The beans are medium brown in color with the oil just starting to sweat from the beans. There’s a nice aroma coming from the ground beans. This is a solid medium roast coffee.
There were plenty of CO2 bubbles when brewed, indicating a recent roast. The aroma in the cup is mild. As a medium roast, there’s a milder coffee flavor to go along with the mild aroma. For the first few days I noticed a slight secondary flavor in the coffee beyond a coffee flavor. After a few days, either I became accustomed to the secondary flavor or it dissipated from the beans. In either case, it didn’t break the coffee. In fact after a few weeks drinking this, I sort of missed it when I switched back to my everyday coffee. The milder medium roast coffee flavor was a good break from my normal darker roast.
The coffee is labeled Fair Trade Certified and USDA Organic. At a savings of a couple of dollars, or more, over similar quality coffee, this is a bargain for a good cup of coffee. Price $4.79

Best coffee ever for me. Aldi’s in Lawrence, KS has not carried it lately so how can I buy some? Like to buy 4 bags.

The best thing to do would be, speak with your local store manager and see what the problem is. Or, write directly to ALDI at, https://www.aldi.us/en/contact-us/

This is my go to thrift bag of coffee (sometimes the HOnduras brand too) when the Costco one is running out). Not as dark as usually accustomed to, but it’s a nice switch at a great price!
