Just had my first cup of the Hawaiians blend and it was very smooth and flavourful. Can’t wait to try the others!

I am a dedicated and very loyal roasted bean customer. Been with them for years and if you are not buying your roasted coffee beans from them, you are missing an amazing gift. The products are by far above what I pay. The service is a 12 on a 1 to 10. If you indulge yourself with some of the higher quality and cost items, you will never go back to wherever you were. Absolutely Amazing. I don't rave often, but, this company and their products stand above all.

We recently tried the gourmet blend and it was fantastic. A nice blend of South American coffee that just works so well. We've been ordering from Gold Star for over 2 years and have been 100% satisfied with the coffee and the customer service. We never buy from anywhere else. Their product is that good.

As a coffee lover, moving to Canada from Europe made it difficult to adjust to the coffee here. I tried several different brands, but nothing came close to the rich, authentic flavors I was used to. Then I found Gold Star Coffee, and everything changed. Its taste rivals, and even surpasses, the coffee I enjoyed back in Europe. It truly is the world’s best coffee.

Ordered while watching East vs West Arm wrestling # 14. Website and checkout was super easy. As a fan of E vs W, it's great to see Gold Star as a sponsor! I'll leave a separate review upon tasting the coffee!<br>Thanks Gold Star!

Great staff. Evan was very knowledgeable about his coffee offerings. Kinda like a sommelier but for coffee. If you haven't tried their coffee before, you will not be disappointed.

Les commandes arrivent rapidement. La communication est excellente. Par exemple, je commande mon café un lundi, et on m'avise qu'il sera torréfié le lendemain. le Sumatra Mandheling et le Jamaican Blue Mountain sont mes favoris.

Excellent, excellent coffee! I was so impressed with how quickly they fulfill their orders...roasted and packed and shipped the same day. 100% satisfaction after multiple orders and the coffee is great. Cheers to East vs West Armwrestling for having them as a sponsor which led to a very satisfied Gold Star customer.

In one word - AMAZING!<br>Placed my order of coffee beans on Thursday around 12 pm, they were roasted the same day and delivered the day after.<br>Everything was perfect, roast level is very precise, easy and simple process to order, super fast delivery, good selection of coffee beans.<br>If they they keep they coffee reasonably priced and maintain the same level of service, I won't buy coffee anywhere else.

After the pandemic my local coffee roaster that I had used for 15 years closed shop. I did search for just the right coffee for me and then I happened on Gold Star's website. Bingo!!! My coffee search came to an end and since then I have been a regular customer. The service is super fast. Coffee beans are immediately roasted and shipped. Quality has always remained the same and all of my guests rave about my coffee - thank you Gold Star Coffee.

Excellent coffees with great crema.<br>Have tried 4 different beans so far and looking forward to the next batch. The beans are very fresh, have good aroma and produce a healthy amount of crema.<br>Shipping was very quick as well (shipped same day, arrived next day).

It’s uncommon for 5 star reviews to be so unanimous but GS absolutely lives up to it. I drive outta my way and it’s always worth it. Twice the beans for half the cost and easily twice as good!<br><br>I stick to espresso and like a medium roast for what that’s worth.

I purchased coffee from them for the first time and this is honestly some of the best coffee I've ever had. I will be returning to purchase more from them. They truly know their coffee and how to roast them to perfection.

This is my first time purchasing from Gold Star. Beans are great but the most impressive part is I received my beans in less than 24 hours and in the package a note was included stating that my beans were roasted just a few days ago. The whole experience was amazing and will definitely buy again

This was my first order from Gold Star. I have never had such fantastic customer service and the one day delivery was over the top. A minor price difference from other brands and orders but not for the same quality. I will be ordering from them again.

Many optional ways to order. Delivery exceptional. Will try some of their other Coffees I am looking to explore.

I have been a Goldstar Coffee customer for a few years. I love the international coffee selections, the quality of the beans and roast is excellent. If there's a problem with your order Goldstar will make it right. I highly recommend this company and their coffee.<br>5+ stars for service and quality<br><br>Matt Marsden

Smooth coffee taste in the Swiss water decaf. The Hazelnut vanilla creme has good flavor but could be increased for flavour ( my personal preference) but the smooth coffee is what makes it worth while to purchase 3 bags again!

The “about us “ page made me want to give this a try! I love the story behind the science, and I was looking to find a source to get hazelnut & French vanilla flavoured beans , because they are discontinuing them off the shelves in our grocery stores here, I couldn’t believe all the flavours they have !! I ordered the 2 I was after and was not disappointed! Already placed another order with 5 different flavours coming! And can’t wait to try them! …..Hooked ;

Coffee arrived quick, extras always added to my order, and coffee is roasted recent, which makes a better tasting espresso/latte. Thanks

Decent coffee, but no WOW factor.<br><br>I am giving my honest review with no compensation—this is just my personal experience as a coffee enthusiast, not a coffee reseller or barista.<br><br>I really wanted to love this coffee roaster’s products. A friend highly recommended this company and encouraged me to try their coffee. I called Gold Star and the customer service was very friendly and promised 100% satisfaction guarantee. They did not have much info about flavor notes on their website, but the rep encouraged me to give them a try anyhow. Since they are willing to stand by their claim to be the best coffee in the world, I decided to order a variety of coffees and see for myself.<br><br>Now as you can see, there was a lot of hype and build up for me prior to my actual experience of the coffee. For the record, I ordered 5 pounds of coffee from different origins. I ordered the following: Jamaican Blue Mountain, Jamaican estate reserve, Kenyan Peaberry, Honduran Macala, Honduran yellow honey prima micro lot, and received a free half pound of café 645.<br><br>The coffees arrived very quickly after ordering and were all roasted the day they were shipped, which was impressive. They all had a pleasing aroma, though they were roasted more than I had expected—city roast is on the darker end of “medium”, so you definitely taste and smell and see the evidence of a longer roasting period.<br><br>Now that I have tried all five of these coffees several times, I have decided to give my review: these are decent/good products but with no WOW factor for me. I’m honestly sad to say it, as I really wanted to love this roasters products, but I’ve found better fresh coffee beans elsewhere at a lower price point.<br><br>Here was my approach to brewing. I used my Hario V60 pour over at 180 degrees Fahrenheit. I used a ratio of 1g coffee to 17g filtered water. I used grind sizes 8 and 12 on my Baratza Encore. (Gold Star says to grind their coffee FINE, which suggests it is closer to an espresso grind size. I tried grinding fine for some brews and also brewed some batches with the recommended pour over grind size of 12, which is a bit coarser.) I also tried some other grind sizes and experimented with different water temperatures.<br><br>I agree these coffees are very fresh, and for the most part have a bright finish with very little acidity. However, there was not a lot of distinctive flavor note coming through on any of them. I think this may be due to the city roast, which for me personally is too dark. In my opinion, if I’m going to go to the trouble of ordering a single origin coffee, a lighter roast would provide more direct contact with the intrinsic flavors of the beans and less of the “roasted flavor” that tends to make coffee beans of any origin taste more similar to each other.<br><br>I have tried a lot of coffees in my lifetime, and these are good/decent coffees, but do not provide a WOW factor. For me, the best coffee in the world should really impress me, especially when I’m paying between $20-$30 a pound.<br><br>Overall, I would say they deserve their reputation as a reputable coffee seller who sells fresh coffee, but I have a discerning palate and was looking for something that would really impress me and sadly did not find it here.

I am always searching for the very best coffee and have tried many many sources. This is among the very best, plus their customer service is superb. I recommend them to everyone.
