It’s the perfect morning coffee.

If you love the dark and strong flavour of coffee, this is the one!! It’s my morning pickup drink and I totally swear by it, though Starbucks has even better blends.

I am pretty happy with this particular Starbucks Blend; the Sumatra which is Earthy and Herbal. When I first read "herbal" i thought, now why would I want coffee with herbal in the name, well what herbal does, I found out, is

Coffees in Sumatra are traditionally processed using a method called Giling Basah, or wet-hulling, which results in a coffee that leaves the farm with a much higher moisture content than other methods used more popularly worldwide.

The acidity in this coffee is low, but it has the herbal notes, which is described in the details on the bag of what this Indonesian coffee is as spicy, which is to balance the wet, dense, earthy richness.

I am not a "Coffee Conniseur by no means, but have learned a lot over the years, and I only enjoy this coffee with cream and sometimes with golden brown sugar or cane sugar. Cinnamon really influences the flavor's of this Sumatra coffee as well.

I will buy it again, as I like to have about 3 kinds of coffee in my house at one time, but this is not a daily coffee for me., more a desert coffee, or just a 1 to 2 cup kind of coffee. It can get boring and flat on the tongue it too many is drank.

I love this coffee but find the price a bit too high. Many other great coffees on the market that are more affordable. Good for a treat or if I have a coupon.
