I love this coffee. It’s smooth and bold. I also love these roasters. They are good people and I enjoy supporting good companies.
I’ve slowly dipped my toes into Yield’s different blends and this one is definitely a favorite. So smooth and the flavors come through great. This has definitely become a favorite of mine!
My daughter and I love this coffee and the values of this company. I’ve been Very pleased with the coffee, but the last two shipments I’ve received have not been up to the standard I’d been used to. 3 of my bags were not sealed properly, so not only did I loose the freshness , I also lost beans. We love this coffee, I hope they are able to remedy the sealing problems, or at least catch them before shipment
