Description
Intelligentsia Frequency Blend's flavor profile is simple, yet refined: the Brazil component contributes a smooth body and predominant note of milk chocolate, with the washed Zambia adding an accent of lemongrass, pineapple, and breakfast tea. It’s what we refer to as a “chuggable” coffee: a well-balanced blend that’s enjoyable on it's own, or with a little added milk if that’s your preference. It’s a harmonious composition of pulped-natural Brazilian coffee and fully washed Zambian coffee that changes seasonally depending on what is fresh and tasting great. Hand-picked coffee cherries from family owned and operated farms are de-pulped (the flesh of the fruit is stripped away from the seed) and dried on patios in the sun and finished in temperature-regulated gentle mechanical driers. Our commitment to quality and our Direct Trade mission mean our blend origins change throughout the year to incorporate the freshest offerings. Since 1995, Intelligentsia has been placing a deep emphasis on sourcing the most exquisite coffee available on Earth, paying a fair price for that coffee, roasting it with purpose and precision, and connecting with the community, both in their hometown of Chicago and around the globe to help shape the coffee industry and deliver the most extraordinary coffees.

Good Cup of Coffee

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never buy whole bean coffee (it’s very rare and usually on accident) - but I always forget how fresh the coffee is when you grind it right before you brew it. This was really rich coffee, and I enjoyed it with some frothed oat milk creamer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee has a great rich aroma. The packaging is reclosable. There are no instruction on the package how to brew but can be looked up easily. It does have a long shelf life without losing the flavor. The beans will grind up nicely in a blender it you don't own a coffee grinder.
Tastes Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great tasting coffee. We enjoyed the process of grinding our beans but would love to purchase a pre ground bag. Packaging looks nice and not over the top.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Frequency Blend is the perfect cup of coffee. I love the aroma of the whole beans and the ability to grind them however fine I’d like. It also keeps the coffee remarkably fresh. The notes of golden raisin, raw sugar and molasses are wonderful for fall.
Delightfully Smooth

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I prefer a light or medium roast coffee, and this Intelligentsia Frequency did not disappoint! It has a smooth finish without any bitterness. I will definitely add this to my rotation of go-to coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee is EVERYTHING! Smooth flavor and can easily be enjoyed without cream or sugar (and that’s saying ALOT). The packaging is very simple, and cute. The price point is perfect, I have already purchased a bag for my sister-in law and she’s in love!
Uniquely bold flavor you’ve been looking for!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A very unique blend of whole bean coffee that has the perfect hint of raisins, raw sugar and molasses! Comes as a whole bean that will need to be self grounded at home before use, but is so worth it if your looking for a unique and bold change to your usual old traditional coffee brand!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the packaging and bag zip so it stays fresh. I don't agree with this being a medium roast though, it is pretty light and definitely doesn't have a lot of caffeine compared to my usual medium roast. The taste is sweet and bitter and pairs well with creamer and sugar. It's a bit pricey.
A Smooth, Sweet Coffee Perfect for Any Morning

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Intelligentsia’s Frequency coffee has become a staple in my morning routine. The flavor is incredibly smooth with a natural sweetness that makes every sip enjoyable. Whether I use an unflavored creamer or something with a bit more flair, it always pairs beautifully. The fact that it comes in whole bean form is a bonus—it really does make a difference when you grind it fresh. You can taste the freshness in every cup. If you're looking for a balanced, versatile coffee, Frequency is definitely worth trying!
A good coffee

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee has a nice light flavor that is savory and a little fruity. I ground it as needed, so I only drank the coffee freshly ground. It was very nice with nice, easily closed packaging. I would purchase again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really good coffee. It is bold yet not bitter and has a great aroma without smelling like flavored coffee. It is definitely more expensive than a basic bag of beans and the bag isn’t very big. But for a nice treat this is a great coffee.
Excellent light roast!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought the beans definitely had the scent notes of tart raisin and molasses! We used our coffee to make cold brew for the week, and with a splash of lemonade it was the perfect morning pick me up for a hot summer day. I think this coffee has made both my husband and I prefer a light roast, and we'll definitely look for this one again!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to buy a grinder for this. lol. It was a decent lighter coffee. I don’t enjoy coffee like I used to due to my keirig breaking. I liked it enough to buy it if I see it in one of the stores I grocery shop in.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the coffee and it says it’s going to expire on within two weeks. I didn’t bother to grind much as it’s 12oz pack and at least it would have lasted for 3-6 weeks for me !! But anyway I gave it try for smaller batch and it tasted like any normal coffee that you get it from gas station!! Not much more to say about it honestly!
Very good coffee
