## Customer feedback

Customer feedback describes a strong, rich taste and smooth texture, with positive comments about coffee quality, flavour and value. Aroma reactions are mixed, including both appreciation of a fresh scent and reports of a chemical smell. The positive overall rating distribution is encouraging but does not establish which aroma or flavour experience an individual buyer will have. The described strong dark-roast profile may suit buyers seeking intensity, while those sensitive to aroma may weigh the mixed reports.
