Cherry Storm - No. 17 Blend - Coffee Beans - 1kg - 100% Arabica

Well with the recent international craziness, supply issues, price rises etc, I lost my usual choice of bean which was Taylors Praline Especial Brazil beans. It sold out and was generally unavailable since the end of last year. I was able to get hold of a couple of bags of ground, but this was for a cafetière so had to regrind in a hand grinder for a good brew in my coffee machine. Thought I was going to have to do this for a while, but then the ground coffee disappeared as well and left me with no alternatives.I tried a few others and they were a bit "meh". So I went on a good old fashion internet binge and hunt down for some decent alternative beans. I didn't really understand that much about the difference s in coffee to start with, I just knew I had found one I liked in the Taylors brand. Soon enough I had narrowed it down to predominantly Brazilian beans for the chocolatey taste. but what strength??? I don't like weak coffee.I initially started with the Cherry Storm Dark Edition, and this was - by far - way better than anything I had tried to date. It had a little bit of bitterness to it that I really liked. You can tell the beans are roasted a little longer than usual and i like that. I was about to bin the Taylors off my subscribe and save subscription when I noticed there was another Cherry Storm alternative (for some reason didn't come up in my research before). This is still the same bean I believe but a little less roasted. Well before committing my life to another brand I though I would give it a try and wow.Every bit as good as the Dark edition but with that ever-so slightly mellowed tweak. It is delicious. Full disclaimer, I always have my coffee with just the tiniest splash of cream to make those chocolatey tones pop on my tastebuds. I am now converted and this is my subscribe and save replacement for Taylors.I get that coffee is a very personal thing, and it's always such a shame that they come in big bags so no real triy-before-you-buy options, but I finished of the Dark Edition and now order this version by the Kilo!

A lovely coffee, smooth and silky. Great for the morning cup.

Great value for money

Bought for my sister, she really enjoys and has bought it multiple times since

There's much better beans on here for the same price.Not a good flavour, tastes more bitter and stale and is a medium-dark roasted bean. Difficult to tell the roast date as it only has a best before date but from the extraction I'm guessing about 5/6 weeks old

Really enjoying this cofee, its the right strength for us, bit goldilocks, not to strong and not to weak, but just right.This is my 3rd pack of the Cherry Storm, no difference between packs which is great. I have been through many other brands of coffee and for me this offers great value for money with exceptional flavour.

This coffee is one of the better ones I have order from amazon, a good all round bean. Good flavour, would recommend to purchase.

Hey I'm not some sort of super qualified coffee lover. To my modest perception the coffees are either Ok or Not-Ok. This one is Ok, which is the highest praise a coffee can get from me :)
