    Amazing coffee Cheapest place I’ve found Costco

    Love a bold tasting coffee, since purchasing a breville burr grinder By grinding the whole bean either coarse or ultra fine I can alter its flavor from mild to very bold, this is an organic dark roast and the flavor comes through, I actually use it in my Nespresso Virtuoso coffee machine and refill my own pods resulting in quite a substantial savings and being that I drink 5-10 cups per day the decaf was a gamble since I enjoy a strong black cup of joe, the dark roast decaf delivered the perfect cup, it’s not the cheapest nor the most expensive but I just recently discovered you can purchase (2) bags from Costco and save even more $$, I just picked up 4 bags, highly recommended

    Tastes great

    I mix these beans with a regular caffeinated coffee bean so I have enough caffeine to get thru the day but not so much that I am jittery.This decaf coffee has a good smell and taste on its own. I keep the beans in the original bag and reseal them between grinding which is about once every 4 or 5 days.
