This coffee is fantastic. Great, bold flavor with very oily beans. This is the first Altura coffee I have tried, but I will definitely be going back and trying the different types of beans they offer. Can’t go wrong with the Peruvian dark.

This coffee is one of my favorites especially when the bag is freshly opened; however, it takes a while to go through two pounds of coffee. It looses some of the flavor over time, but regardless it remains pretty darn good. I just wish I could find a way to keep it really fresh. I have tried freezing it in an airtight zip-lock bag, refrigerating in an airtight zip-lock bag, and storing at room temp in an ceramic airtight jar. Regardless, this coffee is a amazing (especially when brewed with a french press), and I highly recommend it.

When I first opened the bag it was almost too rich/dark… After a few days it mellowed out slightly and is one of the best beans I’ve used with my Brevelle Espresso machine.
