Trader Joe’s Coffee: Fair Trade Organic Bolivian Blend
Trader Joe's Bolivian Blend Coffee & our French Press
Are you looking to try a new coffee at Trader Joe’s? We are currently drinking a fantastic coffee that we have not tried before. Introducing: Trader Joe’s Fair Trade Organic Bolivian Blend
We have been enjoying this coffee for about a month now, and we still like it!
This is unfortunately not always the case. Many times we will enjoy a sample cup of coffee at Trader Joe’s, and then enjoy the coffee for a few days, but then… blah! The coffee just sorta tastes funny and we eventually wind up bringing it into the office for everyone to try there. We admit that our tastes favor tea over coffee and that we are tea drinkers the majority of the time, so the fact that we sometimes “go off” coffee should be noted.
We should also note that this is a “Medium Dark Roasted” Coffee. We seem to gravitate towards the medium and lighter roasted coffees. We feel like many times Dark Roasted coffee tastes a bit “burned” – OK we know it is not burned, but they can be soo dark that it seems that way when you are drinking it. Maybe it is like eating a steak? We prefer a steak cooked rare or medium rare instead of well done and like to drink our coffee the same way.
Having said all that, we are enjoying this Trader Joe’s Bolivian Blend a lot. We make it in our French press coffee maker and serve it up both warm and cold.
We are enjoying making a sorta/ mock Trader Joe’s Latte by heating up some milk in a pan on the stove and whisking up some foam to top our coffee. While not the stuff you get in those fancy coffee bars, we are enjoying the fun of making the “foamy” part.
We are even experimenting to jazz up our coffee drinks with some new (coffee bar style) flavors such as adding vanilla to the milk or sprinkling some cinnamon and sugar on top. Trader Joe’s has some chocolate syrup that we also want to try so that we can make a Trader Joe’s Mocha! (look out whipped cream!!)

Valuable info. Lucky me I found your site by accident, I bookmarked it.
I live in a very rural area, not near TJ at all. But every time I go to Portland, Oregon, I get this coffee. Been buying it for years and grind it for each pot. Great coffee! Dark roast IS burnt coffee. Ask a brewer.
Oh, yeah! Fab w/ some Moo squirted in it!
