Is this coffee pre-ground?

No. It is whole bean, so you need a grinder. Grind just before brewing for the best flavor.

What does it taste like?

A smooth medium roast with toasted almond, cane sugar and caramel notes and a silky body. No flavorings are added.

Is it certified organic and Fair Trade?

Yes. It carries USDA Organic and Fair Trade certification and is 100% Arabica from Colombia.

How should I brew it?

Drip, pour-over and French press all work well at a medium grind. Use water just off the boil and about 1 to 2 tablespoons per cup.

How should I store it?

Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dark place and use it within a few weeks of opening. Freezing whole beans in an airtight container also works.

Is it good black or with milk?

Both. The low bitterness and caramel sweetness hold up black, and the body carries milk without turning sour.

Our take on the Colombia Organic Whole Bean Coffee Medium Roast, 12 oz

This is a 12 oz bag of single-origin Colombian Arabica, medium roasted and sold as whole bean. It is USDA organic and Fair Trade certified, with no added flavorings; the toasted almond, cane sugar and caramel notes come from the bean and roast. It suits drip, pour-over and French press drinkers who want a smooth, balanced everyday cup rather than a dark, smoky roast. Against supermarket medium roasts it stands out on certification and traceable origin, while specialty single-origin Colombians offer more distinct lot character at a higher price.
