The best value in coffee so far
By M. Trask
I learned to drink coffee in the Navy, so it was a long time before I learned that it didn't have to taste like battery acid, or have similar gastronomic effects.I started with Pete's and Seattle's Best, graduated upward to some excellent local roasters, and then after moving out to The Boonies, tried about every organic coffee on Amazon. Medium, dark, espresso, french roast, Italian roast, from nearly every corner of the globe; you name it, we tried it.Then I stumbled upon the Bean Company, which attracted me initially because it is located close to home. Think global, invest local, I say. We tried several of their roasts, and this one wins hands down. We use a Capresso burr grinder and a Saeco espresso maker, extra fine grind, compressed 40 pounds, and about a 25-second draw. Pure bliss. Perfect balance, perfect roast. Dark, yes, but never burnt. The French roast makes a better espresso than their espresso beans do, at least with our setup.Can you get better coffee. Yes. Definitely, but not for anywhere near the same price. I had a shot of espresso at Stumptown's in Portland last year that sent me out of this world, but so did the sticker shock. The Bean Coffee Co. french roast, on the other hand, is so cheap and so good that nothing comes close in value. You could spend 3-4 times as much, and not be as good.We've gone through about 30 pounds so far, with amazing consistency, and I bet we go through hundreds more.

Dark Espresso
By Cody A. Conway
The bean quality and roast quality of this bean is a step above the average bean at this price point, but the darkness was a little more than expected. There seems to be a lot of ambiguity when buying a French Roast, so much that it's hard to gauge it's true meaning of darkness. This bean falls more into the category of an Italian Roast, being truly darker than the majority of French Roast's that I have tried in the past, mind you this is labeled as a "Dark French Roast".Remember, there is no such thing as an Espresso Roast, just blends. This bean does a great job at producing a quality / smooth espresso pull every time so far. You do need to grind it a lot finer than you would a mild bean, and don't expect the caffeine quality to be high (Darker the bean, the lower the caffeine). I pull a 28 second shots on a Gaggia Classic using a Virtuosa Percisio Grinder at setting 9k, and tamping with a Rattleware 58mm Tamper with roughly 30 lbs of applied pressure to the puck. The taste as said is smooth, but only for those who enjoy a strong, very bold, espresso drink. Makes wonderful Machiottos and Dupio Espresso though, be watching for a shot of the beans shortly.

A wonderful French Roast
By Evelyn Getchell
I have become a bit of a French Roast snob, tasting as many as I can in search of THE one which pleases my palate best. So far The Bean Coffee Company, Le Bean (Dark French Roast) Organic Whole Bean Coffee, 5-Pound Bags is that very best one.I prefer organically grown coffee and this is 100% organically grown Arabica beans. The fresh flavor has great depth and is rich and smooth. The beans are beautiful ~ dark and glistening! The aroma is heavenly. The beans are low acid and antioxidant rich. This is truly a coffee of exceptional quality!The Bean Coffee Company, Le Bean (Dark French Roast) Organic Whole Bean Coffee, 5-Pound Bags is also an exceptional value at Amazon. The price per pound with Amazon's Subscribe and Save program is better than the price per pound of organic French Roast coffees I have purchased elsewhere and the quality of this coffee is much better.I'm very happy to have found this wonderful organic French Roast coffee!
