Pros & Cons
Pros
This espresso is pretty darn good, and it's fair trade coffee. For the price, no one competes with them. Altura also makes a very good middle priced coffee. Wish was carried by costco.
Oily, good beans. With the correct grind and extraction method it makes a very good cup of coffee. Changing the grind to moderately coarse and increasing the saturation time removed that burnt-sugar flavor and made a pretty tasty drink.
Cons
The beans are not shiny and dark, the brew is not strong or bold and it lacks that beautiful chocolatey, roasted coffee taste. Very short time until expiration date. Beans are slightly stale as all beans degrade over time.
Highlights
Quality
I am saving money and he's happy with the coffee!
A perfect replacement, as costco, no longer sells this product.
Competitiveness
I have a capresso machine and it makes the best cappuccinos anywhere.
I have been bying peets major dickanson's blend for years and decided to see if i could find something i liked for less.
