Coffee Bean Direct Dark Sumatra Mandheling, Whole Bean Coffee, 5-Pound Bag

This is one of my very favorites. I normally drink Dark Italian Roast Espresso from Coffee Bean Direct. I've had coffees from around the world, having served 12 years with the Air Force. I became addicted to Dark Sumatra Mandheling while at the Pentagon. The restaurant in the upper food court serves a wonderfully smooth, rich Dark Sumatra.

I use cream in my coffee but this one I can drink with cream or without. It is a perfect cup every time, low acidic great aroma, great flavor. I drink about a pot daily. I tried the Italian Dark Roast Espresso and thought it was too bitter, this Coffee Bean Direct Dark Sumatra Mandheling is not bitter at all. If you like a dark roast you will not be disappointed with the Dark Sumatra Mandheling.

Coffee Bean Direct Dark Sumatra Mandheling reminds us of Fogchaser. Have purchased this before and will definitely purchase it again. It has a definite dark flavor, but is also quite smooth. I have enjoyed it in my French press as well as my moka espresso pot.

My husband likes a light roast and I prefer dark roast but we both love this one the dark Sumatra Mandheling by Coffee Bean Direct. It IS great flavour for the price point. And that was a serious commitment for someone who usually portions out less than 1/4-pound trial bags from the coffee bins in grocery stores. I've found that I generally like Sumatras, though, so took a chance on this large bag o' beans. And it was well worth it!

This is strong, full-flavored coffee, comparable to a really smooth espresso. Like a previous reviewer, I found that it takes less grounds to make a pot. Since I like my coffee bold, I ordered this instead of the regular Sumatra. Calling it "dark" is an understatement.

I actually had to scale back the grounds in my French press about 40% - this stuff will punch you in the face twice and steal your car! This turned out to be a blessing in disguise: We normally use 6-7 scoops in our 12-cup automatic at work, but with this we only need 3 or 4 at the most. This Coffee Bean Direct Dark Sumatra Mandheling, Whole Bean Coffee, 5-Pound Bag product earned 460 customer reviews and 86% are satisfied (as 26/02/2014). Highly recommend it.
