The cocoa was tasty with a hint of cinnamon coming through. I probably need to experiment with the proportions to increase the depth of flavor. But the ingredients are of good quality.
I haven't received either order, but am very excited to try your coffee. I've only ever heard great things about it.
Order arrived promptly. The coffee is a delicious blend, not over-roasted, and a great balance and flavor. Definitely will be going back to Cortez again.
This dark roast makes amazing pour over. Smooth taste and clean finish. Love the packaging. Really like this flavor as well as the Nepal and Volcan Azul Tarrazu.
Really great tasting espresso. Pour over was really good as well. Fast shipping and freshly roasted.
Slightly acidic, but is medium roast so makes sense. No bitterness at all. Slightly sweet. I can drink it black! I DO PREFER THEIR SUMATRA THOUGH! still a good coffee.
I ordered a gift and it shipped to the incorrect address. Patrick sent out a new bag and he was quick to respond. Will buy again!

I’ve been buying Primo from Cortez Coffee for over 20 years. It can’t be beat. I look forward to my morning cup of Primo. It makes my day.
I keep hearing from the person I gifted this to, that it's just amazing. I've converted another person. Great for holiday season gifts.
I buy more and more from local roasters, but still learning how to describe the various smells. But, this was smooth with some hints of fruit and rich. Not bitter. I used in my espresso machine — 18g, 2 oz pour, about 25 seconds.
Simply melted after taking that first smell of the Cortez Primo. Delicious blend, and looking forward to buying again and trying more blends! This will likely be the staple in our home.
We love the rich, full flavor of Cortez Primo!! This is fmy irst order placed on the web. Process was easy and prompt. Now we are happily enjoying Cortez on the East coast!
This is one of the most unique tasting coffees I’ve tried from Cortez. It’s super caffeinated, so if you’re sensitive to caffeine be careful! I love it! ❤️
This coffee tastes great! I was drinking one brand for 10 years but I was looking for something different so I decided to try this and I really loved it!
These are some high quality shirts! The embroidered logo on the front really gives it a luxury feel.
I have had A LOT of different coffees, I was a coffee master at Starbucks before that program went away, and of the literally hundreds of different coffees I’ve had, this easily fits into the top 5. It’s definitely not the usual coffee flavor most people are used to, but that’s a good thing. This is a great coffee for people who want something different and special.
I personally make it as espresso but it’s great however you brew it. BE AWARE: This coffee packs a HECK of a punch. There’s a lot more caffeine in this than most coffees so be ready and account for that. If you’re sensitive to caffeine start with a smaller dose than you think you should.
My personal brew procedure on flair 58X:
•25g
•1:2 ratio (25 grams ground coffee, 50 grams espresso out)
•95°C water
•23 seconds pull
Ordered coffee beans somewhere else to save some money and soon realized we had made a mistake. Received our order of Primo a couple of days ago and it is great. Smooth going down and no bitter aftertaste. Thx.
