Q: How freshly roasted are these bags?
submitted by Tätte - 4 years ago
A: Most are freshly roasted before shipping.
submitted byShannon - 4 years agoA: It's hit or miss on freshness. I've received some packages that were already past their best by date, but Target customer service is top notch and will fix those issues right away. For the price and the awesome Target customer service, I wouldn't hesitate to order.

Love this coffee but it was not as good nearly as the last batch of fast forward my brother had purchased when I got my new breville, It tasted a little bitter although the brew by date was good.
Ahh-mazing

This coffee tastes bland/ watered down and sour all at the same time. Very disappointed and would not recommend to anyone.
I’ve tried the Fast Forward coffee that Cometer makes with their flash freeze technique so I had to try the fresh coffee bean version and I wasn’t disappointed. Some good everyday drinking coffee, great in a pour over.

Should have checked the reviews. Exactly what most warned about. Sour and strange smell like some chemical. This is truly unacceptable.
Pricy but a great cup of coffee

I've had all levels of coffee from expensive to lower end! I've had coffee in Europe and on travels of mine. This is an excellent chocolatey smooth blend. No acid flavor, like a starbucks blend. Just smooth chocolate and slight nutty flavor to me. Totally worth the price. I buy whole and grind my coffe before brewing. Give it a try 10/10!
I love this one for Latte

I bought this one and also Apollo and hologram. I feel this one is my most favorable ones for latte. It doesn’t taste sour or bitter. Just perfect nutty flavor. I will repurchase this one.
Not for me, but maybe for you... ^.^

I really wanted to like. It’s organic and super fresh. It says roasted 11/1/24 so it’s only a month old. And it has the expiration date which is great. Easy to find on the back. Although the coffee was too light/ mild of a taste and too watery no matter how much water I added. Whole beans had a light smell which was good but not strong at all.. so I ground the beans up to espresso fine to make it a little stronger and hopefully better…, And it did in strength… but not taste. My kids loved it though and since it’s not as strong as I would love it to be. It’s perfect for them so I am happy it won’t go to waste. It’s all in preference. I am a very dark strong espresso lover so if you are too then maybe you’d want something different. This product is not fair trade, but it’s organic like I said, and it’s B certified, kosher, very fresh and very clean. Since my kids like it, I might buy again. I don’t know we will see.
Wanted to like it…

I’m not usually one to leave reviews, but I was pretty disappointed with this blend. I used it was my breville espresso machine and had a difficult time dialing this in. The shots were not pulling correctly no matter how many adjustments I made. I thought it was user error but I tried my other beans and had no issues. This coffee smells amazing but it’s too bitter for my liking.
Sweet and nutty - I imagine tens of chocolate

Favorite all time!! It's sweet. It's nutty and I feel like it borders on CHOC the way hazelnut does.

There is no words to describe how grateful I'm everytime drinking the coffee produced by Counter Culture, me and my wife tried lots of brands, Lavazza, Starbucks, some Costco brands, none of them tasted as good as "Fast Forward" by counter Culture. Keep doing it guys, you're rock!
GREAT !!!

This is pretty much our "go to" coffee. We like many of the others, but we always have a supply of Fast Forward on hand
Versatile and yummy.

CCC is a new brand in my local food store and the whole product line was pretty fresh so I tried it. I was impressed with source labeling which led me to the purchase. Delightfully surprised with the results using my Hario Switch. I’ve tried three recipes so far and am able to pull different notes with each.
A little off?

I’m not a huge coffee person but I don’t like this. It doesn’t taste smooth and creamy, it tastes acidic… I tried it plain, with milk, and creamer but it just tastes a little off

I really like Fast Forward. It’s so smooth and creamy. Definitely a little nutty, which is the perfect combination in a cup of coffee for me. My husband wasn’t allowed to have any at first because I liked it so much but I decided he should have some. It’s pretty good.
