Very good coffees. Great service
I called Sea Island to seek adfvice on what coffees might suit my taste and budget best. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I chose a range of coffees which arrived promptly. Excellent coffees. Far better than any I have had in the past. Highly recommend

Unprompted review
Beans arrived poorly roasted
Beans arrived roasted. Were roasted very little, almost still green, barely past first pop. Brew was bitter, very acidic, not drinkable. Buying it was a very expensive mistake. Will not buy from sea island again.

Hi Robert, we're really sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your coffee beans on this occassion. We note down the roast Agtron level of every batch we roast, and I've had our Q grader test our roast level for our Yemeni coffees today and she's happy with the level. It's possible this coffee is just not to your taste. However, we do take this type of feedback seriously so I'll follow up via email with you to see if we can find out anything else about your order in case something went amiss.
Terrific coffee and wonderful service

Thanks for the lovely note! You picked some outstanding Geishas, hope you're enjoying them.
My shipment hasn’t even been delivered…
My shipment hasn’t even been delivered yet and is stuck in customs. DHL is reaching out to me to provide detail on the manufacturer and address which isn’t something I could possibly know. I have reached out to Sea Island asking for help providing this information so this gift I am sending my daughter can be delivered. Very poor experience for something I thought would be a fun surprise for my daughter.

Not a hint of blue mountain coffee in…
Not a hint of blue mountain coffee in there. Very disappointed.
You can "verify" what you like and claim "100%" but if you only put a fraction in then it isn't going to taste the same. So, if you can suggest a "roast level and brewing method" that actually tastes like the real deal then I'm all ears?

Hi Trevor,
Thank you for your feedback and I’m sorry to hear the coffee was not to your taste.
We can confirm that our Jamaica Blue Mountain is 100% authentic Grade 1, sourced directly from certified estates in the Blue Mountains. Flavour can vary depending on roast level and brewing method, and we would be happy to help recommend an alternative if you’d like.
Kind regards,
Sea Island Coffee

Hi Jeryl, My sincerest apologies that your order was delayed on this occassion. As of January, the US introduced some extra customs checks on coffee that were not previously required, and we have dealt with these now, but this caused a temporary delay of our US shipments. All info has been provided for your order and it is due for delivery today! I hope you enjoy your coffee and again, apologies for the delay with customs.
Excellent company
Easy ordering, subscription service if required. Not bombarded with marketing emails. Excellent product. Excellent delivery times.

Ali, delighted you enjoyed both Galapagos and Fiji. You’re absolutely right to note their distinct characters; volcanic sweetness from the Galapagos, and rich tropical depth from the Fiji.
Honestly, it’s sensational
Honestly, sensational coffee. Yemeni blend was amazing. Time to try some more
