The package lists this as a medium dark roast. However the coffee looks and drinks more like a medium roast. This is one of Trader Joe’s better African coffees. There’s just a touch of bitterness in the coffee. The bitterness, as well as the body, can be easily adjusted by varying the size of the grind and/or brew time. For comparison, this is the opposite end of the coffee spectrum from a Starbucks-like coffee. But the problem may be the farm the coffee came from, the New Year’s Gift Estate. Will it only be available every New Year’s?
Price, $8.99, 12 ounce bag.

I saw this and was wondering about it, another time review Brother! I took a chance and got some coffee I was disappointed with at Costco the other week, super glad to read your posts (especially on coffee) before making a regrettable purchase : )

Yeah, but I’m afraid this is going to be a limited availability item. We’ll see. Otherwise TJ Tarrazu is my everyday coffee.

Oh nice, thanks, really good to know! I’ve got a few weeks of coffee left, but I’m going to try that once I get close to running out : )
