The Exotic Bean

Reviews

Never been a fan of Decaf but due to my Dr’s advice I had to make the switch. I have tried 20+ different decaf’s & they all have the same watered down taste, then a friend of mine recommended this companies decaf. Well my search is over, I’ve finally found a decaf that tastes like real coffee. An added benefit is that they use the Swiss Water decaf method, if you don’t know what this is due some research you will understand how important this is. I now use their discounted subscribe plan to get an even better price on a fantastic coffee.

This is certainly my favorite – I get it every 4 weeks on a subscription and I never tire of the taste. It’s a great combination of flavors and aroma. It’s spoiled me for other local coffees here in the S.F. Bay Area – I appreciate the lack of bitterness and the lovely complexity. The tastes linger after drinking. A lovely aroma, as well.

The Peaberry coffees are the best, they have such an amazing aroma & smooth full bodied flavor. Highly, highly recommend.

As far as I know, this is the best decaf coffee available in the US. Dark and rich in flavor and no jitters. What else could one want? Keep up the excellent work, guys and girls…

I met Mike at the Farmer’s Market in Sykesville, MD. Super passionate guy about his coffee; he put the Thailand Peaberry in my hands and guaranteed that it was the best coffee I would ever drink and he was absolutely right. I don’t know how to go back to anything else now. When you think of coffee; aroma, taste, body, smoothness, richness – the Peaberry is what I want every single time.

Been waiting for this coffee’s arrival for quite some time, it’s finally here….it was well worth the wait. This coffee not only makes a smooth full-bodied cup it is right up there with the Thai Peaberry and that’s saying a lot. This Laos Peaberry has a taste profile similar to but much better than Hawaiian Kona at 1/4th cost. Highly recommend!!!!!

What else can be said about this coffee other than it is smooth, full bodied with a full array of delicious flavors. My search for the holy grail of coffees is over, nothing comes close. Do yourself a favor, try this coffee, you will not regret it.

Not really an espresso drinker but my friend kept raving about this coffee so I bought it just to shut him up. I should have known better considering he is a coffee connoisseur. I’ve now made this coffee as a drip, cold brew & French press, all were outstanding. Not too dark, not too light just a perfect blend for a fantastic cup of coffee. No I have to hear my friend say “I told you so”.

Being a dark roast enthusiast, I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about coffee. Prior to trying this out I was fervid fan of Death Wish coffee, well no longer. Most dark roast coffees are bitter and acidic which I thought that was common for dark roasts, until now that is. I knew I was in for a treat as soon as I opened the bag, the smell was heavenly. This bean not only has the full-bodied dark taste I was looking for, but it did so with a smooth clean finish. Highly recommend!!!!

Being a creature of habit, I rarely ever change from my normal tried and true, especially with my morning coffee. A friend of mine gave a pound of this coffee to me as a gift. Once I opened the bag and the wonderful scent hit me I knew I was in for something special. Most medium roasts are either too dark or too light, this one was perfect. The true test was going to be brewing it. The first cup was an eye-opening experience. I figured I would drink it for a few days then switch back to my old coffee. When I do so I realized how superior of a cup this bean made. I’m sold now, even started a subscription in order to save some money.
