Bleu Organic Dark Roast Coffee

There was limited recent reviews, so I decided to go ahead and share my thoughts. I ordered directly from La Colombe, but I decided to purchase a lb of the Bleu (now called Deep Bleu) through Amazon because the ship time was faster (still waiting for my order from the company after a week).... Bag arrived last night and I got exactly what I ordered, Bleu, Whole Bean. I was pleasantly surprised that the Best By Date is 3/31/2026! I read some reviews that they received a bag near/past the best by date, so I'm not sure if it's hit or miss and I got lucky. As for the coffee beans themselves, I tried it this morning and it was great! No bitterness or acidity. I made two espressos and I found the beans to be smooth and creamy, excellent crema. I used my KA fully auto espresso machine. I haven't tried any other drinks yet, but I imagine if the espresso came out great, so will an Americano or if you purchase ground coffee, drip will taste just as good.

This coffee is rich and smooth. Excellent flavor especially when ground to an espresso. Actually it’s my favorite coffee ; always fresh since it’s ground by me just before brewing.

La Colombe roasts great coffee, and this one is for us who prefer a more traditional darker roast than the 'third wave' roast styles mroe prevalent these days. Not sure why the Nizza is so affordable, esp. as a subscribe and save, but I hope it continues. I used to buy at Whole Foods, but they removed it from the shelves. I also used to buy a certain store brand which was a really good deal, but now costs as much or more than the Nizza and tastes burned. This is now my go-to. I also order their decaf from them online.

I really enjoyed the La Colombe Nizza Medium Roast Whole Bean Coffee. As soon as I opened the bag, the aroma was incredible and immediately made me look forward to brewing a cup. The beans themselves were not greasy, which I really appreciated. This made for a smooth, consistent grind in my machine and felt like a good indicator of quality. As for the taste, it was very enjoyable. While it wasn’t quite as strong or robust as the coffee I usually prefer, it still delivered a solid, well-balanced, and delicious cup that I would happily drink again.

I was served a very good cup of coffee in a NYC restaurant so I asked the waiter what it was. It was La Colombe so I ordered some. First, the price is great for 1.5 lbs. Many coffee beans are more than that for 12 oz. I use a French Press and a medium coarse grind. This is easily one of my favorite beans and it won't be the last time I buy it. Give it a try.

Disgusting and poor quality. The bag I bought was not even close to being Medium Roast...Burned to a crisp by nuclear hellfire is the more appropriate way to describe this coffee. Bitter, smoked out and nowhere near as described. Total waste of money. Seriously, how did this garbage make it through Quality Control? Starbucks can do better than this and they're terrible!

I just tried this coffee. Yum! It’s really quite tasty with a good amount of caffeine and smooth taste.

This has been my go to for home cold brew for years now. About 3 months ago I got a 5lb bag (like I always do) and it tasted different. Like the roast was off. Just assumed maybe a bad batch. Got my last bag and something is definitely different. Not the same roast/bean as I have been getting for years. $160 wasted. Not buying it again. Switching brands.
