Blue Tokai Coffee Roasters Vienna Roast - Dark Roast | Whole Beans 1Kg | Single Origin Whole Coffee | 100% Arabica Beans | Specialty Coffee | Freshly Roasted Coffee

Loved the quality and freshness of the coffee beans, this one is truly for people who really enjoy the coffee for its taste rather than just caffeine.. it’s a nice dark roast for that excellent strong coffee.. I highly recommend it!!!

Works well with my Drip coffee machine. Has good notes and very aromatic.

As a coffee addict, it is very customary for me to constantly be on the look out for that just perfect blend, which I prefer very dark and bitter of, and so far Davidoff's Espresso 59 was the only one that I'd found as close to perfect as I could, but it being ridiculously pricey makes it entirely impossible for me, as a student who drinks 3 huge cups of black coffee each day, to buy it for Rs. 500 per 100 grams. And so, though I might taste a lot of coffees, I do in the end return to Bru instant and the occasional very acidic local South Indian blend that just tastes terrible as a black coffee.This brand was very new to me, and actually recommended by my father, who is not a coffee drinker, and so I wasn't very keen on getting an indie brand coffee I'd never heard anything of ever, but just because he mentioned it to me, I just got the darkest blend I could find. And boy am I worshiping my dad right now, because holy hell. This is literally the best blend I have ever made at home, and my moka pot has perhaps never been blessed to make such an amazing coffee ever either.This coffee is everything it promises to be, it is dark, oaky and bitter-sweet and I am wholly and entirely in love with it. The grind size is perfect for my pot, and and I've brewed it with cold water in the water chamber, which means it was heated for about a minute and a half before the extract pushed out, and even still, the coffee was not that terrible burnt bitter that moka pots are infamous for. If this coffee tastes half as good a month later (which is when I reckon I'd finish 250 gms by myself), as it does today, ie. 3 days after it was ground, then I'm subscribing to this baby for life.Yes, it is just that good.EDIT: So, I have had the Vienna Roast ordered about 3 times, and so far the quality was not compromised, so I'm definitely impressed with the consistency. And I have tried a few more brewing methods, just to find what tastes best for this particular blend.If you're using a moka pot, then I would recommend boiling the water first and filling the chamber of the pot with boiling water rather than cold water because trust me, the taste comes through. With the cold water, it takes about a minute and a half for it to boil in the chamber, and in that period the coffee will begin cooking, so the extract is a little more bitter than ideal, and loses its oaky flavor. All of this is retained if you just change the water with boiling water, and so the decoction begins to come out within 10 seconds, and since the coffee is already a dark roast, the extraction is not overdone.Another thing to remember is that it's a dark roasted coffee. Which means it loses its flavor and aroma that quickly as it decarbonates. Anything longer than 3 weeks and the coffee is not half as good and aromatic as that first week. But then again, I bought it pre-ground, so I'm sure that has something to do with the shelf life as well. But since it does last me about 20 days per packet, I'm not complaining.In the past 4 months I have tried other Indian specialty coffees (KC Roasters ultra dark roast), and Blue Tokai's other blends- KALLEDEVERAPURA PULP SUN DRIED, and the Cold Brew Blend- Medium dark roast, and still the Vienna Roast remains my favourite of all.

Perfect darkness while remaining smooth. A quality, dark coffee. Excellent and true to Vienna name's taste expectations

The coffee tasted great but for some reason the rate of coffee discharge is very low and one needs to wait noticeably longer for the machine to complete extraction. Not sure if this will impact the machine in the long run.I do not have a similar issue with pods by other brands. Maybe this needs to be looked into.

Airtight pack received from Amazon. Aroma is high and very tasteful coffee

The coffee smells great in the pouch but when sipped gives a burnt smell. Have tried in hot water only not milk. Will try some of their other products and see.

Got the Turkish grind, and it’s really tasty and finely ground. The bag is very good too and can be resealed.
