SOUTH SIAM ROBUSTA | Roasted Robusta Whole Coffee Beans from Thailand | Very Strong Dark Roast | High Caffeine | Great Taste | 500g

As with the country as a whole, their coffee is amazing. Nice and strong.

If you like robusta beans, this one is well worth trying. For lovers of Northern European coffee, (not Swedish) no sourness (unlike arabica) and a strong(ish) flavour. Well worth trying. I normally purchase beans from a local roaster in Glasgow, and these are almost as good.

I never knew Thailand had such exceptional robusta coffee!Beans are well roasted and strong, have a proper coffee taste, keeps my eyes open.Will buy again for sure.

I'm not a fan but I'm bearing in Mind that this is robusta and not the milder tasting and weaker arabacia.I did give a 4 for an open mind but really it's a 3 for in my subjectiveness after finishing a cup and writing the review so a 3.5 I suppose.There is a aftertaste on it that lingers a bit like saccharin but without the sweetness.It's also strange tasting coffee, sort of citrusy and burnt chocolate. I've had other robustas that are much milder and chocolate tasting .Also a very dark roast which isn't always a good thing as it roasts out the caffeine but that's down to taste again but it does introduce a bitterness.I use a wilfa grinder which is very precise at 4 espresso setting for Moka espresso and the beans ground too easily which suggested there's no oil and that was confirmed when I saw no crema . This made the coffee rather flat.I've had to mix with another lighter roast robusta bean to balance it out.The caffeine is noticeable after a cup and mine is a triple espresso. I have no doubt this is robusta but I feel it's over roasted for my taste.

Not good for espresso machines

By far the strongest coffee bean i have purchased , not too bitter deep flavour, love it !

Very distinct smell not like typical coffee. Very black beans so well toasted. Strong coffee not much bitterness but no sweetness. Low oil content powdery after taste.

Worth the money. I recommend.
