Stumptown Coffee Roasters Whole Bean Coffee, Homestead Blend, 12 Ounce. Direct Trade Medium Roast, Milk Chocolate, Cherry and Orange notes, Perfect for Drip, Espresso or French Press Brewing

My favorite coffee from one of the best roasters out there. Sweet and complex, it is a good all-day drinking coffee that, if kept warm, retains its flavor. I really appreciate the unique notes, which it says are apple jam, toffee, and chocolate. I'm not sure my palate is that refined to say I taste all those things exactly, but there is definitely a smooth, subtle sweetness that is bright with no acidity or aftertaste. Comes out perfect every time with the pour-over method; have not tried drip or other methods.

The coffee beans were delivered promptly accordingly to delivery schedule. The taste of the flavour of CITRUS & DARK CHOCOLATE is very pleasant. I like it.

Our favorite coffee ever! Our guests all want to know “what is this coffee?!” It’s not acidic and the flavor is perfect roasted, smooth, and delicious. I buy 2-3 bags per month.

EDIIT—I tired the Holler blend and much prefer the Mountain Blend! I hVe it on subscribe and save and will be upping the delivery timeline! It’s great? First, I wish Stumptown would train other companies on how to package (specifically vacuum-seal) coffee beans! I think I’ve ordered a total of at least ten different brands from Amazon over the years and this is the first that’s been packaged well and sealed tightly to keep them fresh! I ordered the Homestead blend. It’s a good stout medium blend; maybe slightly bitter but that’s easy to counter if it’s an issue for you. The reviews I read had me a little concerned at firstly but I’m glad I took the chance on this brand, One review mentioned they can’t taste the flavor profile and while that’s true for the Homestead too, in my experience you don’t always have to in order for it to be good coffee. I play around with my own spice blends in coffee and don’t always taste the exact spice, but it still flavors it differently. I think that’s what this (at least the Homestead blend) is doing. Homestead is a milk chocolate and candy blend, which honestly I don’t think I’d like to taste in my coffee, but the coffee just tastes well-rounded and bold for a medium blend. I also wonder if the chocolate may be where that slight bitter taste I get comes from. Several reviews also mentioned the brew and best used-by dates. Mine was brewed in late June, purchased in August, and best used by October. I purchase whole bean coffee for its freshness and it loses freshness quickly, so to me that’s a good time frame. I usually will go through a bag this size is maybe 2-3 weeks so if I received it as some did within a couple weeks of best used-by date, it would be an issue but I would hope returns would be accepted based on late dates. I’ll definitely be taking a chance and ordering this product again! (And would update review if the use-by date were an issue because I’m a firm believer in holding companies accountable for intentional or unintentional issues in business practices.) Stumptown will be my go-to coffee bean on Amazon as long as they’ve fixed their use-by date issue!

Our go to coffee. The best!
