What owners single out
In their words
“I have brewed as a pour over and in the aeropress and it never fails, without a doubt my favorite blend. At home we roast our own coffee but I have to come back to blue bottle every once in a while to treat myself. Not too acidic, not to bitter just perfect for my taste. So we'll balanced between the fruitiness of the Ethiopian and warm comfort notes of who knows what else but it's so good.”

“I have been ordering this coffee for a few years now. It is our ‘go to’. I’ve tried local roasters in my area, but nothing tastes as good to us as Bella Donovan. It is smooth and flavorful without being bitter at all. The coffee is always consistent in taste from bag to bag, which is important to us.”
