Odacrem Premium Hand-Roasted Coffee
** I received a complimentary sample for this review **
I love a good cup of Joe in the morning and after dinner. Well, make it two cups each time and maybe another around 3 pm. Regular or decaf, it doesn’t matter. It’s the sensation of the warm cup in my hands and the steam coming from the glorious brew that gets me. Hmm, maybe I do have a problem.
I’ve cut consumption and that makes the quality and flavor of the coffee I do have more important. Since cutting back I’ve tried several brands and brews. Some are good, some meh, a couple were bad, and one was a never again. It was so bad I was thrilled that I only had that sample bag to deal with. Odacrem’s Moka Simado falls into the good category. It’s a smooth, nutty Ethiopian brew with light acidity. Since this was my first taste of Odacrem’s brews, I took a closer look at the company.
Odacrem Coffee is a small company based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Odacrem is a play on the family name. They have over 45 years of knowledge and passion for coffee and it shows. One tidbit made me smile – they hand roast each batch of coffee when orders are placed and immediately ship them. The bag of Moka Simado I received on April 9th was roasted on April 3rd, making this the freshest roast I’ve tasted to date. If my regular carrier was working this week, I might have gotten it in time for my morning coffee break.
The first whiff when I opened the bag was fantastic and the scent while brewing made me excited about tasting it. It was equally good black, with a touch of almond milk and sweetener, and over ice. This was my first medium roast in ages and I liked it.
Odacrem Premium Hand-Roasted Coffee is available in several varieties. From light to dark brews, regular and decaffeinated, you’re sure to find the right brew for you. Whole beans and ground available, including espresso and coarse French Press grinds. Treat yourself to a bag or two. Shipping is free, but they only ship within the continental US. The gift combo box is priced just right and a great way to sample three varieties at once.
