Amazon Fresh Colombia Whole Bean Coffee, Medium Roast, 12 Ounce

This coffee is packaged with very well and the beans have a really good smell. I love the smooth taste with no bitterness. I tried this for the first time from just reading the reviews. I normally drink another brand that I'm very pleased with, but this was so much more affordable I thought I would try it. I just have to continue to adjust the water cofee ratio. I'm glad I tried Amazon's brand and will try a few of their other blends of coffee beans. Im very pleased with the savings and taste of the coffee.

I bought a grind and brew coffee maker and started brewing a lot of coffee and acquiring various beans. I started with Amazon Columbian because of the really affordable price. But since have purchased a bunch of more exotic beans from far away places like Ethiopia, Brazil, Bolivia for a much higher price. I just brewed another pot of Amazon Columbian and it is better than most of the fancy stuff. I recommend this coffee highly. Don’t think you will be disappointed!

Columbian used to have that "punch" when you first open the can or bag. Not this. Kona Hawaiian coffee is still the best coffee on the planet, but you will pay 50 dollars for a bag of the 100% pure stuff. When I saw Amazon was selling its own brand of Columbian coffee, the expectations were very high. After all, this is their signature label. Honestly, I found it a little weak in flavor, and tastes like it has been sitting somewhere for a year or more. Aging coffee kills coffee. Time is not coffee's friend. Coffee experts will tell you to only brew what you are going to immediately use, because you have about a half hour after grinding whole beans and brewing them until the coffee flavor starts going over the falls in a big way. There is no difference in the ground and fresh brewed Amazon Columbian that I can taste. Yes it is Arabica. The price is not bad, Walmart sells its ground coffee in cans for about the same price, but again, I only brew Walmart coffee when all other options fail me.So, bottom line ... want to grind your own beans? Do you want a coffee brand that is the price of your local store brand? This is the coffee for you. You can brag Columbian coffee at your house to your friends.After some time has passed... and I already bought and reviewed the dark and medium Amazon roasts, I bought the Amazon medium roast whole bean DECAFFEINATED coffee. After all.. its whole beans. Has to taste great and fresh when grinding whole beans. And I needed a decaf to replace the rising price Gevalia and Tim Horton brands... which are excellent in taste, but a little pricey for a 12 ounce bag.OK. The story starts HERE for the DECAF VERSION of the whole bean coffee. A mystery is afoot, and it is this. The first couple cups / a pot or so of the decaf... had a very strange flavor. It was a black licorice tasting flavor the best that I could compare it. It was not a good thing for me... I prefer red licorice. Time passed. I ran out of my Tim Horton's and was refusing to buy it at "the other" place and Amazon apparently was temporarily out. So I turned to the decaf whole bean in my cabinet. Coffee experts say... after grinding whole beans you have about two weeks before the ground coffee starts decaying in flavor. That is why we buy WHOLE beans. For the freshness. And after roasting the beans... which has been done before any coffee gets to any retail outlets... you have a year and a half or so of freshness. A LOT of time to use one little bag. Especially if you are a coffee fiend like myself and Elon Musk. (Who also would not start his 12 hour days without his coffee ritual.)So, the coffee roasting time has a lot of grace compared to the coffee "ground" time, which is very quick and probably about two weeks after a coffee is ground to still be fresh. Anyway, I ground the three mugs worth that I consume immediately at breakfast and mixed them with my current regular caffeine coffee. Once again... Gevalia or Tim Horton are both fine to mix with the Amazon decaf. To my utter shock... this was a different coffee from the first cups I had brewed. There WAS NO licorice smell or flavor. It tasted fine. Matter of fact, the flavor of the rest of the decaf Amazon coffee so far... is a bit more robust and hardy from average. I could grow to like this.The bottom line is... I cannot account for the flavor and taste change. I will update and get back to you as this unfolds. If the bag is consistant and the next bag is consistant in flavor... I will tell you that. At this point in time... its just a simple anomaly. Could be as simple as an accidental spill at the packing plant into some beans or one bag of a spice or liquid spice commonly sold in stores for baking. So I feel bad that initially I gave the coffee two stars because of the strange flavor. Now as you can see... that has changed. I would say try it. For the money and the flavor you may prefer it. No complaints here for now.And you get to grind it fresh... the only decaf whole bean coffee I know of.

I was really impressed with this coffee. It’s strong and full-bodied without just tasting bitter. When I use the beans to make espresso, it reminds me of the coffee you get sitting in a café in Europe. It has that rich, robust flavor that stands up beautifully as espresso. For the price, this is an excellent coffee and one I would definitely buy again.

I’ve been ordering theAmazon Fresh Colombia Whole Bean Coffee Medium Roast, 32 Ozfor the past few years, and it’s become my go-to everyday coffee.The flavor is exactly what I want in a medium roast—smooth, balanced, and not too acidic or bitter. It has a nice full-bodied taste with subtle notes of cocoa and nuttiness, making it easy to drink black or with cream. It’s not overly bold, but definitely not weak either—just a solid, dependable cup every time.One thing I really appreciate is the value. The 32 oz bag lasts a while, especially if you’re brewing daily, and grinding the beans fresh makes a noticeable difference in aroma and taste.Consistency has also been good across multiple orders. The beans are usually fresh enough and work well with different brewing methods (drip, French press, etc.), which is a big plus.Overall, this isn’t some high-end specialty coffee, but that’s not what it’s trying to be. It’s a reliable, affordable, everyday coffee that delivers a smooth and enjoyable cup. I’ll definitely keep reordering.

The coffee is delicious. However, if you order the pack of 3, be aware that they constantly mess up the order and send you one packet. I love the coffee, but I think I will have to change to a more reliable order

I bought this pillow sized bag on the recommendation of a coffee snob friend. Actually on the recommendation of two coffee snob friends. I am not a coffee snob, but I like good coffee.Let me tell you this coffee is great. My wife and I usually make Dunkin’ Donuts coffee. We grind our beans. I started grinding these instead and she didn’t really notice the difference.So I can say it’s comparable to Dunkin’ Donuts beans. But I’ll also say it might even be a little tastier.

This is my first time buying these coffee beans, but I've already fallen in love with the taste. This is a very cost-effective everyday coffee bean with a very rich coffee flavor; especially when making espresso, the aroma fills the whole room.
