Published reviews for Elder's Fathom.
Wonderfully flavorful
I'm truly enjoying the medium roasts from Geek Grind. Some other companies medium roasts just end up tasting like slightly caffeinated water. But GG medium roast coffees have the flavor and richness that would please dark roast lovers like myself.
Perfect morning brew
This is one of my favorite coffees, and it's the perfect morning blend. It's light and hazelnutty, truly delightful! I've even added a smidge to hot chocolate to make mochas, so good!
In the rotation
This is one is in my alternating rotation to order only because I don't have enough to order it every time I order. It is very good.
