Koffee KultMedium Roast Coffee Beans - Whole Bean - Smooth, Balanced Flavor - Smooth and Flavorful 100% Arabica Beans 12oz Resealable Bag

I love this coffee. I've been buying it for years now. It is really close to my favorite from among local roasters but less than half the price. It's rich and warm and not bitter. The quality has been consistent. I'm not a coffee reviewer so I probably am not using the right terms but if you are on the fence, try it!

I grind and brew my own coffee daily, and am very picky about what my wife and I drink. There are no worries when it comes to Koffee Kult's Medium Roast Whole Bean. They're a local coffee maker and everything I've gotten from them has been relatively fresh, even when ordered from Amazon. While Medium Roast packs plenty of flavor, it is easy to drink with tons of coffee goodness. The aroma of the beans should be made into a perfume or cologne. There is just a hint of bitterness which can become more pronounce if it isn't brewed properly, but when it is done right this is an amazing brew. It works well black or with a touch of half and half.I only use filtered or spring water, and grind my beans right before brewing. For a full pot I also include a pinch of sea salt and a dash of Ceylon cinnamon with the grinds. That first cup wakes me right up and the aroma is fantastic. It also holds up well to staying warm throughout the morning compared to some less premium coffees. I guess that may be due to Koffee Kult only using the top 2% of premium Columbian aracbica beans. I appreciate that they are ethically and organically sourced as well so don't mind paying just a touch more. They are worth it! While the company is local, it was less expensive to get them through Amazon.~ Kort

I've tried a lot of different coffees over the years. I started out drinking the free swill at work, but quickly outgrew that and branched out into brewing my own. I purchased a basic Melita pour-over and bought some of the local store brand ground coffee. It was better, but not great, even to my unrefined palate. I then tried some of the other generic name brand ground coffee, but found that all of it got bitter within a couple days of opening it. I bought vacuum canisters, but that only extended it's life to a week.So, I did some more research and decided to jump into the whole bean arena, since they last longer. I bought a decent burr grinder and some of the bulk imported beans at the grocery store. Much better flavor, but still...not great. I've since tried beans from several local roasters (some good, but inconsistent), coffee houses around the country (I travel a bit for work), and a plethora from Amazon as well, in my pursuit of perfection. I've found it remarkably difficult to find a coffee which is low in acidity and high in flavor. There have been a few, but they were either too expensive (real Kona & Jamaican Blue), or inconsistent between batches (local).Enter Koffee Kult. Wow! This is IT! Perfection! Low acidity, great earthy flavor, and smooth! I received an email the day it shipped, with instructions with optimal brewing for a number of different methods (I now use a Hario pour-over), which I was pleasantly surprised by. I also received a follow-up email several days later from the owner, asking how I was enjoying the coffee. I'm thoroughly impressed by both the quality of the coffee and the sincerity and care that the owner has for their customers. I couldn't be happier.I will be ordering another bag when this one runs out and will post an update, if the taste changes significantly.Update: It's still great after 2 more bags!

Some might actually hate me, and I apologize to Koffee Kult before hand if I've ruined their fine blend. Without a doubt, this is a fine, fine coffee, I have drunk it on its own, black, no sugar, no milk and it's very good. However I've recently discovered, to my horror.... I'm a bean mixer. Don't hate me. Ok so regardless if it's just marketing, or that I'm a Hawaii resident but I loves me some Kona coffee, except drinking 100% Kona coffee everyday makes for some expensive coffee drinking. So just like everyone else I've been resorting to preground 10% mixes, which aren't usually that good tasting (that's why they resort to adding mac nut flavors, hazelnut flavors, vanilla flavors). Thus began my quest to roll my own Kona mix, and the first thing was to find a base coffee that I like. I'm not really a coffee aficionado, so I don't know how to describe why I prefer one coffee over another, (if you want a body, flavor, oilyiness, tastoid review others have made better reviews) but as that old saying goes: "I know it when I see (taste) it" with Koffee Kult I definitely taste it.Here is how I prepare my daily brews, I put in 4 to 5 grams of Kona beans and fill the rest with Koffee Kult beans to get 22 grams, I then grind the whole thing and in an aeropress aerobie using the upside down method; put water into the level 4 mark; let it soak for at least a minute before pressing (though more often than not it soaks for however long it takes me to complete my morning simpsons tapped out ritual). After that badaboom good cup of morning coffee. Koffee Kult on its own is very good, very good, and I do occasionally drink it on its own, however adding that little bit of Kona makes it... well it makes me feel like I'm not drinking (the excreting) gold every morning while still enjoying a very, very good cup of coffee.Koffee Kult's customer service is great, before I had even received the beans, they were already emailing me, I asked for aeropress tips they sent me a PDF with a whole bunch of different brewing methods. Note though, they send (and I'm paraphrasing/summarizing) a "thanks for the order email," a "hope you received it" email, a "if you've had a chance to try it please review it" email etc. Though unlike other vendors, who ask you to give a 5 star rating all they asked for was a review, and I'm quite happy to do that (see length of this one as proof), however if you don't like that amount of touchy feelyness, it could seem spammy. Now I'll go back to enjoying my morning coffee.
