Rounton Coffee Roasters | Daybreak Blend 1kg Coffee Beans | Great Taste Award Winning 2023 | Roasted in Yorkshire | 100% Arabica Medium Roast Espresso Coffee Beans

Well what a surprise! I bought these beans based on previous reviews to try instead of the more expensive supermarket options and I must say myself and my family are absolutely delighted with how nice it is. I think I have got really lucky with this choice because it really is the prefect roast for our 'go to' every day brew. The beans were only roasted 3 months ago which I think is pretty impressive for an amazon supplier. I believe that coffee connoisseurs like their beans to have been roasted with the month but I wouldn't expect this freshness of coffee bean from Amazon. There is a significant and noticeable improvement in the taste of this bean from the more expensive supermarket options. I have very specific requirements when it comes to my coffee. I have absolutely no doubt that this bean will become a staple in my household as our day to day go to. I can't believe Amazon sells such great coffee beans and feel I have hit the jackpot straight off. Definitely worth every penny. Thank you very much to the roasters!

I’ve tried lots of options on Amazon and this is the best so far

Note: I got these beans at 5 weeks post-roast date, which is, especially for medium, on the edge of stale.However, I proceeded to explore the best way to extract their most favourable flavours.Overall, bean quality looks relatively high, fairly mediocre when we get into specialty coffee, with around 60% uniformity.I tried EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING in order to extract these to their full potential, from traditional 9 bar shots, blooming shots, slayer shots, and everything in between, using doses ranging from 18g all the way to 22.5g.Two best shots I've had are a blooming shot at 22.5g, 15 second pre-infuse, slowly ramping up to 3 bars, 30 second bloom, 10 second extraction at 6 bars for ~45g out. This offered the most body, but lacked clarity, and was biased to the more bitter chocolate end of the flavours.The second, which I found the best shot was a 10 second pre-infuse, slow ramp up to 1 bar, 7 bar shot with 18g and 38g out within 27-30 seconds. This offered a slightly lower body, but much higher clarity and balance.I found that anywhere under a 1:1.8 ratio offered a very under extracted dry-mouthing experience, and anything over 1:2.2 ratio offered a watery, biased towards bitter flavour, irrespective of dosages and parameters.Tasting notes: Praline, hazelnut, milk chocolate, stone fruits - apricot and plum, and orange zest, with lasting praline and zest notes. Very balanced coffee with a saline essence.I believe my exploration for the best cup would've been shorter lived if the beans were no more than 2 weeks post-roast date, and that's where the star gets deducted. You can't state a bean lasts up to 6 months at standard storage, maybe in the freezer immediately off roast, but nothing else.Overall, fairly good quality and price for what you get, as long as roast date is no greater than 4 weeks IMO.

Ordered (the Granary one) a few times now. Each time, roast date is 1 month prior to delivery date. Excellent chocolate smooth flavour, as it says on the pack. May not be as rich as in fancy coffee shops but significantly better than other Amazon / supermarket beans we have tried.

Excellent coffee , great value, taste delicious , it’s hard to find Fazenda Pinhal Brazil finally I found it please do not stop making this one. Granary blend , chocolate, hazelnut, caramel . Highly recommend

I usually enjoy these coffee beans, but I was a bit disappointed to receive a batch roasted in November 2024, arriving in February. Freshness is key to the best flavor, so I’d appreciate beans roasted within a month next time. Looking forward to enjoying your excellent coffee at its peak. Thank you!

Really nice coffee smooth and tasty but I paid £23.50 on the 30th march and now it is £31.50 that is daylight robbery so they will not see me again lol.

Good item
