NEPTUNE BLEND #1155

"Roseline does it again! This one is a fantastic darker roast that has more of a medium roast feel to it and that means it’s just perfect for me. Smooth and balanced with a slight chocolatey creaminess. Really a nice breakfast cuppa."

"Putting this on my list of beans good enough to buy a whole bag—chocolate flavor is quite prominent in my sample bag brewed in a moccamaster. Dark but not burnt, smooth, delicious with a splash of half and half but could happily drink it black also."

"Said it was supposed it be chocolatey but I found it kind of bitter and bland. Not the best brew I've ever had."

"rich, smooth, bold, enticing, and velvety. An absolute godsend in the form of coffee beans. Will be buying again"

"The only thing that prevents me from giving one star is the customer service experience, which has been very pleasant for this first time buyer. My order was filled quickly, I liked the little tips that came with the beans, and customer service was quickly responsive to my subsequent questions about the beans, including offering to replace them. But the beans. . . . ick. I find myself completely confused, because what I received was nothing like how this blend was described, either by Bean Box or other customers. Instead of receiving a dark roast, I was sent a medium-to-light roast. I took a photo of it and sent it to Bean Box, thinking I must have been sent the wrong one. They insisted I got the right beans., but when I tasted them they had none of the flavor qualities indicated here . The body was thin, the taste was weak, and the flavor was acidic and bitter to the extent it had any flavor at all. Certainly none of the spice, the chocolate, or the full body described here. The disconnect between what I was sent and how this blend is described creates a mystery: either despite Bean Box's assurances I was in fact sent the wrong beans, or else Neptune blend is absolutely nothing like described here. Since Bean Box insists that I did get Neptune blend, I can only conclude that Neptune blend is in fact a medium-to-light, thin, bitter, acidic blend, and very unsatisfying to drink. If the replacement beans aren't any better, I'll have to reluctantly conclude that Bean Box's online descriptions aren't reliable, and will probably give up on the service as a result. "

"Sometimes really dark roasts taste to burnt, but this one is smooth and best with heavy cream."

"This was way too bold for me. I've been loving Fonte Portofino which is also on the bold side. Beanbox was out of this so they suggested this blend as an alternative. But I was really disappointed as it's much darker than the portofino. That said when making it as a cold brew it came out decently. Wouldn't order again. "

"This is my holiday blend! Love the flavor! "

"One of my new favorites! Bold and smooth, perfect with a splash of sweet creamer!"

"Very flavorful and we liked it a lot..."
