Counter Culture Coffee Fast Forward - Light Roast, Organic, Sustainably Farmed, Kosher, Whole Bean Coffee, 12 oz (1 Bag)

Great coffee!!!!!

Favorite coffee flavor from our favorite roaster

The overall experience with counter culture was great. My coffee shipped when it said it would and got here the earlier of the two possible days listed. Both bags were stamped with a roasted-on date about 5 days prior to their arrival. So, about as long as it took to roast, bag, box and ship it to my door. I don't think it could be any fresher than that without visiting a roastery in person. I do want to note that my order shipped directly from CC and not from Amazon, which is not the case with all variates offered on the amazon. Just something to keep in mind for freshness. Also, the coffee variety used in the blend is also stamped on the bags.I do want to preference this by saying that the roast on both of these is likely lighter than a lot of people are going to be used to if they do not already drink specialty coffee.Of the two "Big Trouble" is my favorite, by a lot too. That surprised me because I tend to prefer darker roasts. I would say this roast, in my experience, is on the lighter side of medium. In a v60 it makes a well-rounded cup that is balanced between body and acid. So, it tastes modern with a hint of nostalgia. This is the cup of coffee I wish I could get served in every local diner. It could easily become my daily driver, so to speak. These flavors remain the same in the Aeropress but are slightly muted.As for "Fourty-Six" it is a bit different. Smokey and fuller in taste, which I like, but there is slight floral aftertaste which isn't my preference. Don't get me wrong, it is a good cup of coffee, but it misses the mark for me personally. I'd definitely recommend it to others who like that sort of taste. While listed as a dark roast I'd say it is on the side of medium-dark. It has the characteristics of a dark roast in flavor, though.For reference I use a Timemore C2 as my grinder and a V60 using the 4:6 method for my daily cup. I find that I like 18 clicks. I'd say this is closer to medium than a medium-fine grind.Anyway, I'll be trying more varieties.

The coffee is great, but I took a star off because Amazon shipped me a bag that was 3+ months old.

Fresh with great flavor

Rather than hope Whole Foods has it in stock and it's on sale, I buy mine here and get it for the sale price every time. Not a bad set up.

Tastes great.

I have ordered in the past and the beans tasted good. However, this time the beans were not as robust as the last bag I received, leaving a lack of richness and robust flavor missing from my morning cup of Joe.
