About this item
- BEHIND THE BLEND: Characterized by its deep structure and full-body, Buena Vista's Latin American roots yield a dark chocolate savor with a caramelized sweetness. Its smooth and consistent profile also makes it a very dynamic and adaptable blend that holds up well to just about every brewing device out there. So if you like waking up to a darker, richer flavor, look no further; Buena Vista will give you a dessert first mentality with the tasting notes of Chocolate, Red Apple, and Maple.
- FRESHLY ROASTED: Our coffee is small-batch roasted in-house daily out of our hometown of Santa Cruz, California, using a combination of vintage-style roasters and a state-of-the-art roaster, followed by a preservation technique that ensures its instant freshness just for you.
- FARM LEVEL INITIATIVE: Our commitment to positively impact the communities we partner with at origin, ranging from environmentally sustainable growing practices, sourcing directly from farmers, preserving heirloom varieties, and paying fair wages.
- VERVE COFFEE ROASTERS: From seed to cup, we seek ways to uplift each other from our commitment to ethical sourcing practices to delivering a product that makes for perfect mornings ahead. Welcome to Verve - we craft the future of coffee.
- HOW TO BREW: Add one packet into your mug with 10 oz. of hot or cold liquid (water, milk, or milk alternative), give it a good stir, and drink up. Discover the expiration dates conveniently located on the bottom of the package for an optimal taste experience and product freshness at its best.

First one I tried (Bronson) was great, but this one (Buena Vista) was a flat, shiny, coffee shard that was difficult to dissolve and became sticky. I called Amazon and my money was refunded (y'all better start calling instead of just letting them keep your money), but I won't buy this from Amazon again. My guess is that maybe Amazon isn’t storing it properly or something, but this is unacceptable. Verve is going to ruin their reputation if they don't do something about this. Jus' sayin'...
