I've tried all the STARBUCK Coffees, we love the richness/boldness of Gold Coast. No other coffee compares. We have a hard time finding it in MN so we purchase online at the Starbucks website. My hubby takes it to BWCA & all the guys raved about it. Asked what kind it was & to see the package. No wonder we have such a hard time finding it.
Ever since my son introduced me to Starbucks (this past summer), I wouldn't have any other. His twin daughters, my grandaughters, one of whom was a barista, got him hooked and now I am. His son (four years old) calls all other coffees "brown water"!
We initially purchased Gold Coast at a Starbuck store. We loved it for its complex and bold flavor but ESPCIALLY because it was not an oily bean. This is very important in the espresson maker, (Capresso), that we use as oily beans tend to 'slip' in the grinder and not grind properly. However, the Gold Coast that we purchased WAS a quite oily roast, so we were disappointed in that. The flavor still seemed quite good.
