Pretty good coffee, and I love the 'ethical bean' concept!

I recently decided to try this brand given the background of ethically sourced beans and fair trade practices. It is on the pricier side, but a portion of the proceeds are donated to fundraising efforts in Guatemala, so it's worth the price! The taste of this particular coffee was pretty mild in nature, and to be honest, there were no 'unique' qualities. If you're looking for a way to have your caffeine while supporting a great cause, this may be a great way for you to do both! They do have additional options in their lineup. Give it a try!

Ethical Bean coffee

Ok. I never thought a bag of coffee had such a history! Ethical Bean is the coolest thing ever! There’s a QR code on the back of each bag that tells you where your coffee is from... it literally shows you on google maps and show pictures! It tells you the exact date your bean was roasted! It even gives you information of the co-op it was grown and harvested!! Ok... now to the taste.. I’m really loving it. I used my French press, the taste is bold. I used cream and sugar in mine and it rounded it out nicely... would go prefect with a piece of toast. I’m not a coffee pro but there’s a... depth to it. Very nice.

The perfect dark, rich cup - unadulterated.

I decided to try this coffee as I usually purchase organic/fair trade/shade grown coffee beans even though they are pricier. This coffee compares favorably with any of the other brands I've used. I drink mine strong and black, husband drinks his 'single/single' style. Both of us enjoyed the smooth, rich, deep flavour and it stood up well to his 'additives.' It also pairs well with a good brandy or whiskey.

We like the tenets of the company, and with Blockchain technology it would be nice to be able to trace the beans back to the source. I'm sure that will happen in the future.

Loved trying this!

I received this product as a sample and really enjoy the flavour! Its a beautiful, rich taste! A heavy Burgundian fullness, alive with fruit, smoke and earth notes.
