Grizzaffi coffee
Comparison to another brand that is hard to find in this country, which was the best coffee I’ve ever had rating that as a 10, to Keurig K cups with the best Keurig I’ve ever had rating a five. The best national coffee shop chain coffee I’ve ever had was a 6. But most of those coffees I would rate anywhere from 3 to 5.
Specially....
Mexican - 9+ superb equal to best. I would need to do a side-by-side to be able to rate it at 10. Flavorful, full bodied. Nice aroma. Great mouth feel.

Grizzaffi blend - 8 mild, decent body, mellow from start to finish. Good everyday drink.

Peru - 3 starts off great, good almost full body, the finish is just OK, maybe a slight aftertaste that lingers on the back middle of tongue. Not unpleasant, but noticeable. Maybe slightly bitter. The longer I drink it as I get to the bottom of the cup, the lingering aftertaste remains so I am going down from my initial rating of 7 to 3.

Guatemalan - 7 mellow. Smooth. No aftertaste. Not much body. Good but unexciting.

Sumatra - 8 Same as Guatemalan with a little more body.

Ethiopian - 2 beans have a pungent smell. Not a bad smell, just different, I do not know how to explain it. The ground coffee doesn’t appear to have that smell, but the brewed coffee has retained some of that smell. The coffee has a pleasant taste at first. It seems to hit all of the tastebuds on the surface of the tongue, rather than just one area. The most pronounced taste is in the back of the tongue with a lingering aftertaste. Note, this was not a bad aftertaste at first. It just lingers. I rate the first few sips a 6. Let’s see how it goes as I drink more of it. Halfway through and the taste lingers on the back and sides of my tongue. Don’t like it. Making a different blend to finish out the morning.

Costa Rica - 9+ Complex. Full body. All over taste buds. Most pronounced in the middle to back. Lingering aftertaste but it is a pleasant aftertaste. First impression is a solid 9. Lingers on the back of tongue. Very pleasant. Similar to Guatemala but with a lingering presence and more body. As I got towards the bottom of the cup and the coffee became cooler, the flavors became more intense and complex. I really like this coffee.

Columian - 8 good flavorful middle of the road coffee. Taste is similar to just about any good quality supermarket coffee, except that it is fresher and tastier. Solid choice for anyone wanting to graduate from supermarket coffee. Nothing remarkable about it except it it is very good and better than anything you’re going to get from your local supermarket and definitely better than the best coffee you’ve ever gotten out of your coffee pod machine. I guess that does make it remarkable. A solid choice.
