Our blends and espresso roasts taste best if you start using the coffee around 12 days after it is roasted (check the roast date stamp on every bag), and finish it up in around 2 or 3 weeks. We enjoy our filter roasts from a few days after they are roasted. Store your coffee away from light and heat, and keep the bag sealed tight.
