Dark, oily beans generate a wonderful flavor - hot or cold. A Dark Blend coffee lover, I drink coffee all day. Major Dickason's Blend is now my favorite, I'll need to try Peet's French Roast, House Blend and Italian Roast but I may have discovered my new favorite.
I have been a coffee drinker for a long time and discovered this blend a few years ago. It is the one go to that I always have on hand. It brews great and the flavor is top notch.
Hey, I've been getting Major Dickson's Blend at the grocery store (when I can find it) for the past couple of years. I really love it but have the impression that it's been sitting on the shelves for a few months! I got my first subscription order a couple of days ago and it's fresh and wonderful. FYI, I'm using in my 3-cup Bialetti pot, and grind the coffee for each pot by hand just before brewing. Strong, great flavor, and with no bitter or sour taste. I'll definitely try some of your other coffees sooner or later!
Been drinking this for many, many years. Last several batches have been undrinkable. Seems like cost cutting after being purchased by Keurig-Dr. Pepper is resulting in poor supply and bad roasting. Not just me. Tested it on my family over xmas. Lots of bad words. Yuck. Sad. We’ve switched.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love Peet's Major Dickason's coffee. I gave this coffee as a gift with Peet's chocolate bars and Winter Solstice Tea. I know they were all greatly appreciated and enjoyed.
