STYLISH PRESENTATION AND AN ENJOYABLE WIDE ASSORTMENT !
I primarily was attracted to the 'Coffee Trunk of Samplers' for my wife (Peggy), as she is a devout Coffee Aficionado. (I generally like my coffee to be strong enough to float an iron wedge)....However, I was intrigued by the variety of coffee flavors listed, and it had a 'Holiday' feel to it....(and it is 'The Holiday Season'!)The selection quality will be addressed in further updates--as each re-seal-able foil container provides enough to supply one pot, and with 20 coffees to choose from, well....it`s gonna take a little while!However, some things were just too good to not review from the get-go!First; PRESENTATION: In a word; Beautiful. In a lot of words; The selection comes attractively cased in it`s own little carry trunk (see pics)...The Coffee Trunk is a stiff cardboard, but feels quite sturdy (hey--it`s just coffee , y`know--it doesn`t weigh all that much) and has a metal turn latch that secures the lid very well. There are also carry straps on either side for hefting. This makes for a stylish presentation/storage that one could easily find further use for after the coffee selection within is played out. Me-being-me; I like that aspect of the product--it gives you a bit of lasting 'extra' value for the purchase! I can foresee my wife using this 'Coffee Trunk' to transport her coffees and teas for our vacations, or simply keeping it re-stocked in the kitchen.The lid, when opened, reveals the 20 assorted packs of Specialty Flavor Coffee. I won`t belabor the list--as it is already made available in the Product Details .I will, at this point, make 2 slight criticisms and 2 'Fix `Em' Suggestions to either the makers, or to you, the consumer.....1: The lid does not stay open when you open it. It falls right back down, requiring you to hold it or block it open manually...This is the reason that Peg`s coffee mug is in the pics--I had to have something to prop the lid in order to photograph the interior. I used Peg`s mug (Not Available with your purchase!) and the heartfelt 'THANK YOU' card included from 'Coffee Beanery' (Family Owned and Established 1976!) to prop the lid for the pics.SUGGESTION; Either alter the tilt of the lid, or provide a wedge for the lid to keep it open. It would make it easier to select from the assortment if the lid did not keep falling down.2: The assortment is, as stated; intriguing.....However, you have to pick through the individual packets to find what you want, with no actual guide.SUGGESTION: It would be helpful to have a printed card listing the coffees either stuck on the underside of the lid, or simply in the box to choose at a glance, rather than having to pull packs of coffee out to read each flavor packet contents.These are slight complaints considering the obvious care and incentive that COFFEE BEANERY put into the 'Coffee Trunk' .....along with the coffee!I ( and Peg, of course!) would call this a very well-worthwhile purchase, either as a stylish gift idea...or as just a neat way to make your coffee-loving self happy!UPDATE: Dec. 21, 2022.... Peg and I just completed our exploration of the assortment of coffee in this 'trunk of samplers'...... With the exception of only a couple of the offerings (which was purely a matter of personal tastes) we found each one we tried to be quite delicious. My wife is a far greater coffee-drinker than I, and from my perspective, this was a lot of fun, with some new taste to try out every time.

I'm so impressed
This is a really great gift for the adventurous coffee aficionado. It seems like most gift baskets are 75% padding in a giant basket, with very little product. The coffee trunk of samplers is the opposite. There isn't much packaging filler inside of the faux leather box since there are 20 eight-cup sampler bags inside. The box is approximately 11.5" L x 7.25" W x 5.25"H. (My picture shows the contents without stuffing and without the two bags that I used.) The box is nice enough to be reused.The first flavor that my friend and I tried was the Chocolate Raspberry flavor. It is a nice mellow medium roast that has a very pleasant raspberry and faint chocolate scent when you open the bag. It brews up tasting like a regular good quality coffee, but with a delicate raspberry aftertaste. Surprisingly, we both liked it enough to have a second round even though I am not usually a fan of fruit flavors with my coffee. It stands up well to milk and sugar.The second flavor I tried on my own, Swiss Mocha Almond. This was fantastic. You start with a good nutty flavor and after brewing a heavenly, almost buttery scent emanates from the brew. It was so good that I drank it BLACK. This is important to note since I almost always take milk and sugar in my coffee.Is the coffee trunk of samplers worth $67.95? I would say "Yes" since it breaks down to being $3.40 for each 8-cup bag. Great way to get an idea of the breadth of The Coffee Beanery's offerings. I highly recommend and look forward to trying some more. Since I'm the only one in my household who drinks coffee, this set will keep me occupied for awhile. :)

Fancy coffee in a fancy trunk - very nice!
12/14/2022: Coffee Trunk of Samplers | Coffee Gift basket | Coffee BeaneryThis is a very nice sampler of lots of different coffees (20 different flavors, to be exact). The way it's presented in the trunk is very nice. It would be a very good gift for coffee lovers.I ordered this with the intention of taking it to work and sharing with all of my coworkers (something to cheer people up on dreary december days). I am not personally a coffee drinker, but my coworkers seem to like the ones they've tried a lot. There is something for everyone, and it has made lots of people happy!I'm not sure what else to say about this that other reviewers haven't already said. It is pretty expensive, but you do get a lot for your money and it's in a really nice "trunk" that you could use for other things once you've used up all the coffee. I think it's a good value if you like fancy coffees.I wish I could give it 4.5 stars. I reserve 5 stars for things that I would want to order again, and at this price point (currently 67.95) I just don't see that happening. So, 4 stars it is. I do recommend this to anyone who likes flavored coffees (or anyone who wants to give a nice gift to someone else who likes flavored coffees).
