Last batch purchased a couple of days ago in one of the Oakland, CA shops was not as good, by far -- very far -- as previous batches of the Major's coffee.
Coffee is great, shipping speed/price combination, not so great. I ordered my coffee on a Monday day and waited till the following Tuesday night for it to arrive. Needless to say, a couple of days without my morning coffee shaped this review!
Major Dickason is simply the best coffee I’ve ever had!! I first drank it when we moved to Portland, OR in 2008. We lived there for 9 years I loved being able to go into the Peet’s store and get fresh ground coffee. We live in Phoenix, AZ now and they don’t have Peet’s stores but I still order my favorite coffee.
Because it's so fresh when ordered from the website, this was better than the same thing bought from the store. I can't go back to regular coffee now because this stuff tastes so good! Hard to describe the taste, but it's not overly bitter like other kinds of coffee and has a pleasant toastiness that's so comforting.
I buy this often as well as my Kenya Auction Lot and my Guatelaman San Sebastian, all 3 I love in the morning. I know Major coffee can be bought in the supermarket but I love my coffee freshly roasted and shipped......great fresh flavor. I love tearing the bag open and smelling that intoxicating aroma. Can't wait till morning comes so I can have my Peets!
