Not much good about this one, even factoring in the relatively “cheap” price. Just the packaging is good, rest is not worth it.
I’ve tried this particular roaster a couple of times before and the only thing that was consistent across all coffee beans was the inconsistency of the roast and the burnt flavour. Their “medium-dark” roasts are more on the extreme end of dark rather than anywhere close to medium.
The beans here are remarkably oily on their surface and smell of freshly burnt ash and nothing more. The smell after brewing is what I can only describe as “burnt paan” and the taste has a weird bittersweetness which is really unpleasant. I tried it with a french press, moka pot and a paper filtered pourover and none of the methods made it tolerable. The filter pourover was the least bad of the bunch but it took a lot of coffee notes from the flavour away as well so it felt like an empty cup, which could be fine if you want to make a milky drink anyway. It’s just bad by every possible metric.

Aroma- 3/5 Quality- 3/5 Freshness-2/5 as the packaging is old as the the date mentioned on it Taste – 2/5 Espresso tasted hideous. However the Cold brew tasted like starbucks. Well it is clearly a fraud. While ordering it was mentioned dark roast however they came out to be medium roasted beans.

The flavour is not strong. Maybe good for those who like mild flavour. Also the beans are not evenly roasted

Awful tasting coffee. All notes are blunt. Worst experience. Throwing it away

Not really a good product. By the review and the seller description, I thought it would be a good buy, but it has a real bitter taste of highly roasted beans (dark roasting) and the flavor essence drop into the water is much lesser than even lava Gusto coffee beans so its for the coffee drinkers who like to boil their coffee for a while and pour milk into their coffee (or bitter black coffee drinkers).
If you like cold brew coffee, then dont go for this brand. I am now boiling it, using a French press and adding a bit of chicory to even make it worthwhile.
The beans were prepared uniformly and smell fantastic. Other than that I felt it was sub par. Too much bean needs to be used to make coffee (maybe better if you grind it for filter coffee). 2/5

One of the best coffees for this price I have tried
Amazing packaging with one way valve no need to store in canister – just reseal atter each use
Since this is a medium to dark roast level the beans have perfect oil on the surface which is what i like as the crema is great and the oils have a distinct flavour not like those super light / medium roasts – i use it in an espresso machine or make a decoction in my french press and then add milk in it and froth it up nice and easy
This coffee is for the seasoned coffee drinker who likes a good robust cup and an everlasting flavour invigorating your senses
I’d suggest adding slight milk or sugar to taste
I have had this black and it’s again extremely nice – their espresso blend is surprisingly nice and smooth as well
I keep ordering both of them regularly no complaints whatsoever
