AmazonFresh Go For The Bold Ground Coffee, Dark Roast, 12 Ounce

This coffee is great as an everyday coffee. The flavor is rather mild, but as with milder roasts tend to go, it will have more caffeine than you would normally be used to with a medium roast. Dark roasts tend to have the least caffeine. If you’re looking for an electric jolt to your day for a reasonable price, with a preference towards so-called “blonde roasts,” you will be rather satisfied with this purchase.The foil bag it comes in seems to be of good quality. I am personally always a bit weary of these kinds of bags, as the more inexpensive brands have a tendency to rip or split on you, if you apply too much pressure to them. These seem to be made out of a higher quality, thicker material that I have good confidence in. A thick twist tie-like bar is provided to fold, as you would expect; along with a very sticky piece of thick tape to prevent it from popping back up, also a standard.This morning, I have tried this light roast coffee both hot and iced. It has a rather pleasant “mouth feel,” with a smooth aftertaste. The grounds themselves have a pleasant bouquet; a pleasure to waft into your nostrils, if you are like me with a strong propensity towards wafting pleasant aromas.On the level of the bitter-to-smooth scale, this is inclined towards a milder flavor profile than that of so-called “doughnut shop” coffee. It certainly makes pleasant iced coffee, due to the overall smoothness of its strength.Is there anything in life that brings one so much pleasure as a good cup of coffee? I certainly don’t think so. Here you’ve got something of good quality, for a mostly-reasonable price. It is probably something in terms of equivalence to Eight o’Clock brand coffee. It’s not the worlds best coffee, but it is certainly better than most.

I would consider myself someone who is a "foody". I love to try new things and do a lot of wine, beer, and food tastings. So my pallet is pretty board. However; when it comes to coffee most of them taste the same to me. I drink it black all day and as a special treat I add some sugar free flavor and some cream every once in a while. I wanted to try this amazon brand coffee and I love vanilla flavor. It is finely ground but not too much that it is powder and will work well in my french press. The vanilla flavor is just enough to taste great and add extra notes but its not so overpowering. Also adding a little bit of coffee flavorings will bring this to next level sweetness. The coffee bag itself seals well and is easy to open and reuse. I don't find the caffeine amount to be so insane that it makes me sick and it seems to be just fine to keep me motivated and going in the morning. Overall good coffee but knowing that it is affordable makes it even better.

First of all I am not a coffee expert; there are some brands that I definitely do not like (some of the cheaper generics are oily or weak) and there are some I do like but can't always afford (like Eight O'Clock and Starbucks along with our local bean roasters).I thought I'd try this from Amazon because most of the Amazon brand items we have tried we've liked. The coffee was easy to order (of course, it's from Amazon!) and arrived quickly.Again, I'm not an expert (or coffee snob) but I think it is definitely better than Folger's. Folger's is alright and I will drink it but I think that AmazonFresh coffee's has a richer, deeper flavor. We finished the first bag and went back to Folgers (and a couple of other brands that were on sale at the store) but recently I ordered another bag of AmazonFresh and noticed that I definitely like it better than the typical household coffee brands.

Man! Was I tired of trying to figure out what to do with my growing collection of plastic Folgers containers! They do not store in a convenient space saving area until you have enough to make a trip to the recycle point. And for what I paid for Folgers, the flavor was barely acceptable. This is my new coffee of choice. The dark ground coffee has a beautiful life-is-good and mornings-are-tolerable flavor. And this is a good amount for the price. I empty just over 1/2 the bag into the empty last Folgers container I ever bought, and save the rest of the bag in the freezer. Then I nearly fill that canister again when ready. Well worth the price!

While I do not consider myself a coffee snob, I do go to lengths to assure myself that the coffee I make at home is better than what I can buy when out. After researching different coffee machines, learning about the proper technique I was able to accomplish this. I had a burr grinder, and SCAA certified brewer, and tried all sorts of beans until I found the right combination. Then I got divorced and put most of my belongings into storage.So in the meantime, I needed to find a less expensive alternatives to achieve my endless longing for my hot, dark, caffeinated drink. I bought a percolator which brewed coffee as well as my $200 machine. I bought coffee at Whole Foods, and some of the local grocery stores, and ground them there. Not too bad in a pinch, and besides, spending 100+ dollars on a grinder was not within my budget. At this point I was satisfied with my cuppa. And then COVID came along, and I could no longer grind my coffee. So the worst of all possible scenarios had become reality: I would need to buy ground coffee. Yikes. After trial and error, I was able to find some coffees I really enjoyed.This is one of my favorites. A rich, medium bodied cup with little bitterness and smooth on the tongue. The taste is fresh, having received a batch from the prior month. I was pleasantly surprised and signed up for a subscription.If there is one thing that I've learned, and it rings particularly true in this case is that something doesn't need to be expensive to be excellent. I have been pleased with the Amazon brand coffee offerings (including the 365 brand), and have come to trust Amazon brands across the real of food items.Part 2.Rotation control issues. Sometimes I receive the item within a month of roasting, sometimes six months. I lowered my score by 2 points.
