Sumatra Black Satin Roast Coffee

This is the first time trying this flavor. The first pot I made was too strong, but not bitter. It reminded me of an expresso coffee. The second pot was much better, very smooth and well balanced. Great Coffee! I have a Bunn Coffeemaker, and grind my beans close the same texture as store bought coffees. Very tasty! :o)

Very good bold coffee. Excellent coffee for the price!

They shipped it extremely fast. Came with an amazing espresso grind, and all in all very happy with product.

bold but like it sounds....smooth as Satin

We have ordered it several times - absolutely delicious

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 have not been a regular coffee drinker by any means because of the lack of good taste in coffee I had been drinking but need that "pick me up" at the start of my day to get things moving. After researching and tasting numerous coffees I can across AM and your offerings. I have found that the Black Satin to have not only a nice body to it, but a very pleasing flavor with a nice lasting effect.

My first purchase from this site was a 5-pound whole bean bag of Sumatra based on the reviews. Both my wife and I can’t understand the unanimous 5 star ratings.
This really isn’t “bold” at all…and although there is no bitter aftertaste as some have mentioned…what was so revealing to us is that there was absolutely no real before taste…that immediate sensation that all coffee lovers enjoy as the flavor passes over your tongue and the smoky warmth infiltrates your nostrils followed by mmmmmmm.
It was if brown colored water had just been sipped…so then I tried other measurements, different grinders, other filtered water, sterile clean unit and carafe…sadly nothing came close to what the other reviewers experienced.

I am not a coffee snob. Either it taste's good or it doesn't. And I usually do not buy dark roast. The The beans came in with healthy oily glow. And makes a good cup of coffee. Would I buy it again? Yes.

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.

Very good daily coffee that stays tasty every day

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) ;D
LOVE it!!

Strong and earthy with a chalky aftertaste

really like this bean. Good roast. Full flavor.

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.

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.

Have been using this for years, my favorite coffee. Smooth, great flavor!

I buy all my coffee from CoffeeAM - the beans are freshly roasted - you get a full pound - and consistently delicious.

The flavor is a deep rich taste but not bitter, It's amazing.

tasty

Family enjoyed the coffee and son wanted us to leave left over at his home. We did not, coffee returned home with us........

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.

Amazing coffee. It is rich, smooth and full of so much flavor.

Even though this coffee tasted good, we found that if we blended it with equal amounts of Organic Santo Domingo Fair Trade, we had the perfect cup of coffee.
