Gorgeous coffee, lovely fruity notes.

This is a delicious coffee with its fruity dark chocolate notes. Smells amazing and my work colleagues say so too. Goes really well with honeyed dark chocolate : )

Very earthy tasting and really does taste of coffee!!. Not at it's best if drunk immediately after eating a pickled egg but apart from that very good indeed.

Amazing coffee, can pick all the individual notes out of it but finding it hard to get just right using an aeropress. More than happy to keep practicing tho ;-)

I managed to dial the grinder in very quickly on these beans which produced a smooth silky brew which started off with a nice acidic mouthfeel and then produced a complex fruity flavour in spades.
A great coffee and easy to drink.

Incredible flavours.

Undoubtedly one of the best tasting coffees I've had, and Foundry are a wonderful company to deal. If you haven't tried Rocko Mountain then you really should.

This is just a really *nice* coffee - slightly complex, big on the sweetness and lovely and fruity if you get it right. Currently got this on rotation with the ever present Rocko, but finding myself looking forward to this coming around. Enjoying this coffee as espresso and pour over, and also in milk. I would agree with the previous reviewer that its quite a 'comfort' coffee, but that doesn't mean its boring, far from it. Must admit to not knowing a lot about Rwandan coffee prior to this, but will happily be coming back for more!

A good example of a "comfort coffee" I think. It was very popular as a cappuccino providing smooth milk chocolate notes. As a filter, you get a great balanced but slightly sweet very drinkable coffee. Dialling it in for espresso I'm getting a sweet and slightly fruity drink, using 16.5 g in a longer 40 g shot with 5-6 seconds of pre-infusion over about 25 seconds in total.

A perfect example of a washed Ethiopian coffee. Delicat,light and refreshing.

We did enjoy this coffee and would recommend but the Rio Magdalena (the other one we tried) won the vote!
Working our way through the different coffees

First order from Foundry Coffee roasters. This was a great tasting coffee with good strength. Five stars from the whole family and they are a fussy lot!!
Have just put another order in!

This is a very good coffee - drinking it as a flat white and it is buttery smooth as described with a nice chocolate note. Second time ordering and I will be getting a bag each time I order. This true comfort coffee.

Just started these and the espresso I'm getting is up there with the best I've had .lelit Mara using eureka zenith grinder

The first time through the Wave and I was thinking "sure - strawberries - whatever". POW - right in the kisser: strawberries. What an amazing coffee. Has knocked my old favourite (from a different supplier) off the top spot. And its roasted in Sheffield. Your new biggest fan.

Having tried a lot of beans (with chocolate as the primary note) over the last decade, I have a new favouite. Also very nice as a flat white.

Really good-my new favourite coffee

Usually get the Rocco Mountain, just shows that I should diversify. Excellent coffee!

Very strong but full flavoured. Not bitter and natural flavours coming through. I’m a double shot man but this I could easily drink with a single shot and still get the coffee hit I like.

Great Service Magnificent Coffee beans

Another great roast from the foundry, strawberry undertone. Will be buying again.

Yirgacheffe's are my favourite coffees and this is one of the very best.

Brewed in the Aeropress, tasted too soon (as always!) and thought "Meh!". But leave it for a couple of mins to cool slightly and it becomes fragrant and the flavours open out and are nicely complex. Wonderful rounded mouthfeel and long aftertaste. Great coffee, very well roasted.

This is just so good. I just spent a month in LA looking for decent coffee and I couldn't find anything that compared to Foundry's offering!

Hits the spot everytime.

I've tried MANY roasters in my time but FCR are briiliant and reliable.
Everytime

Ordered, delivered, drunk. Need some more. Love this rich coffee. Service is fantastic and freshness guaranteed. Buy some!!

I'm not a huge fan of the citrus coffees, if I want citrus I'll have a fruit tea! This coffee I love, it tastes like coffee; sweet, caramel, chocolate. 250g gone in 3 days, addicted.

I admit I was initially disappointed to open my subscription and find these beans, not one I would have picked from the tasting notes. How wrong was I! Amazing. It tastes a bit like black tea, but in a really good way.

Great service and great beans. Happiness is complete. Thanks.

This one and the Nana, I purchased at the same time. Turns out to be the best two Ethiopians I've had. Full of flavour andwith no hint of bitterness. You won't go wrong with these.

My first espresso with this bean was a surprise. The booziness, full on strawberries and funk from previous years Rocko isn't there. Once I got my head around this I really enjoyed the coffee.

Dark chocolate orange with a great mouthfeel and lingering aftertaste. Stunning coffee !

These cups are just the right size for your grab and go fix. The coffee stays warm for a bit depending on where you are obviously and they are small enough to not be in the way when empty. Holds an espresso with extra water (whatever that’’s called, not as big as an Americano) or a Cortado. Colours are fab too, had many an admiring glance. I would definately recommend to anyone who doesn’t drink a vat of coffee at a time :)

Brother really liked it and he's fussy with coffee

As a Londinium owner, I have traditionally gone for "air roasted" coffee, but when Reiss left the country, this became less straight forward, it is difficult to find. I settled for Allpress, their roasts are excellent, unfortunately their beans are not.

So far everything from Foundry has been top class, clearly Lee starts with a great bean, which is always a good place to begin. :)

Excellent in aeropress and cafetière

Good coffee to be made. Worth taking time to get the grind just right..!

Lovely smooth coffee. One of our favourites

This is the 3rd time in the last 3 month that I have purchase this coffee I love its chocolate taste, smooth mouth feel, I have made this my beachmark in which I judge other coffee well done the foundry for making this great coffee.

In a brewer rather than an Aeropress or V60… turns out to be a very nice floral Ethiopian … Will be trying in my espresso machine at the weekend ...

The first time for subscripion Excellent !
