Just picked up a can of this at Whole Foods. $4.99 for a 14oz can of whole bean coffee. It comes in a light, medium and dark roast. I picked up the light roast. Anyone tried this yet? I guess it can't be too bad, and you can't beat the price!
Was it any good? I have enjoyed their Peaberry something-something before but found their Bay Blend Ultra Roast (aka Dark Vienna) to be undrinkable.
Is there anything on the package that indicates why it is called Three Beans Coffee? The link I found did not describe any details.
You are most probably right. But also sounds lot like some feel good marketing term. If the packaging doesn't describe whether the coffee comes from three different origins, regions, farms, etc, I am suspicious. Like some of that so called Kona coffee that was mostly not Kona.Common sense dictates that it's a three bean blend. I am assuming, of course.
If the three beans aren't identified, even vaguely, it leaves the door open to change as seasonality, cost, and availability shift over time without having to produce different labels for each quarter, six months, year, or whatever the rate of change is. I bet the #1 goal is consistent taste, and what it takes to achieve said flavor profile is of no concern.. just as long as they can do it in some proportion of three coffees.. even if one of them is only 1% of the blend.You are most probably right.
