This is a solid coffee, I usually use drip. I wish they would bring back the other Ethiopian bean that was even better than this (had it couple years ago in chicago).
I love this yummy coffee!!! I am a huge Big Shoulders fan! Coffee in Az doesn’t compare!!!!
I love coconut & I love coffee so giving this specialty coffee a chance was easy. I enjoy this unusual blend black with a little sweetener or with a little cream & sweetener. Hot is good, but cold really does evoke the tropics or the beach.
Love these beans. I ordered this for espresso as I gravitate toward light roasts for my pour over. I'm consistently getting incredible, balanced shots and I imagine it would be great with french press as well. Will be giving that a try as soon as I can convince myself to pass on an espresso.
This is one of the 3 that I had sampled. The other 2 were manos-something and ethophia-something, both of which are no longer in circulation. Luckily, out of the 3, this 1848 is my favorite. I like dark, bold and heavy roast brews and this fits the bill. It's lighter than Porter (which is also my favorite) but still firm bodied. Glad it's still available.
No surprise, Big Shoulders Coffee you delivered once again a consistent roast that promotes the qualities of a high quality coffee bean. Thank you!
Great coffee, one of the best I have in a long time.
It was a great taste; a very nice coffee could drink it all the time the price is a little high in price to keep ordering.
My daughter recommended that I try Night Shift. My regular coffee is a Colombian. I found Night Shift to be a great pick me up! It just has a bold taste that is perfect for starting my day. Some mornings I want to ease into the day others I want a jumpstart. Night Shift is a jumpstart! I give it a big thumbs up.
Found this coffee because it was served at a restaurant I frequent (Wild Fire in Eden Prairie, MN) and decided to order it. Manos de Mujer is the most delicious coffee I have ever had, and I love that buying it supports women in Colombia's conflict-torn regions. The online order and deliver service of Big Shoulders Coffee was great as well.
A very nice delicate but distinctive flavor. I like to use it as a break from dark roasts like 1848 and Bold Slugger. Makes a lovely morning cup.
This is my favorite espresso. It’s roasted just the right amount. I like the chocolatey notes. Super well balanced, it’s my daily go-to.
My daughter gifted me a lb. of Colombia Manos de Mujer medium roast for my birthday, and a friend gifted me a small hand crank burr grinder. I sometimes think it’s a pain to get through a pot’s worth of hand grinding coffee beans, but every time I drink a cup of that freshly brewed coffee I remember why it is worth it. I love to see that fresh hand burr-ground coffee blooming. It’s a beautiful sight. The two together make for heaven in a cup. What my daughter hooked me with, part of the reason she gifted me YOUR coffee, is that it comes from 100% women run and owned farms, AND is organic, two things I have strongly supported and taught my daughters to also. Good taste drunk in easy righteous support of causes I believe in, start my mornings off every day. How could a morning get any better? I really like putting my money where my mouth is, especially when my mouth get’s such a treat taking my first sip. Thank you!
I buy this in the 5lb bag and it is truly the best everyday coffee. Dark and smooth and very drinkable!
This Bold Slugger roast is smoother than Civet coffee, I swear. I drink 3/4 cup of coffee (throwing out a 1/4 cup each day) for over 20 years! Acidity/bitterness prevents me from finishing. I gleefully finish the last drop now every morning. Because of this I can enjoy a second (pour over) cup in the afternoon and not be affected by the acid! I cannot wait to try the others in my sampler!
