"Classic. Had this a few times, a good one for the mix. "
"Amazing flavor and the perfect
caramel toasty subtlety that wakes you up in the morning. Preferred this black and it's now my regular."
"Not what i thought it would be after reading all the reviews. Somewhat disappointed."
"Probably the smoothest coffee I have ever drank. It has an incredible natural sweetness with a noticeable
chocolate flavor. Will always be one of my go to coffees. "
"I've struggled with this one. To be fair I tried two separate orders two months apart. Through a
v60 pour over I can get a decent cup of coffee but the
chocolate hints are non-existent--it's just a decent cup of coffee. That's it. I've tried medium fine through medium coarse grinds using an OXO burr grinder and get bitter through sour but no choc flavor notes. Weird. Through a cheap drip coffee maker I get nothing. I always start with 25g beans with 12 oz water for either method. With the
v60 I think the bloom time is necessary to pull any flavor at all. Power to everyone that can make this bean work but for me it's been a fail. Oddly enough, it's the only bean that has given me such a struggle. I tried emailing for suggestions on approach but heard crickets. That said, the reputation of the company seems high so I'm trying to different beans to see if I can make them work."
"Made this in a
french press and a drip brewer. Good dark coffee. It was hard to get the brind right for the oxo brewer, but once I did the coffee had a nice sweetness that lingered."
"My aunt is 92 yrs old, I fixed her a cup off one of the many great blends (don't remember which one) I buy from bean box. Her response was 'this is the best cup of coffee I have ever had in my life'.! Coming from someone with that many years of drinking coffee pretty much says it all about bean box coffees. When they are all that good it is impossible to pick a favorite. I have never written a review of anything in my entire life before now. "
"My go-to coffee every time I order from Bean Box. You will not be sad, also works as an
espresso blend if you want to use an
espresso machine. "
"Coffee is smooth, light
chocolate taste. Med dark color. Very good and arrived very quickly. I was very pleased with this coffee. I use a Moccamaster drip machine with a coarse grind and it came out great "
"This made a great
espresso and cappuccino. It is full of rich flavor without being overpowering. "
"Add one every time I place an order as this is my go-to coffee from bean box!!"
"This is NOT a
dark roast - way too light. I did not like it at all. Am sorry I wasted my money on it."
"This coffee is so good, full-bodied, dark, and best served as a pour-over. So delicious!"
"The SMOOTHEST coffee you will ever drink. So much
chocolate flavor but not too intense. I drink my coffee black. It’s incredible
iced as well! My new Go-to, you won’t be disappointed! "
"It is my favorite so far! Love the
caramel notes."
"I enjoy dark side of the moon every morning "
"Not bad but I've had better dark, earthy coffees. Wouldn't purchase again if other options were available."
"We usually like earthy coffees (e.g., sumatra), but this one has an after taste that is a bit too earthy. Have loved most of the coffees from BeanBox, this particular one just isn't a hit in this household."
"I ordered ground and was sent beans. I can’t taste until I buy a grinder. "
"Very nice. Perfect pot in the morning."

"I love Dark Side of the Moon! Just the right roast and a great balance of coffee,
chocolate and
caramel, it's heaven with a little raw sugar and half and half or cream. I like trying different coffees, but I always come back to this one."
"This was my first coffee from Bean Box in a sampler pack and I can see why it's a favorite here! I'm a
light roast kinda gal, but even so, if I was going to go for a
dark roast, this would be my choice! Deep
chocolate notes and super yum with oat milk!"
"Wonderful for expresso!"
"I wish I loved this, very high expectations from all of the great reviews. Far too earthy for my taste. I could definitely taste the
chocolate notes, and it smells great. However, the flavor was very off-putting. Maybe I just got an off batch?"
"amazing taste and flavor. My go-to from bean box anytime I order I make sure to add a bag! "
"Ridiculously good! Thanks for your superior product, excellent packaging and awesome service. I am kind of overwhelmed (in a positive way) to experience famous Seattle coffee while on the east coast. Thank you!"
"For a
dark roast, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this coffee. Not typically a huge fan of
dark roasts, but this coffee was well roasted, and tasted amazing using James Hoffmann's
french press method. As it cooled, it got more and more interesting. Will definitely buy again. "
"Dark Side of the Moon never has failed to provide great aroma and outstanding taste. A
dark roast favorite!"

"Top of my list, I live in Miami so everything here as far as
espresso needs sugar like alot. I can drink this without it! Really good can wait to order more!!"
"Wonderful taste, one of my favorites. I drink it with a little half and half, and the flavor holds up nicely."
"Amazing profile and taste. My fourth time purchasing."
"It was very good. I enjoyed it very much. I mix in with
almond milk,collagen powder,cacao and a little butter. It is not bitter and this coffee has a special flavor."
"Probably the best coffee I have ever had! It is robust but not too strong, with dark
chocolate and deep nuttiness that is very satisfying. Low acidity which I like a well. "
"Very good. All the tasting notes came through. "
"This is our favorite coffee so far ever!! We can’t wait to try the other 2 we ordered. So bold, and flavorful "
"Amazing taste and profile. Great with my frothed milk in the morning."
"Very smooth with subtle notes of
chocolate which we absolutely loved. Great way to start or end the day!"
"Yum yum yum. This coffee was sooooo good. If we didn't have a back stock we would order a whole bag. "
"This coffee is our favorite. It’s dark and complex with beautiful flavors. I love sipping it slowly. I add one pump sugar free vanilla to bring out the flavor and add a dash of heavy cream. This coffee is so smooth I could enjoy it black as well. It’s our go to and I re order often. "
"We have been trying different coffee beans and my boyfriend didn’t comment much as long as I order
dark roasted ones. The first time, he asked me to stick with this buttery one."
"A wonderful way to start the morning. I will be adding this to my buy again list!"
"Love the taste!!! Lovely afternoon treat!"
"Smooth, Clean and no after taste. Has to be the BEST coffee I've gotten from Bean Box. No doubt I'll be ordering more "Dark Side of the Moon""
"Exceptional
dark roast. Not too complicated.....just smooth, toasty and now one of my all time favorites."
"One of my favorites! Perfect for both a regular cup and
espresso. Dark, earthy and
decadent. "
