I've tried dozens of different dark roast coffees and Obsidian Espresso ranks in my top 2 or 3 best ever for an all-day coffee brewed in a French press. Absolutely delicious!

First tasted this from a coffee shop and fell in love. Been gifting it to friends and sipping at home using an aeropress.

I was looking for organic, fair trade coffee and I found Grounds for Change. I read about the company and the sustainable practices and the Femenino project. I was sold and hoping the coffee was great.
I was blown away by the coffee! I have ordered just 1 bag of their dark blend called Obsidian and look forwarding to trying out others. The espresso was very smooth with no hint of acidity. I also appreciate that the coffee is roasted fresh once my order is placed.
I do hope they start a subscription plan option soon. I will experiment at the start with different coffees (for which their Coffee of the Month program is great) , but eventually will purchase the one I like the most.
I am a fan and will be buying my coffee from here now!
