Reasonably priced light roast, organic blend
I am very happy with this premium organic blend. It has a crisp, aromatic, South or Central American taste. It is truly a light roast (it can be harder to find a genuine light roast coffee than might be supposed). To be perfectly honest, I did not order this specific coffee, Amazon decided to ship it to me either by accident or because they thought I would be happy with this slight alternative to my order. I actually ordered the single-origin Nicaraguan light roast but Amazon said it might take up to 2 months for delivery since it was not in stock. I ordered a lot of other coffee from other companies because of the delivery estimate. But surprise: this premium light roast blend arrived in about 48 hours. It tastes very similar to the Nicaraguan blend I ordered from this company previously, which I also rate at 5 Stars (it probably has a Nicaraguan component although this is not specified on the bag). I can understand how the people at the Amazon warehouse may have figured this was a good compromise and with current inflation, it would be hard to accurately price international coffee 2 months out.

Good Stuff!
Tiny Footprint Coffee Organic Signature Blend Light Roast - Whole Bean Coffee is a delicious brew. They tell of all sorts of "save the planet" efforts they make, but I like that it's roasted in Minnesota (rather than being a Chinese import). I go with USDA Organic because of the nasty things coffee is treated with otherwise. It's also a good value - around $13 per pound (up $2 since Nov. 2021), a reasonable price for organic. It's a light roast, which means more caffeine per cup and none of that "burnt" taste that comes from darker roasts. I like it and highly recommend it.

Great light brew coffee! Been subscribing to the 2 1 lb bags of beans for over 3 years!
This is a sweet, fragrant, satisfying organic light brew. Great for drip, pour over and especially cold brew. (for French press you might want to use a slightly larger amount of grounds.) If you are used to light/ medium ( hard to find true light) or medium or dark roast coffee this may not appeal to you, we don’t find it acidic (apparently medium or dark roast is supposed to be less acidic) but for us any coffee but organic light roasts tastes bitter and strong and unpalatable and upsets our tummy. Most supposed light roasts are not light and we’ve tried many different organic packaged brands, in fact they usually turn out to be dark.I would recommend getting the 2 1 lb option rather than the 3 lbs because this way it will stay fresh longer and also these come in the paper bags rather than the plastic bag.For some reason Amazon seems to be out of stock of this flavor recently, so I keep having to change my subscribe & save date as this is the item that made me subscribe in the first place! If you have any questions about this environmentally forward brand, their website has a lot of info.

Terrible product. Do not buy.
I was initially excited about this product. It is hard to find true light roast beans. These are true to the roast but that is the only positive thing I can say about these. The beans are so dried out, worse than any preground and packaged store coffee. The smell is weak. The flavor is weak. I tried to double, even triple the amount of grounds with the same flavorless result. The only taste that does exist is a strong sour taste. Not a normal acidity taste but a strong sour one. Very gross. Love the concept behind the company but the product is so bad that it is a waste of money. I'd rather donate the full amount to the cause than waste a portion going to the processing and shipping of the beans.

Mild smooth taste
This coffee is for people like me who like a light-roasted (therefore presumably high caffeine), mild, smooth coffee. Those who like dark roasts propabably will not like this because a light flavor accompanies a light roast.Related issue for those who are concerned with "Fair Trade": I misread the extensive writeup of this coffee and so I did not notice that the words "Fair Trade" are neither in the description nor on the package. So, if that is the case, then it might be that this coffee is great for reducing the carbon footprint, but might not conform to fair trading standards for the peasant growers.

Light Roast And Trees
Been buying this for the last few years. The coffee is excellent with flavorful body and the caffeine from the light roast is never overpowering but it does get you going in the morning. Add to that the fact that the trees planted remove more carbon than growing the beans produces. Great coffee and less carbon in the environment is simply all I can ask.

Bright and Clean
This blend makes a very tasty pour over. I haven't done it yet, but I bet these beans would also make a delicious cold brew. I am very interested in their other coffees.

I gone
This coffee has gone from a 4 lb bag to a 3 lb bag since I have been buying the product. I like the taste of the coffee and I like the fact that it is packaged in a plastic bag and not a metal container, however I will not be buying it again as the I have determined that it is deceptive in many ways. Printed boldly on the front of the packaging is 50. Not 50 lbs of coffee but 50 lbs of Karma. Not 5 lbs of coffee, not 48 oz. like the package says, but 36 oz. I get a bad feeling about these folks! I gone!!!!
