Fire Department Coffee Shellback Espresso Medium Roast Premium Whole Bean Coffee, 12 oz

I bought because it was a roll-back and a big discount. Im glad I did because this is now one of my favorite strong coffees. I use it in my ninja pods and grounds. After a coarse end of a espresso grind. Its perfect. Nice and strong. I ran out and had Trader Joes version and did the same exact steps and noticed a huge drop in both flavor, boldness and strength. Im buying this again and even the K-cups if Im running late and dont have time to grind.

We recently purchased an espresso machine and needed espresso beans. Found these on sale , ordered some and have been pleasantly surprised! I've re-ordered two times now, even bought some for my son who was on subs in the Navy. Sub-mariners are called Shellbacks. Excellent coffee!!

My wife loves it more than Starbucks so that works for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love brewing and drinking the Shellback Espresso before I head out to my overnight job. It tastes good and gives me enough pep to start my laborious tasks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE espresso. Very few brews have hitvthe mark for me. Shellback is robust and velvety with a rich depth of flavor. So smooth and yummy over whipped cream! My favorite of the FDC brews.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love the Shellback!! The taste is rich, robust and the aroma is sweet. Perfect way for me to start my early days!

I love this coffee but the last order i received was the wrong order. They sent me the ground coffee and i ordered the whole beans and i have to wait a couple weeks for it.. not happy!!

I was super excited to try this because my husband's a firefighter and he's a shell back from his time in the Navy! When I opened it up, some spilled on the counter and I noticed a bug. I was so grossed out. I dumped the entire bag out and also noticed that it's not all whole coffee beans so if you would like to drink bugs in the morning, go ahead and try this out

Not what I hoped for. Kind of bland.
