the five-stars-for-excellence box and post a review??? Because this coffee is what it claims to be. Kick Ass Dark coffee. It is not pretend espresso. It is not pre-ground to a powder fine enough to snort. It is an honest dark chocolate colored whole bean coffee that is bitter enough to be interesting, yet mellow enough that it doesn't try to climb back up your throat. It blends well with other coffees, and it can sit in the carafe overnight, get zapped in the microwave and still be great. But that's my opinion. Oh, and it's also not as expensive as a lot of the other coffee offerings on Amazon. Oh, and the 2.2-pound pouch is a good size for the price. Oh, and even though I have that 2.2lb. pouch for over a month, the last pot of coffee it makes is as good as the first. One of the major coffee companies (grocery store stuff) makes a blend they call "Black Silk" which is the worst coffee I've ever had, and that includes vending machine coffee from the hospital staff lounge. There was this free-trade Ugandan coffee I got as a gift, and this organic single bean limited harvest coffee from Jamaica (I think) that were ultra-memorable as the best coffee I've ever had, but were far too expensive to make a habit of. Put those on the taste scale of Black Silk = 0, Ugandan & Jamaican =10, Kicking Horse Kick Ass Dark is an 8. To me. What it is to you... well, how can I know? If I did, I'd be freaking scary, wouldn't I? And you'd be looking over your shoulder.... under your bed... in your closets... watching conspiracy theory videos on YouTube and preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse. Just have some coffee. The voices tell me a cup of coffee can cure just about anything. ... show more

Average
Size: 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)
I'm new to the coffee world and recently got a nice manual whole bean grinder Aeropress, and Mocapot to enhance my coffee experience. I am a foodie and liquor snob so I enjoy eating and drinking but only because of flavor profiles and how each flavor plays off one another. I like dark roasts and drink my coffee black, espresso style with a volume between short and long. I enjoy bitter notes and flavor that punches you in the throat without a grainy finish where each sip electrifies the taste buds without puckering your cheeks, but also having enough volume to be able to sip coffee in the morning. As I am getting into the coffee world my first brand was Petes Dark Roast. It was lightyears better than my Nespresso but in comparison to other brands it falls short. My second brand was Mayorga Muy Mucho, which is my favorite brand to date, however I wanted other brands to choose between. I freeze and vacuum seal my beans for freshness and rotate between brands each week. I had heard good things about Kicking Horse but this bag fell through for me. The flavors seem immature in comparison to Mayorga and the taste is a much watered-down version of what I had gotten used to. I know that Kicking Horse has some other dark roasts but I'd rate the flavor as average and because of that I'm not interested in trying additional flavors. I have incorporated expresso vodka from Van Gough Distillery into my espressos and a dash of burbon cream, both from Mayorga and Kicking Ass, and when blind taste tested Mayorga comes out on top for both me and others I served. The packaging was fine, everything about the company was fine, just not a flavor that I enjoy. If you enjoy rich, bold, dark roasts, try Mayorga Muy Mucho instead. ... show more
