Coles Dark Roast Coffee Beans come in a 1kg package, which is competitively priced. The beans are 'Fair Trade' and 100% Arabica. The flavour strength is rated as 4, but being someone who appreciates strong coffee, I feel that it probably lies more in the mid-range strength-wise.
The aroma of the freshly ground coffee is smooth and slightly nutty.
On drinking it black (made in a plunger), it has a well-rounded and gentle soul with perhaps a slight hint of fruitiness, and a moderate aftertaste that builds up to a slow crescendo. A tiny tingle on the tongue creeps up on you after a while!
Adding milk seems to enhance the fruitiness and suppress the aftertaste to some extent, leaving a mild and balanced cup of coffee which is bound to please most palates.
