This Sumatran coffee is as rich in flavor as it is in history. Amazingly, this coffee was once thought to be lost to the world; it took over 100 years for this prized cultivar to be rediscovered, because it was hidden amongst the lush jungles of Sumatra. Since then, these ancient Arabica trees have been replanted near Lake Takengon in West Sumatra, which is now world-famous for its production of gourmet coffee.
Sumatra 'Black Satin' coffee is darkly roasted to produce a full and heavily bodied cup with mild, earthy undertones. Low in acidity and smooth, this dark roast coffee has a smoky aroma and a slight black pepper finish.
Coffee from this country is also available as Certified Organic or Decaf.

Nothing like it!
By Karen from Rural West Tennessee on October 27, 2012
I've been a long time customer, purchasing espresso grind in five-pound bags. The flavor is so marvelous--dark and rich. The brewing aroma itself just makes my mouth water and my brain perk up. I love being able to set up my order every 'so many' days, and, just like clockwork, I get a "Christmas gift" every few weeks! Great coffee, super company, excellent and personal customer service!!I would recommend this item to a friend.
Our everything coffee
By steven from albuquerque, nm on June 30, 2012
When we first ordered from Coffee we ordered 5 different gourmet coffees. We enjoyed excellent coffee. Then we ground and French pressed our first pot of this coffee, It is very aromatic and after a 5 minute brew we were treated to the smoothest robust dark roasted coffee, now our every day coffee. We always keep 5 pounds in the freezer so we are sure not to run out. We have converted a number of family and friends to this coffee without a word. The coffee speaks for itself with it's wonderful aroma and great smooth flavor. It is the only coffee we buy. The beans are always clean and the freshest. Try this coffee!!!I would recommend this item to a friend.

Smoothe
By Jonathan Schwarz from PA on January 26, 2012
Prior to trying this coffee, I considered myself a light-medium roast coffee drinker. This coffee is flavorful, smooth, and not the dry, over-roasted, burnt bitterness that I have come to expect from other dark roast sources. If you don't think you are a dark roast coffee drinker, try this one, you will change your mind!I would recommend this item to a friend.
Dark, Dark and Darker
By Andrew from Edison, New Jersey on January 17, 2012
They don't get any richer tasting than this Sumatra Black Satin Coffee. I try to keep my caffeine content down so I mix the Sumatra Black Satin with a "Decaf Sumatra" (a 50%-50% blend) and it STILL has the "Black Satin" taste. Yummers! The package arrived within the time frame promised and tasted just as I had hoped it would. If you like strong, rich Sumatran coffee, I recommend giving this product a try.
I am VERY happy with it and the company, CoffeeAM. They run a good, tight ship and I would heartily recommend them and their products.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Great coffee by itself or as a base for mixing
By Amanda from Redondo Beach, CA on January 13, 2012
This coffee is great. A fantastic dark roast and perfect by itself or as a base to mix 75/25 or 50/50 with your favorite flavored coffee (we do a 50/50 mix of this and Maple Bacon) ;DLOVE it!!
I would recommend this item to a friend.

Exceptional Coffee, Incredible value!
By Dave from Michigan on January 4, 2012
Sumatran coffees are not for everyone, but if you are a aficionado of the full bodied rich, deep flavor these beans can produce, treat yourself to a bag of Black Satin immediately. My order was delivered promptly and when I opened my bag to inspect the beans I was greeted with the sight and smell of a perfect rich dark roast. A beautiful oily sheen clung to each bean. Initial inspection found no Quakers, Punks or Stinkers. It was one of the cleanest bags of beans I have ever purchased. I prepared my french press with a dose of coarse grind while my water came up to temp(200F). When the water was added i got a wonderful "Bloom" from the rich, oily grounds. After a 4min. brew I depressed my strainer and poured a thick syrupy stream into my glass, the color and aroma was everything I expected from a superior product,my first taste reveled a low-acid, silky smooth feel in the mouth, with multiple layers of flavors. Exceptional is an understatement. Apart from this being an excellent coffee, that was expertly roasted , the price is on par with Starbucks mid-grade blended beans. This was my first purchase from CoffeeAM, but it will not be my last.I would recommend this item to a friend.
Very good!
By Daniel from Long Island, NY on January 3, 2012
For the price I figured I really couldn't go wrong. Boy did I hit it out of the park! Very rich, not bitter, and a great cost. Will definitely order this again. Probably will be my go to coffee.I would recommend this item to a friend.

Great dark roast, no burnt quality
By Michael from Yakima, WA on December 19, 2011
Did not like the coffee when I made it in a standard drip coffee maker as some bitterness leeched through. Coffee is best if made in the smallest amounts, anyway, and I discovered that the Sumatra Black Satin was great when made by the cup in a pour-over funnel, a Moka Express-style stovetop espresso maker, or a French press. The flavor is earthy and almost primitive and gives you a new dimension in coffee.I would recommend this item to a friend.

By Michelle from Maine on November 25, 2011
I enjoyed this coffee so much it will be a regular go to. My husband doesn't like coffee as strong as I do however he even agreed that this coffee had a wonderful finish. The coffee itself is deep in flavor with a satiny finish. I would recommend this item to a friend.
