Stellar Taste

The coffee was absolutely delicious; smooth, rich, and without that odd buttery aftertaste you sometimes get elsewhere. What truly sets it apart is knowing that my purchase supports a meaningful cause. That alone makes it taste ten times better than anything from a commercial chain. I’ll be coming back for more soon!

Sipi Falls

Great taste!

I made this coffee with a Hario V60. coffee / RO water ratio of 27g coffee and 500g water 30sec bloom. Came out fantastic. I was a little iffy about the fruit notes but was pleasantly surprised.

Not your average cup of coffee! This is yet another top bean/blend from Pneuma!!! I could drink Engeya cup after cup! Such rich, yet smooth flavor. Not a single bit of bitter or acidic aftertaste that you get with most big name brand coffees.

If you have not tried Pneuma yet, don’t delay any longer. The only negative is that It will forever ruin every other coffee you try.

What are you waiting for? Give It a try! You can thank me later.

I consider myself to be somewhat of a coffee snob and the best cup of coffee isn’t Starbucks (yuck) or Biggby or anyother big name brewer. We find GREAT whole bean coffee then grind and slow brew it at our home. The worst part of going on vacation is not having our home coffee. When I was introduced to the Embogo coffee, I was skeptical it would rise to the level of our favorite Nicarauguan coffee, but I was shocked, not only was the quality and smoothness of the coffee on par with our current favorite, the depth in flavor was superior. Great cause and even better coffee. Highly recommend!

Embogo

Very good for Decaf

I had to switch to decaf coffee because of blood pressure, and this is one of the best decaf coffees I've tried. I would very much rather have regular coffee, but this is the best alternative to that I can find.

Nice to have all year round

Makes you feel special that you don't need to wait til October to have something pumpkin spice. The aroma alone is invigorating and the is the gentle flavor at the end of each sip. I quite enjoy it.

Great gift

I have enjoyed this so I bought a bag for a friend. That was 5 friends ago. Now they all tell me they thought it was great. So it was not just me. Good chocolate coffee.

Engeya

Unique note

This surprised me seriously. Such a nice fruit accent that comes as the finishing flavor in every sip. Another good natural flavored coffee. Thank you Pneuma.

Return Customer for a reason

I have tried all of the coffees and this is my favorite one. Just natural coffee flavor even without creamer or anything. I get it everytime, Oh and the Sipi, Oh and the Engeya...

Perfect holiday gifts

I can't wait to get these for my family this year! I have tried all of these coffees and love them! I am sure my family will enjoy them as much as I do.

Pneuma Java Christmas 8 oz Special (Five 8oz Ground)

Great from start to finish

This was the first coffee I tried and is still one of my favorite. If you like dark roasts and bold flavors, this is the coffee for you! It's the perfect wake up coffee and is soooo good. You really must try this one!

Mukisa

Another great taste

I have been trying all these flavors recently and found this one to be absolutely amazing. This is a great coffee for a relaxing evening at home. Definitely give this one a try!

Fruity flavors!

This is definitely one of the fruity ones! It's got a very unique flavor that works great with sweet creamers.

Worth a try

This is my second favorite of the coffees. When I ran out of Engeya, I tried this one. I was pleasantly surprised with this one and found that I enjoyed it very much.
