I have a Capresso grinder/brewer coffeemaker. Your beans are full-city roast (medium) and have a delicious aroma, both from the package and while being prepared. I was very disappointed in the lack of flavor, which is my fault, because it was advertised as low acidity; however, I was raised on Turkish coffee and need the acidity without the accompanying bitterness to give me the full-bodied taste I was hoping for. I just couldn't TASTE the coffee, even when I doubled the strength of the grind. When I blended some store-brand coffee with it, it improved somewhat. As a first-time buyer, I will definitely buy more in the future, but with a higher acidity--maybe with a dark roast. As with all beginners, it will just take some trial-and-error to find the right robustness of the coffee to suit my particular preferences.

Simply put, it is the best well blended coffee my husband and I have tasted recently. Neither of us can think of anything we would want to change in this coffee, and I believe we will order this bean for frequently. Marco's Seven Bean Blend is proof that you don't need to spend large sums of money to get an exceptional cup of coffee. .

I am always on the hunt for a strong coffee flavor that is not bitter. The Seven Bean sounded great, with the only cons noted being it wasn't roasted enough. So I though I would try it with a dark roast. For me it hit my happy coffee spot! Good balance of bold roasted flavor no bitterness and great coffee taste. I couldn't be more pleased with the Dark Roast 7 Bean. I am hoping to try it with some other brewing techniques!

Great coffee for espresso. Cannot comment on other methods of preparation. Full bodied coffee without unpleasant (overpowering) bitterness or acidity. Smooth taste. Will purchase again.

This my favorite coffee blend from Sanmarco. Probably my favorite coffee period. I am never disappointed whenever I make a purchase. It always taste great. I am always amazed at their quality control. This is a winner.

I'm very fussy about flavored coffee and usually am not happy with the taste. I've found that most have a better aroma than flavor. This coffee absolutely did not disappoint me in any way. The aroma was delightful and the flavor was out of this world. I purchased K-cups but I bet ground is even better. I'm placing another order for myself and my daughter. This time I'm ordering 40 k-cups so I don't run out.

Usualy I love this coffee. I always re-order. This time the coffee was not very flavorable nor did it have that ahhhh it smells so good smell.Also I noticed the beans were not oily as usual, they were dry, I belive that has something to do with it.

I brew a pot of this coffee each morning for my home wakeup call. Of the coffee I tried from San Marco, this one seems the best so far. I like the dark roast best- good flavor without too much bite.
