BATTLE BLUFF - ESPRESSO COFFEE BEANS

Not bad beans, but not the local replacement for Phil & Sebastien mail order beans that I was hoping for. They were more burnt than I like, and fairly oily, making consistent grind tough to achieve for me. Also, despite living in Kamloops, they took a week to be delivered. Canada Post routed them via Richmond -- not your fault, I know, but you need an easier way for locals to access them.

I don't think I'll every buy another bean for my espresso machine, I swear the lattes I make at home are better than what I get in a cafe

My friends from Kamloops had send me a couple of pounds of TG espresso and we loved it! When I discovered they had a coffee subscription I was sold. We are at least 2 cups x 2 people per day coffee drinkers so opted for the daily brew pack. So nice to have 2 espresso blends to choose from.

Hoodoo is better

I tried both the Sugar Loaf and Battle Bluff blends. I would classify both as a comfort blend. Low acidity, sweet and smooth. Very nice as an americano or great in milk. My only criticism is that there are no roast dates on the bags but this is not specific to the blend. That said, coffee was fresh as it was still emitting lots of CO2 after I received it in the mail.
