Customers like the taste of the coffee. They say it has a wonderful, robust flavor that's not bitter or acidic, and is a really good coffee. The beans never taste burnt, and are easy to grind and brew. They also love the whole bean coffee that is bitter enough to be interesting, yet mellow enough that it does not make it too acidic. It makes some of the best at home espresso they've ever had. They appreciate the quality of the bean, the roast, the freshness, and the oiliness, and say that the Kick Ass has s far superior body.

Above average!
We are consistent in search of great coffee and Kicking Horse checks all the boxes. This dark roast coffee strikes a great balance between its flavors while avoiding the bitterness some dark roast are known for. We’ve made it with a French press and a Auto Drip machine. If using the drip, we recommend a finer grind with 2.5 tablespoons of coffee per 10 cups of water. If using the press, we recommend a medium grind and about 2 tablespoons of coffee to 8 cups of water. You can adjust to personal taste from there. The flavor description is spot on. We expected a bit more “kick” from this blend, but what punch it does have is evident. The roasting appears even across all the beans thus producing a beautiful dark brown/black shiny product with great aroma. We did note just a hint of acidity, but very acceptable and below normal for this type bean/roast. The dominate flavor is dark chocolate (mocha) but is well balanced with a Smokey sweetness. It is definitely a “morning” coffee and we rate it 4.0 out of 5.
