Review: Light Roast, Whole Flavor - I'm not really a big coffee aficionado so I can't personally attest to the flavor profile. I did not see a roast date on my package which many people commented on in their reviews. The beans were not dried and shriveled up like on other reviews. I used 2 cups of beans which wasn't even half the bag, so hopefully this bag is good for a month of use in a 1 person/1.5 cups per day household. I mostly got this as a way to stop paying for the canned harbucks coffees in the stores which are absurdly costly and take time out of my week to get. 10$/mo is a lot better than 90$ for the cans. The cold brew did not produce a black color which shocked my coworker, but the flavor was very high after a short 11 hour brew. The flavor is significant dulled after a shot of milk and vanilla. Both my taste testers thought the coffee was great. Coffee grounds are great for composting (green material) and your coffee bean grinder can also grind dried disinfected eggshells.
Review: Amazing - I'm honestly so shocked this espresso has a 3.9 rating. I think it has lot to do with the fact I'm guessing people aren't pulling the shots correctly and following the right process with espresso. This is by far the BEST espresso I've ever had outside of an actual coffee shop. I don't even go get coffee/lattes anymore I just make it at home. I always check the date obvs to make sure it's fresh, but the taste is great. It's very smooth, and smells like espresso you'd grab from your fav coffee place. And, the price is perfect for the quality. I use the Breville Barista Express machine, and this espresso has pulled the best shots. Thank you!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: why not free shipping with Prime?**
A: Hello! Currently our coffee is ineligible for Prime because we prefer to freshly roast each order so you can receive the freshest coffee possible.

**Q: This question is for the seller since the last response was over 3 years ago.  What can I expect the roast date to be if I order this today 3/8/2023?**
A: When I lived in California this was a great coffee. Had it almost everyday at work. Iced, brewed, espresso.  When I ordered it off of Amazon a few months ago. It was really bad. I'm not sure why. But the beans were bone dry, the fragrance was stale and almost bitter. Then when I grounded it, it was like saw dust and the flavor was harsh and bitter and not enjoyable as I remember it. I use purified water which is used for best results for coffee and I did the appropriate amount for the brew/ size of grind. Hope that helps, if you end up ordering it I hope it turns put better for you.

**Q: What is roast date?**
A: It was over 6 months for me. When I order directly from Intelligentsia it's usually 2 weeks at the most.

**Q: Is this the same coffee served at mon ami gabi in las vegas?**
A: No, Mon Ami Gabi has their own blend of Intelligentsia coffee.

### ⭐ Coffee is a ghost of what it was.
*by S***E on November 26, 2025*

This brand has been ruined by private equity. This roast is a ghost of what it used to be. It used to be so flavorful and one of the best roasts. I was so proud that it was from the Chicago area. Now its a dark roast whittled down to nothing. It literally tastes like nothing and this new rebranded label is awful! The old one looked so chic. I’m not sure if the roast from Amazon is different from the site itself but this is not it!
