A little over the top

I like dark coffee but this was a little too intense for me. It's more like Starbucks full city roast. I'll take a pass on this one, but for people that like an extra dark, city roast you'll like it.
Pros: Pleasing Aroma
Cons: Unbalanced Or Sharp Acidity, Too dark for me, Unpleasant Flavor
This is an exceptional bold roast with great flavor and aroma with an incredibly smooth finish! I brew this in the morning in my travel mug, add a dash of Italian Sweet Cream creamer and I'm ready to go. Just amazing!
This is the coffee version of an energy drink. It's got a great bold flavor that doesn't have a burned after taste. But, it's very strong, so don't drink it on an empty stomach. Being a night shift person, this is perfect for me.
Pros: Pleasing Roast, Not Bitter, Attractive Mouthfeel/Body
Very dark, very full flavored cup. If you like your coffee dark and boiling over with flavor, this is a great one to give a try! I would recommend this one over and over again.
"It's not for the faint of heart" is an understatement. I have always liked a good strong, dark coffee. When I first tried this intense dark roast blew me away and is the coffee I reach for first thing in the morning.
Pros: Exceptional/Interesting Flavor, Pleasing Roast, Not Bitter
I am a big fan of the dark blends (love Dark Magic by Green Mountain) but this one is not good in my opinion. I drink it black so maybe people who jack the coffee up with cream, sugar, etc...might like it but it has a burnt coffee taste and smell to it. I guess for an expresso it would be good but as a drip its just not good.
