When you can not get Casi Ceilo this is a great substitute. Lemon, coco and rich creamy feel on rthe tounge makes it a great coffee.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is one of the best coffees offered by Starbucks in a limited offer. I drink one cup a day coffee but when I ground these beans every time I smell it I want another cup. It is awesome ! Thanks for offering these limited coffees, I have enjoyed them all immensely.
Yes, I recommend this product.

It's interesting on how , by the time I review this , it's no longer available . So what does it matter ? It matters that I get to enjoy the last of the G-F-M coffee brew left in the world and savor every last drop.
You want to know the flavor ? Why should I annoy all those who can no longer enjoy this awesome blend. To those that do have some of this left - raise your mug high and thank God for the last of this blessed flavor that engulfs your mouth with every sip. Cheers to Starbucks for doing God's work !
Yes, I recommend this product.

This coffee reminded me of home...
Taste thoughts:
Reminded me of sitting next to a blazing fire under a star speckled sky with good friends. Notes of dark chocolate and berries/cherries are an accurate description. Medium body with a unique color.
Enjoy soon!
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is a good coffee. Personally, I never picked up on the cherry notes. I would have liked a little bit of that sweetness to come through. I did pick up the cocoa and toasted nut flavors upon the first sip. For me, there was a cinnamon finish which I actually liked.
Even though I brew my coffee at home I do enjoy picking up a pastry from Starbucks to have with my coffee. With this coffee I tried Starbucks Chocolate Cinnamon loaf and it was a match made in heaven. I can honestly say that the pastry made the coffee taste better. This is why I am only awarding 4 stars. For me, this coffee needs a little help. It's a good coffee, but it needs a little help.
I know a coffee is great if I can drink it without any cream or sugar. To me, that means the coffee is well balanced. This coffee needs something extra in my opinion. For me it was a slice of chocolate cinnamon loaf. I suspect that this coffee would pair well with cream and sugar so if that is how you like to enjoy your coffee then you might have a winner in this coffee.
Like I said, it's a good coffee that just needs a little help.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Dark and delicious. Can definitely tase the dark cocoa. I could get a slight cherry note on the aftertaste. I will definitely buy again when I run out.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Maybe my pallet is just not sophisticated enough, but I didn't get any of the "Bing Cherry notes" and while I may not be a true Coffee Connoisseur I am a Bing Cherry connoisseur, and I just didn't feel it.
Which is why I can only give it a 4 star. as for the cocoa, it absolutely had that, and that is what makes it above average.
For what its worth I only make espresso.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Latin region coffees from Starbucks

Starbucks Brazilian coffee dominates any coffee i have ever had. Unfortunately i was in hospital when it came out this year after a few years of its absence. I was able to snag one from online store! Nonetheless, the Guatemala Finca Medina absolutely places right behind and on the heals of the Brazilian . I have yet to be dissatisfied with ANY of Starbucks coffees
( especially the reserves ). I don't think anyone could go wrong with any of the many Starbucks coffees but my personal favorites are absolutely the Latin region. They are all so smooth and full of flavors that makes my pallet very happy. Thank you so much Starbucks for not only your commitment to superior coffee but for the enormous support/incentives you provide for the coffee farmers/growers.
PS I know Brazilian is hard to come by but I personally would love to have access to more of your Brazilian.
Yes, I recommend this product.
