Get a shot of caffeine to start your day off right with Lavazza’s Espresso beans. The 100% Arabica medium-roast beans are rich and feature a floral and fruity flavor. The beans are perfect for the espresso machine, drip coffee machine, French press, pour over, Moka, or cold brew. Each bag has 2.2 pounds of beans.

Second on our best Costco coffee list is from Starbucks, with their Organic Winter Blend coffee. Though this roast may not be available all year round, there is still a large fanbase for the blend. The medium roast beans are from Latin America and Asia, and create a nutty and earthy flavor in the coffee. 

17. Piñon Coffee, Medium Roast

Since Piñon’s coffee is harder to find in Costco stores, it ranks slightly lower on the list. But don’t discount the rich flavor of Piñon, as they produce their coffee from high-altitude Arabica beans. Piñon is also New Mexico’s largest coffee roaster, so you might have better luck in a New Mexico Costco location. Either way, if you find Piñon in your local Costco, you might want to pick up a bag. 

16. Mayorga Organic Cubano Decaf Coffee

Each bag of whole beans is two pounds, so you can enjoy seemingly endless cups.

  1. Why has Costco’s whole bean decaf disappeared for a few years? I grind my own coffee and blend regular and decaf beans in my grinder. I have to go to Trader Joe’s for decaf beans.
    Also, another “long gone” favorite was Costco/Kirkland American Blue Cheese, which I found to be very good, especially if it stayed stored in the refrigerator for several months while the mold grew and enhanced the flavor/texture. Is it ever returning?

    1. While we can’t quite jump on that blue cheese bandwagon with you, (not fans of moldy cheese), we definitely feel your pain on the decaf coffee. TJ’s is a pretty decent replacement, though.

  2. What 10 items not to buy at Costco & why. That link led to this coffee rating article.

    What gives?
