Reunion Island’s Privateer Dark fair trade organic blend

Today Fair Trade Coffee Review is looking at another one of Reunion Island’s coffees, the Privateer Dark fair trade organic coffee.

When I opened the package, I first noticed a nice dark aroma, but also that some of the beans seemed overroasted.

It is a full dark roast, so I put that thought aside for now.

The coffee seems less full bodied and thinner than I was expecting. It had a full roasted flavor, however it was somewhat bitter, a little burnt, and slightly acidic. All things considered, it still is a reasonable cup of coffee if you are looking for a full roasted flavor with a thinner base.

Privateer definitely finishes behind Reunion Island’s French Roast fair trade coffee when compared side by side.

This might be a good coffee to brew for friends, after dinner and just sitting down for some cards.
