Try it black first. Fresh roasted coffee isn't bitter, so you may not need the cream and sugar.

Why our coffee tastes smoother
Most of our regulars drink it black. Not because they're tough, but because there's nothing to cover up. Bitterness in most coffee comes from beans that are stale, low grade or roasted too dark. We fix all three.
- Fresh roasted. Roasted in small batches and shipped fresh, not aged for months in a warehouse. Coffee loses its sweetness as it goes stale and turns flat and harsh.
- Specialty-grade beans. Carefully sourced coffee from named regions and growers, with natural sweetness you can taste.
- Roasted to the sweet spot. Most of our coffees are roasted medium, which brings out chocolate and caramel instead of burnt, ashy bitterness.
- The right grind. Ground for your brewer, so it doesn't over-extract, the most common cause of a bitter cup.
Questions
Good to know
Which grind should I buy?
Standard grind for drip machines and pour over, coarse for French press and cold brew, and whole bean if you grind at home or make espresso.
What if I don't like my pick?
Try a sampler first. The Best Sellers Sampler has six 2 oz bags, so you can taste several coffees before buying a full bag.
Why is fresh roasted coffee less bitter?
Coffee loses its natural sweetness as it goes stale. Fresh beans, roasted to medium and ground for your brewer, taste sweet and smooth without cream or sugar.
