I purposely ordered online this time instead of going to a store in San Diego thinking I would get a fresh roasted bag of beans but had to wait a long, long time to receive it in the mail because it came from the state of MS. I don't know if that's Mississippi or Missouri. I thought it would be ground fresh in Seattle where I ordered it from. So it's not too fresh. Disappointed on that end. I guess you have to order the subscription coffee to be fresh. Oh well, I'll go to my corner store to get it next time. I love Pike Place Coffee!! I like the smoothness of it.
Love my verissmo machine use it daily and as my primary coffee source. The down side for me is not being able to find it at my local starbucks on a consistent basis.
