I love coffee, i have tried so many in the past and happened upon the cafe altura. Now, every other coffee out there is just so-so. I occasionally give another recommended brand a chance but it never comes close to this one.
When you open the bag the quality is clear: The smell is intoxicating – not fake like flavored coffees and not ‘burnt’ like starbucks, but rich full COFFEE flavor. Also, the beans are visually oily, not wet or nasty as i have heard of some coffees in the past but just shiny with the oil (where all the flavor is)
Because of the quality of this coffee i use less, the taste will tempt you to take it black, and its organic from an ecologically-minded farmer….sweet!

I tried several varieties before committing to the subscribe program and this one edged out my second favorite, the French Roast. Every batch is as good as the first and I am very happy with it.
I’m also delighted with Amazon’s subscriber program, especially since I rely on others to shop for me and this is just one more thing that I can get for myself, on my own timetable, and not have to wait until they are ready to go. Thanks Amazon! Please continue to add more quality items to your grocery service.

Really an outstanding coffee. Consistently good flavor from bag to bag. We have been enjoying this for over a year and have not been disappointed with the Sumatran Dark. The roast is optimal — luscious and aromatic, like espresso, not over-roasted and burnt. Love the fact that it is organic and fair-trade also. The value is excellent, especially with Subscribe & Save.
I can’t say the same of other varieties of Altura that I’ve tried; I’ve only been really pleased with the Sumatran, not others. Also, this coffee blows away competing (and much more expensive) offerings from Jeremiah’s and Appassionato which lacked freshness and full flavor.
Truly a quality buy! Full 5 Stars – Highly recommend!

I’ve been using this bean for the past year when making my own dark whole bean blend. It has a rich, warm taste and never a hint of over roasting. It is great by itself as well, but when blended with other beans it allows me to create a complex flavor. The price is reasonable as well.

I have long enjoyed Cafe Altura’s dark roast coffees. They have a rich, bold flavor and the actual beans smell freshly roasted. Also, it is nice to have a fair-traded, organic coffee at this price.
Highly recommended
