I find every Kirkland coffee to be way darker than what the bag says! Not bad, just not what you expect by a “medium roast”, just be weary as sometimes the beans will be oily and go stale pretty quick.
@WholeBrainCoffee2 жыл бұрын
These were pretty oily and dark but they held up surprisingly well. It's always a hit or miss with these types of bags as they have multiple year expiration dates and you never really know how old the beans are when you buy them. This bag was probably pretty fresh though. I always like seeing a "roasted on" date on a bag rather than an expiration date

I think you guys were a bit harsh. This is my favorite affordable coffee brand for bulk. It's dark yes, but that's what I like. I prefer a dark coffee that isn't burnt like French Roast. Usually this is my favorite bang for the buck dark roast, and it reminds strongly of a dark bitter chocolate. This is not a coffee I'm preparing anyway more special then in a mr coffee maker after fresh grinding. This is just on stand by for family waking up. However what I like best about it is it's dependable with hardly any variation. This coffee is stronger then 90% of the world's pansy feelings. I know what I'm getting and I'm getting good coffee for the price point. Also this is NOTHING like chickory coffee...maybe you should try and review nawlins style chikory coffee (technically not coffee) it's also a root, not a wood. Is this the best coffee? nope, Do I also like to buy better coffee for special occasions or maybe after dinner? yes. Do I need snooty coffee to keep from murdering people in the morning? Nope.

I don't know where you are located, but I am in the Detroit area and this coffee has never been $25 and I have been using it for 10 years. It's currently $16.99 for 3 lbs. and the method by which you brew it has an effect on the taste.

In store this is three pounds for $18 I think. I agree it's on the darker side but quite good for cold brew or iced coffee. I wish Costco would carry more light roast in store.

I bought this recently at Costco and instantly regret it. The coffee tastes very burnt, very woody and smoky. It's terrible. I'm returning the bag back to Costco. Costco says if you're not satisfied with the product, it can be returned - I'm going to do just that.

@randyw41 Жыл бұрын
I read somewhere, maybe on the bag, that it is roasted by Starbucks. This might explain the dark burnt taste. I make my morning brew in an electric percolator. I measure my coffee by weight, and I've found that I use less coffee per pot because of its strength. In my opinion, Sam's Makers mart offering is a better bargain, and a better taste overall...

Good morning guys! Costco has some good coffee. The Kirkland House Blend also claims to be medium roast but is very smoky and dark. The Kirkland House is roasted by Starbucks I wonder if this Colombia Supreme is as well. It would explain the darkness to them.

Ohh that's an interesting fact, I didn't know that Starbucks roasted their Kirkland house blend. I wonder if this one has similar origins as it would explain a lot

Do you guys have a favorite dark roast? I saw your review of Oakland's father of all dark roast and actually ended up trying that coffee and it was pretty good but I'm looking for some others to try. My preference has always been ULTRA dark roasts like the oakland father of all dark roasts. I like italian style of french roast coffees. There's a richness in them that I just prefer.

I would say 🤔 that the cat on the label is a Jaguar, because the coffee is Columbian, and Jaguars exist in south America, Cheetah's are from Africa and have the distinct black tear drops, and do not exist in south America. Leopards 🐆 are slightly smaller than Jaguars

A jaguar is a type of leopard that lives in Central & South America - so while leopard is technically correct, I'm guessing they were aiming for a jaguar since that's were the coffee is grown.
