Kicking Horse Coffee 454 Horse Powder Ground Coffee, 10 Ounce

Great robust dark coffee!!

Great coffee that I discovered in a Canadian supermarket several years ago and have been buying through Amazon since 2023. Horse Power is the roast I prefer among the several Kicking Horse sells.Recently bought a lot since I expect prices of Canadian goods to go up thanks to Trump’s tariff nonsense.

This coffee is by far my favorite coffee I've ever had.

When I could no longer buy my favorite bold roast coffee at the local health food store I had to find a substitute. I went on the hunt!! Like many other reviews I am a self proclaimed coffee snob. Not that I drink a lot ( I large mug or two small in the AM), but I prefer it black, with just MCT, bold, smooth and no bitterness. Read all the reviews and went with the 454 Horse Power and was very pleased. Great coffee!! Decided to try their 2 other dark roast Kiss Ass and Grisly Bear which should be arriving tomorrow. Will write review on those as well. Wanted only organic, ground, and like that it comes from Canada. The price point is also excellent. There were other organic dark roast coffees that were more expensive. That it is on Prime is a big plus!! I'll never have to run out. Will definitely buy again!!

Coffee preferences are definitely personal, but I really enjoyed this one. While it’s not my all-time favorite, it delivers exactly what it promises. The flavor is solid, and I appreciate that it’s not overpriced. Overall, a great value, and I’ll likely buy it again!

It's a great coffee. Full flavored but not overpowering.

Purchased this for my wife and she really likes it. Very smooth flavor! Will purchase again.

I’ll start off by saying coffee taste and preference is completely subjective. While down south last year I did discover Westrock Sumatra blend coffee at a hotel. Didn’t think hotel coffee would be good but boy was it heavenly. Only Amazon and Kroger seem to carry it and with no Kroger near me, I didn’t care and paid three time the amount on Amazon because it was that good. Yesterday I discovered it is not available on Amazon anymore and my heart sank. I looked forward to my mornings because of waking up to this coffee.Long story short, I went on a mission and researched and read what felt like a million reviews in order to find something that could compare. I finally settled with Kicking Horse and I was initially going to go with three sisters but because something in the description talked about sweet after tones, I opted for no because I hate when coffee has a sweet aftertaste.My Westrock coffee smelled heavenly out of the bag, filled all my senses while brewing and had a bold, smooth flavor that was savory and satisfying. So I opted for 454 horsepower because it is a dark roast and promised some of the qualities I enjoyed from Westrock coffee. Boy was I disappointed. Upon opening the bag, the aroma did nothing for me at all. While brewing, the aroma was uninspiring. It did not awaken my senses nor did it scream “this is going to be one good cup of coffee”. As far as taste goes, the aftertaste has sweet notes (ewhh…yuck). The flavor is not bold or rich at all. Tastes like McDonald’s Colombian blend coffee from the grocery store. Oh well. Unfortunately I must continue my search despite all the the research I did that led me to this brand and blend, only to be disappointed.Word of caution, if you like bold, smooth, rich tasting coffee that is satisfying and tasty, this is not the coffee for you. I honestly don’t know how this coffee gets such good reviews when it I simply mediocre at best.I only gave it 3 stars because it is edible and the expiration date is a year away. I am debating just throwing it out. But I do not have a replacement yet. Amazon please bring back the Westrock Sumatra blend!!!!!!!!! please!!!!!
