Not every flavored coffee is something you can drink every day, but this one is—you’ll never get tired of it

This is insane!

The best coffee I've ever had
The package is too small

very interesting, non-standard flavor profile
I don't rate it as a classic coffee, but among flavored coffees, it's one of the best.
The aroma of whiskey greatly overshadows the taste of coffee.

It taste like whiskey, and so does well in espresso drinks, with or without milk
Mouthfeel is incredible.
It just tastes like whiskey - hard to say this reminds me of coffee in the flavor profile
Very strong nose and flavor. Almost off putting
This is a very specific coffee, not for everyone. Definitely not for people who enjoy fruity light roasts

Whiskey barrel aroma right out of the pack
Reminds me of irish coffee
Somewhat classical profile without being overly acidic
Double shot americano is nice!
The 1kg pack doesn't have a locking stripe

Imagine it: you get up in the morning, it's freezing outside, the fire is crackling in the fireplace. You put water on the coffee and open a bag of Common Grounds. Taste the aroma of bourbon vanilla throughout the room and create a perfectly 'cozy' atmosphere.
Simple and forgiving. Common Grounds can handle almost anything – French press, V60, mocha pot.
Perfect even for complete beginners.
