Eight O’Clock Coffee, French Roast Whole Bean, 12-Ounce Bag
OK, so I became a coffeeaholic back in the 90′s…since then I have tried just about every coffee imaginable….I have toiled with coffee presses…coffee grinders…pods…grind and brews…and you regular old drip mr. coffee pot. I have owned at least 6 different machines not including espresso makers…so what’s wrong, why can’t I get a decent cup of coffee. Oh sure, new machine I may like for a few months, but then it’s back to mr. bitter coffee and many trips to DD and Starbucks…So what’s wrong? I’ll tell you what’s wrong, I kept passing by the $3 bag of 8 o’clock whole bean french roast with my nose in the air! Fool! I have been faithfully drinking this 8′clock coffee for 6 months now…I am beyond satisfied knowing EVERY cup will be a masterpiece. I am now shunning DD and Starbucks…and my wallet thanks me. Please give it a try…it will change your life…oh and, in case your interested, current coffee pot is a Melitta Mill & Brew which works well with the beans.
ENJOY!

Eight O’Clock Coffee, French Roast Whole Bean, 12-Ounce Bag
A few years ago, I was teaching in the culinary program of a university here in Philadelphia. One of the things we did was incorporate tastings in most of the courses. As the students got more senior, they learned to run the tastings themselves. In the course of doing this, we got to taste a range of products through the eyes and palates of future chefs and kitchen managers.
All the tastings were blind so brand names were not a factor.
In two coffee tastings, each with over twenty tasters and using filter drip brewing, Eight O’clock French Roast came in second in a field of a dozen coffees. The coffee that beat it both times-LaColombe-costs just about twice as much.
This coffee is smoky and emphatic with a full body and a long-almost winey finish. A great bargain and widely available.

Eight O’Clock French Roast whole bean is a big step above Folgers and other supermarket coffee. But if you like Starbucks or Peets you’ll be disappointed. It’s nowhere close to the full rich bold flavor and smell (some would say burned but I like it) of these two (and some other local and regional coffeehouses where they roast their own beans).
To me, Folgers-type coffees have a thin bitter aftertaste. Eight O’Clock has a bit of that though not bad. However, the beans don’t look freshly roasted and don’t have a strong aroma when first opening the bag. They look only slightly oily and light brown. Not the dark oily look of fresh Starbucks or Peets beans.
I doubled the amount of coffee I usually use to brew and the flavor isn’t bad, just not rich and strong. I may try the Dark Italian Roast version to see if I like it any better.
** Update 4/20/10 ** I tried mixing these coffee beans with Starbucks beans. The resulting coffee is a big improvement over Eight O’Clock alone and slightly mellows the Starbucks.

This coffee is not very strong and I am surprised they even call it French Roast b/c it has about the same taste as folders or maxwell coffees which are terrible. The beans do not have much oil on them when you open the bag and the aroma from the beans is not very strong. This coffee is no where near as good as Starbucks or Trader Joe’s whole beans. If you are looking for dark rich coffee, look elsewhere.

This coffee lacks the richness I am used to in coffee beans that are french roasted. Although it doesn’t make a bad cup of coffee in my book it is not frech roasted.
