Comparing Starbucks with Green Mountain Coffee Sumatra I can not tell much difference. I will buy this brand because it is Fair Trade Certified Organic and less expensive.
It was once said that the proper analogy for this great origin is Scotch whiskeys and their peaty, slightly fruity, smoky complexity, not wines. Save the wine analogy for Costa Ricas or Kenya's. Nothing really more to say other then not all coffees work well with this system..
Cons: Unappealing Or Flat Aroma, Thin Or Watery Mouthfeel/Body, Roasted Too Light, Not Enough Flavor
This coffee has a strong and wonderful earthy flavor that packs a real punch! While it may be bitter in the extreme, (which is what I expect from an extra bold coffee) it's not unpleasant at all. It makes for a glorious way to start my day!
