Brown Gold 100% Costa Rica Coffee, 12-ounce bag

Local supermarket stopped carrying this brand. They only could suggest looking on line. Found it here for a greater price, but can't get it anywhere else. We tried other brands, but were just very disappointed. Bought five bags at once to get free shipping, and we go through a bag in about 2 to 3 weeks. Will definitely reorder. Never thought I was a coffee snob and probably am not. Have tried grinding beans myself, but can't get it to compare with this all Columbian brand. The company used to be owned by Tetley Tea of Boston, but now seems to be owned by a company out of Texas. Quality has stayed the same, however. Yes, it is pricier than other name brands though less so than others, but worth it for us.

Bar-none, the Brown Gold 100% Columbian is the best canned coffee anywhere. Even better than most "boutique" coffees. Purchased the (1 lb) can in the supermarket for many a long time---more than 30 years. Couldn't find it anymore in retail stores early this year; a couple of years ago--after holding out, I guess, as long as it could BG reduced the can size to 11.5 oz. So glad to find it again online. These online coffee bags are 12 oz and just as delicious. Lot's of coffee-bang for your buck.

The other reviews I've read confounded this product with other coffees from the same supplier. Brown Gold sells coffees from diverse parts of the world, and they are very different one from the other. I like the smooth, rich flavors - Columbian or Brazilian, not the harsher Arabic types. But Brown Gold does a good job of describing each product. Just make sure you order what you like!

not any more special than any of your local corner special roasts. Okay, so its from Africa! Maybe thats a bad thing, because it loses some of its freshness and quality flavor that is so hyped by my millenial self importante associates. I wasn't so impressed as I have tasted coffee the world over outside our borders.

Thye don't make this coffee anymore

I have tried varied grinds, amounts, and have adjusted brewtime and temperature trying to get the most out of this coffee. The brew was certainly earthy and had a pleasant (albeit weak) aroma but just didn't deliver for me. I hate to say it but it tasted "dank" and weak bodied at its "best" even with a finer grind and longer brew time. Larger amounts yielded a cup too bitter to choke down. I'd drink it again and be satisfied but I doubt that I will purchase it anytime soon.

This is hard to get in Washington DC area, and I got tired of lugging suitcases full of the coffee from NY and FL grocery stores on trips there. Now I have a regular monthly supply of my favorite coffee!

I've been drinking Brown Gold coffee for 52 years. It's rich, smooth, seductive flavor makes each luxurious mouthfula treasured experience. Please never change your formula.
