VERY DARK ROAST (12oz bag)
All sailors acknowledge and many fear the term but only a few know how The Goat Locker came to be. By tradition, all sailors and officers (including the Commanding Officer) are required to request permission before entering The Goat Locker. The tradition stands with rare exception even today.
Wise and gritty Chiefs, the keepers of knowledge, run the Navy with an iron fist, because young American lives are on the line.
For this, we raise a toast to you, "Old Goat.” Your well earned and feared reputation still sends chills down the spines of junior officers and Sailors alike.
The darkest roast we offer, we chose our Costa Rican bean for this coffee. Why the Costa Rican? It keeps its unmistakable character and quality, even when roasted extra dark, giving this coffee a slightly smoky, toffee-like flavor. Ours is a Strictly Hard Bean European Preparation (SHB-EP), and its hardness and volcanic origins are complemented by the French roast.
Characteristics: Bold / Slightly smoky / Toffee-like
Primary origins: Costa Rica

Very smooth and dark blend. It’s a favorite. Off the charts better than what I was buying. When I finish up this bag, I will be getting into the Bonefrog medium roast, which I bought at the same time, to see what it offers.

I have purchased many different veterans owned bags of coffee from Texas to Florida to many other states. I happen to read a book and in it they mentioned Goatlocker coffee as being really good, so took a chance and purchased a bag of beans. Tried every way I could to mess it up and it NEVER turned out bitter or with an acid after taste. I learned to drink coffee working in fab shops, offshore platforms and work boats. I have now found my favorite coffee of all times. Bonefrog GoatLocker is literally the best coffee I have ever drank!
