    Great Flavor and Reasonable Price

    Amazing cold brew. I have made my own cold brew using many different brands of grounds and this one taste the best. Truly coarse ground and doesn’t take bitter (flavor reminds me of high end coffee from shop like birch in NYC). Price is reasonable. This will be my go to for a long time.

    Best cold brew ground coffee hands down

    I've tried seven different ground cold brew brands and haven't reordered any, but I will be reordering this one. San Francisco Bay Coffee is by far the best in terms of taste, quality, and value.

    Makes amazing cold brew

    I was grinding my own beans to make cold brew because I could not find pre ground coffee that taste good. This coffee is great and ground perfectly.

  • P. Brueggeman Verified purchase ★★★★★

    Coarse ground as it should be for cold brew

    This is the third coffee I tried via Amazon purchase that stated on the packaging it was for cold brewing. First two were not much of a coarse grind which is what is needed for cold brew. This coffee is definitely a coarse grind, and tastes great. I’m not looking further.
