Volcanica CoffeeEthiopian Sidamo, Whole Bean, Fresh Roasted, 16-ounces

After using K-cups for years, I got to thinking about how much easier it would be to make one pot of coffee in the morning and sharing it. So, I read an article on the best tasting coffees around the world. The man who wrote it had all these "coffee preparations" that I thought, wow, I just carried a plastic pour over and some filters when I traveled for a living, this guy was SERIOUS about his coffee. So, I ordered the coffee and resurrected the coffee grinder from its storage shelf! I was shocked at the aroma of the beans as they were being ground. I put the pot on and went to my bedroom on the other end of the house, I noticed that I could smell the coffee brewing all the way at the other end of my house! The directions state do not leave it on a warmer more than 20 minutes, so I sat a timer and believe me I poured a second cup when I went back. This coffee is smooth, velvety and tasted better than I remembered when I used to work from home and traveled all over the United States for my job. If there is one thing that I hated about traveling, it was the hot brown water that hotels call coffee, I would bring my own to breakfast in the mornings.If you like a coffee that is never bitter, very smooth, and even tastes good cold, this is the one for you!Enjoy it! You will come back and thank me!

So being out of coffee I was trying to figure out what to buy next.I'm an organic consumer.How in the world do you decide? All the brands make my head spin.So I looked up where coffee originated.Seems God planted it in Ethiopia.Now what brand....Volcanica claims some Ethiopian beans are harvested from wild plants, some from heirloom plants.That sold me.I couldn't wait for my coffee to arrive.While I'm not a coffee expert, I do know a good cup from instant or gas station coffee. Yuck.The smell was so good when I opened the package, I couldn't wait to grind it.I certainly needed to relax with a beautiful blissful cup of coffee.Lean back and imagine workers picking the beans, washing and drying themfor our benifit and enjoyment made this cup all the more special.Bless everyone who worked to bring this special coffee to my doorstep. I appreciate all of you.

ChatGPT wrote the other review very dry does not have a rich aroma need to be especially ground fine to extract flavor one would expect from a custom coffee:

Flat, not what I expected.
