Coffeehouse flavor. At-home price.
Flavor Name: Whole Bean Original
Size: 2 Pound (Pack of 1)
It’s Tim Horton’s coffee. Of COURSE it’s good! There are two secrets to brewing great coffee: 1) Beans begin to oxidize the moment they are ground. Always grind exactly as many as you are going to use in the next hour. This will ensure that you get the most, and best, flavor from the beginning of the
bag to the end. 2) The most important flavors in coffee are carried in the oils. Coffee oil which sits for any length of time turns rancid. This makes the old oils on the surface of your machine bitter. If you don’t remove them, they will ruin the next batch of coffee. (In other words, rinse every metal and plastic surface which comes in contact with coffee - in Hot, Running water - between each use of the machine. If that sounds like a lot of work, let me assure you that it’s worth the effort! Your family and friends will soon be asking why your coffee is so much better than everyone else’s. If you want to take this to the next level, add three shakes of cinnamon, and half a shake of nutmeg, just before brewing.) Tim Horton’s whole bean coffee is a great place to start. Enjoy!

Surprisingly Yummy, and for the price... Wow.
Flavor Name: Medium Blend
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
For quite some time, I enjoyed imported coffee (I know, most all is ;), like Lavazza Super Crema, just as my regular daily driver. I would experiment with various other offshoots of blends, flavors, even quite a few other brands, and in the end, I found Lavazza Top Class Filtro (not regular Filtro, d
ifferent) to be my favorite, edging out Super Crema. To give some further information which I consider is really essential for a coffee review, is to describe the coffee of which I am most a fan. For me, that is a medium to medium-heavy blend, with nutty notes, maybe some chocolate hints, etc... That fall sort of rich and creamy blend is my all-around favorite. I'll leave off a whole lot more detail than that. I'm no coffee expert, but surely like most, I know what I like. I also well know what I don't. I won't go into too much detail here, but suffice it to say, that as far as US Store Brands go, I don't consider many to be very good at all. To me, the worst offender regarding store brand is all of it being pre-ground. I mean, as it is likely nitrogen filled in the bag to maintain that initial freshness, once opened, each passing hour is just killing that flavor. My store brand go-to in this department, when necessary, has been Gevalia House Blend. Just as described earlier, nutty, smooth, good flavor, aroma and a decent kick, but not enough to have me zooming. Yet even this not inexpensive coffee won't pass 3-4 days when it simply is about as meh as most any other coffee out there. Truly it is a travesty that they don't sell the brand as whole bean, but that's another story. Pretty much all else that is "lesser", i.e. Folgers, Melita, etc... They are all barely passable at all. Absolutely not very good, and that's being nice. Get the job done, but not there to be really enjoyed and savored. All of that providing the groundwork from whence I offer my thoughts here, based on budget and really just taking a chance, I saw a bag here for a little over $6, and I pulled the trigger. I didn't expect much at all, but was really just grabbing myself a small bag while I waited out a bump in price hikes for my favorites. They had doubled in price for a small hitch, and while I expected it would pass, it was a n opportunity to try something new. Ok, the end is actually fairly simple. This coffee did for me at about 50c an ounce, what $1-2 an ounce at times was through Lavazza and other like brands. It was very fresh. Aromatic. Quite nutty, and for the price, I don't think there is a coffee that can compare, not at least one I've tried. I have now purchased 4 more bags in a row, and I don't know if I'll even change off, so long as they keep delivering this coffee at this price point. I mean, I even hesitated writing this review, lest I draw more attention to them and they begin raising their prices. C'est la vie. Credit and honor where it is due. (Timmy, remember this ole boy when your business picks up, and do me a solid! :D ) Having fun, of course. In the end, I am really quite happy with this product, and for the price. Just, wow. I suggest you give it a try if you haven't already. In truth, I wouldn't compare the store served coffee to this, as this is simply much better. Oh, last tip, and a must if you really want the best coffee can offer. You absolutely must grind it fresh. Seriously. Grinders are so cheap, and the smell of fresh ground coffee alone is worth the bump in experience. Let alone the flavor incomparably better. Hope this helps. Ps. Don't buy it all up! Lates!

Love Tim Hortons
Flavor Name: Whole Bean Original
Size: 2 Pound (Pack of 1)
By far my favorite everyday coffee! I live in the USA and have TH come by mail every 2 weeks (whole bean of course). Smooth and bold enough flavor. Everyone who comes over for a cup of coffee compliments me every time on how great my coffee is! If I was to pick a close 2nd it would be Dunkin Donuts.

Tastes just as good as Starbucks for a better price.
Flavor Name: Medium Blend
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Smooth, rich and robust coffee beans. These taste as good as Starbucks tastes and are a better value for the money. I like the Tim Hortons whole bean better than the ground version or the Decaf. Very fresh and tasty. Works well in my K Cup filter holder and works well when ground a bit finer for espr
esso in my espresso maker, too. Would probably work well on a fine grind in a French Press, too. I love Tim Hortons.

Great coffee if you make it right.
Flavor Name: Medium Blend
Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
If you actually make the coffee right you can make a great cup of coffee. Usually the coffee at Tim’s Hortons kinda sucks and has no flavor. How I make my coffee: 12g of freshly ground coffee. Pour 225g of fresh water at 200f. When you make it this way it has a hazelnut kinda flavor notes. Smells and
tastes wonderful

Good consistent mild but uninspiring every dya coffee
Flavor Name: Whole Bean Original
Size: 2 Pound (Pack of 1)
That about it. It's far from a "bad" coffee, but it is not a "wow" coffee either. It is not our "go-to" coffee, but we keep some in our coffee station if we're having a second cup after a more flavorful, and usually more expensive, first cup of coffee. It's not special but it is very drinkable. I gue
ss that is what one should expect from a diner-brand coffee. We'll probably keep buying it.

My hubby & I just started using the whole bean grinder and ceramic pour over method and we’re SO GLAD we did! I ordered this to see if it’s all that we’ve heard of from Northern friends…and it’s very good. Has great aroma, good rich taste, will definitely buy again!

Just as good as SparBucks👍

Just as good as a more expensive brands "Breakfast Blend". Will be a new subscriber👍 Same fresh aroma after a fresh grind, same envigoratingly bitter dark flavor with a slight tang that I am used to. I know this brand is popular in Canada.
