Amazon Fresh, Rwanda Ground Coffee, Light Roast, 12 Oz

Price. This is rather alright for a cheap light roast, no burnt flavor, its not gonna come near specialty, but if you want something serviceable that doesn't need a pound of sugar and a gallon of milk to "fix" choose this.

This is a better coffee than i expected it to be. It's finely ground and works great in three different machines. The overall flavor is a hint of fruity, light and smokey, but there's no bitterness at all. I'll buy this again for sure.

I bought three bags of this coffee, and two of them arrived with slight tears which resulted in coffee grounds inside of the shipping box. The tears were small, so after brewing a pot to determine whether the coffee was still fresh (it was, see below), I removed the rest of the coffee from the two torn bags and vacuum-sealed their contents.The coffee was excellent...great aroma, well-balanced acidity, no bitterness (hooray!), and a long aftertaste. Highly recommended if you prefer lighter roasts. And unlike the Amazon Columbian coffee that's labeled as medium roast but in reality is closer to dark, this coffee is indeed a light roast.I noticed in the reviews that others have also complained about torn bags. I actually wonder whether the packaging robots are the cause, versus the bags themselves being substandard. Either way, I hope the issue gets fixed before I place another order.

The coffee is quite good! It deserves 5 stars. However, I am confident saying that at least 2 out of 5 of bags I have gotten like this are sealed incorrectly so that the bag tears first thing! Maybe the employees need a vision plan? Maybe ya'll need a special "inservice" on kinda "low technology" (such as actually looking...). The seal needs to be right. I am 70 and believe it or not, I once did this sort of job for a company called Allegro Coffee (Whole Foods owns them now I think...). Anyway, I don't remember it being so difficult, but one did need to pay attention. Sorry for the somewhat poor review of a fundamentally wonderful product, however; these quite frequent torn bags are a pain in the...!

Come, sit with me a moment and allow me to tell the tale of Rwanda Light Roast.I opened the bag and the smell was reminiscent of death himself riding across the river Styx in a rotting canoe. I placed roughly 7-8 tablespoons of the coffee grounds into the filter, and 25 ounces of thirst quenching water into the reservoir of my beloved machine. When it was done brewing it was so dark I couldn't see through it at all, even while I held the decanter up to bright light.I think my reaction in my video sums up the finished smell quite accurately....I then added SIX to-go packets of coffeemate powdered creamer to 10 ounces of the coffee and it still looked like a dark roast, so I added two more. As I write this, I have taken 2 sips and it's still just sitting there, haunting me. What it lacks in citrus notes it more than makes up for with pure bitterness that I'm not sure will ever go away... and this is coming from someone who adores bitter greens in salad, and in my younger days straight espresso.It saddens me to say we have reached the end of the tale. May it forever remain in your heart of hearts and keep you up at night, because that is what coffee is for.Seriously, don't buy this product. It is really REALLY bad.

This is REALLY good coffee! I HIGHLY recommend! It's puinching WAY above it's price point!!!!!

I like the Kenya coffee from allegro better but this is pretty nice. Flavorful, medium body, and even though they're pre-ground they don't taste spoiled or flat. I have no reason to dock this any stars since it exceeds typical coffee freshness and flavor even though it isn't my favorite. Realistically, I'll be ordering it again if I get in the mood for it. So, it's that good.

The Rwanda, Light Roast ground coffee is my favorite Amazon Fresh coffee. While I love adding flavor after brewing, the light roast is great on its own!
