CAMANO ISLAND COFFEE ROASTERSPapua New Guinea Whole Bean 2lb, Fresh Medium Roast, USDA Organic, Fairly Traded, Shade Grown Top 1% Arabica, Delicious Cocoa, Dried Fruit, Brown Sugar Flavor Profile

I can’t say enough good about this company and their coffee. Roasted and shipped the day I ordered here on Amazon!Well packaged, can’t get any fresher, and fresh grinding the beans and making as a pour over, was the best tasting cup of coffee I have ever had! Two thumbs up!!👍🏼👍🏼

I ordered this coffee trying to find an organic coffee that was fair trade. I was hopeful but it was a very weak flavor. Reminded me of an instant coffee. I got the medium roast so maybe I should have gotten bold but I normally ordered a medium roast with my Nespresso pods. I tried it in a stainless steel Nespresso pod twice and both times it was like brown water with little flavor.

I try to keep up with health advice from credible sources on social media (IG, YouTube). I love good coffee and drink a mug every morning. I recently learned that we need to be aware of not only pesticides but mold in coffee! After some research, I bought Camaro Island Organic Coffee (Palau New Guinea/medium roast) whole bean. It has an excellent, smooth, rich taste. My new favorite.

I enjoyed this coffee but it is very expensive. It is definitely fresh roasted which is a real plus and it is also a fair trade product, also a plus. The thing that will keep from buying more though, is the fact that the roast is actually too dark. My automatic espresso machine says not to use a dark roast coffee because the beans could be too oily. I will be trying a different medium roast going forward but for those who don't mind the dark roast and the high price, these beans are excellent, fresh roasted, and ethically sourced.

We all have our taste preferences, and mine clearly prefers this coffee. I enjoy a chocolate/toffee taste that goes down smooth and has a nice lingering flavor. I appreciate that it is organic and shade grown so that it won't poison me or the environment. I always try to buy fairly traded coffee when possible. A well-done documentary I saw years ago convinced me that the corporate coffee types typically exploit the heck out of growers in third-world coffee producing countries. I feel better about acquiring, and have no problem paying more for, coffee that results in fair compensation for those folks producing such an excellent crop. In summary, this daily go-to coffee has everything I look for. Camano Island Coffee Roasters respond to orders quickly and it never seems to take too long to receive my order.

I always buy whole bean coffee. I don't mind paying a premium, if I receive a premium product. I fell in love with coffee from Papua New Guinea many years ago. It is some of the richest tasting coffee there is, in my opinion. I have been buying different brands for years. When I compare this one to others I have tasted, this has a weaker, less rich flavor than I am looking for and like. Don't confuse rich tasting with strong. There is a difference and I am not talking about strong taste. I prefers Papua New Guinea beans roasted darker, more bold in flavor to bring out the rich flavor I want. If you prefer a more mild flavor then this is your kind of coffee. For some reason, and I am not a roasting expert, I just love rich, full flavored coffee, most Papua New Guinea I find is roasted medium not dark. I still had some Sumatra beans when I received my shipment so I add a little Sumatra to the Papua New Guinea before grinding and brewing. This adds a degree of richness and at least for me, improves the flavor. Everybody has different taste. Bear in mind this is one man's opinion. (Husband of K Cordato)

It’s a bit higher then other brands but you get what you pay for. Camano Island Coffee Roasters assists family farmers who produce the coffee to own the farms. They are not $2 a day workers that Starbucks employs.

I dont understand how it can be allowed that you can be shipped coffee that has a best by date thats nearly TWO MONTHS PAST DUE. Absolutely terrible for the amount of money the coffee costs.
