I had been buying this coffee in small retail bags when I could find it in stock. The 40 ounce package is more convenient and a cost saving purchase. Thanks Sam's.

Delicious, robust, smooth and dark. If you're not a medium roast or less kinda person this is the best bang for your buck. We've been buying this for years.

This is hands down the best Starbucks coffee in the world! Now this comes in beans so you need a grinder in the store or at home. You grind these magic beans to fine and it will make your coffee maker seem gourmet. Thank me later.

Beans are solid for espresso, not that freshly roasted but that’s expected at this price for 40 oz of branded coffee. Better than I expected though, but doesn’t compare to freshly roasted quality beans.

This is the best coffee! I had been looking for a deal to start making the Starbucks iced shaken espresso recipe at home and this hits the nail on the head!

Best deal, you can't beat it. It's a crying shame that Sam's doesn't offer more varieties of hole bean coffee. Italian roast coffee in the 40oz would be a good one to start with!!!!!!!

What can one say.... this is the king of coffee flavor! I have got so spoiled that will no longer even try other brands. The reason? difference is humongous... Starbucks is a 10 out of 10 whereas the next best is below 7 out of 10.

Love the bold taste of Starbucks coffees. Pleasantly surprised how fresh the coffee is upon opening bag. Hope Sam’s offer other bold flavored whole beans like French, Italian or Sumatra…

If you like dark roast with a deep rich flavor this is the one. Follow the instruction on the bag and its almost too strong. I adjusted it to my own tastes and the flavor is really great. Nice strong cup of Joe

We like dark roast coffee. I was concerned this might be too dark/strong flavored. It's not. Tasty and enjoyable. We rarely GO to Starbucks so really hard no idea what to expect. Purchased two bags so we are glad it's to our liking.
