| The Cafe Altura French Roast is one of the best dark, rich and fragrant coffees I have ever drank. We were return customers for the French Roast and may try something else next. I would recommend to all who love deep rich coffee...If you like a weak watered down brew don't buy. |
Good, cheap, and organic.

| Got two big bags of this for about $17. Thought it might not be too good -- it was very good, smooth, and tasty :) Not at all bitter or acidic. I bought more already! Great deal great coffee. |
Good coffee & a good cause

Café Altura's Biodynamic French Roast is a rich, full-bodied coffee grown in Chiapas, Mexico. The beans are oily and fragrant, and produce an exceptionally smooth cup of coffee.
Living on a small agricultural island where many of the local farms practice varying degrees of sustained agriculture, I find it an added benefit to be able to support biodynamic farming efforts with my purchase of an excellent cup of coffee. As several of the other reviewers here have pointed out, you're not likely to find better coffee or a better value.

I was looking for a dark roast that was also organic. Amazon happened to have a great special on this coffee. I was not disappointed at all and have bought this product again, after the special expired. It's a quality coffee with a rich taste. As a bonus, it's grown the "right" way through organic/biodynamic methods. If you care about environmentally-friendly farming and/or supporting small farms, this is a product you should consider.
I use these beans with a burr grinder and a French press. The beans are very oily, as French roast ought to be. They are packaged well, but I highly recommend placing them in an airtight container after you open the bag.
The taste is phenomenal. If you like bold and dark coffees, this French roast is the way to go. The taste is very strong, but acidic. Cafe Altura also has other beans available if you're looking for a lighter roast. Overall, this is the best coffee I've purchased from Amazon. If the company has another two-for-one special, I'm going to order a ton a Cafe Altura beans! |
great tasting coffee
