This matches the quality of more expensive coffee beans that I have bought from specialty whole bean roasters. I always use a French Press, making 24 fluid ounces per brew. I doubt that the flavor would be as good it I used drip or other more popular methods. That is true for all coffees I have tried. Jana · walmart.com
