100% Arabica Gourmet Organic Espresso Coffee Whole Beans Medium Dark Roast - Fair Trade Johnny Gurkha Blend (500g)

This is my new go to morning brew! Organic, no mouth buzzy feeling like I get from other growers.Really happy to support the growers of Nepal, an amazing tasting bean

I ran out of beans yesterday so I ordered 500g of these via Amazon Prime. They've just arrived. Initial reactions: on opening the bag I did not detect much aroma—but I have had a cold, so maybe my nose is to blame; the beans look fabulously fat, glossy and dark. I grind by hand, so I decanted a fistful of beans into my grinder. As soon as I began grinding I noticed they sound oily; they feel oily too, making it a very easy grind. The machine has warmed up, so tamp, tamp, insert, 'gggggggggrrr!'It looks good in the cup: thick crema… now the taste test: certainly nutty, not bitter, but a bit weak and watery. Hmm. I think the problem is me: I made too big-an espresso. My machine doesn't switch off automatically, so that drink was somewhere between a single and a double. Next time I'll put a bit more grounds in. My hand's shaking now, so it's certainly working! Conclusion: no bitterness, good crema, the shakes; a very drinkable espresso!

Great credentials, snazzy name, attractive beans with a promising aroma, what's not to like? The flavour :( Where's the "Gourmet" taste? Perhaps they mean only a few people will find anything to praise this product for?Checked the use-by - "Mar 019".I suggest trying the small pack (which wasn't available when i ordered) and see if you like it.

Lovely coffee. Good strong nutty flavour. Do you do any other Nepalese coffee?

Very good coffee, good seller too!

Good coffee, not as rich as I had expected.

Excellent! I bought the beans for my dad to use in his machine and he loves the coffee - lovely and strong, and reminds him of his trip to Nepal. A great find! Prompt delivery. My friend tried Jalpa Gold, also from this company, and was equally impressed. Will buy again.
