Big Bang: A Super Natural Celebration

Alfred Peet has been described as the 'Big Bang' of the craft coffee movement for transforming what Americans have come to expect from the flavor, body, and depth of their coffee. Created for Peet's 50th anniversary, this signature blend celebrates Mr. Peet's legacy by expanding the horizon of what coffee can be with a vibrant, full-flavored, and boldly original taste. Crafted with Latin American and East African beans, including some of the same premium coffees as the Major Dickason's blend, Big Bang offers a new and exciting twist on an old favorite by adding the sweet and aromatic citrus notes of Ethiopian Super Natural. Whole beans ensure you can enjoy the best flavor possible by grinding at home immediately before use.


The Pursuit of Perfection Alfred Peet was renowned for achieving perfection through his blends. His secret? Bringing together coffees so exceptional, each could stand on its own. For unparalleled complexity and nuance, look no further than our signature blends.	Roasted by Hand We use our five senses—not computers—to unlock each bean’s flavor potential. Our roasters are masters of their craft, fine-tuning the nuances of each blend and single-origin they roast.	Always Fresh. Never Stale. We mark every bag of Peet’s with a roast date so you know exactly when it was roasted. We hold ourselves to higher freshness standards than others because we believe coffee doesn’t get better with age, it gets stale.

Great coffee

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2024

Flavor Name: Major Dickason'sSize: 10.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I bought Peet's Coffee, Major Dickenson's Blend Whole Bean Coffee - 10.5 Ounce Bag. My package was delivered from Amazon quickly and in good condition. The beans were fresh and smelled great when the bag was opened. I still grind my beans and use a Melita pour over so call me a crazy old coffee lady. I find Peet's Major Dickenson's to be a good dark, somewhat robust blend with slight chocolate notes. It holds up well to mixing with hot milk for a cafe latte in the morning. This is my go to coffee blend when time constraints don't force me to use my K cup machine. Only down side is that you have to grind these beans but for me that is part of morning coffee bliss.

Flavor Name: Dark RoastSize: 2 Pound (Pack of 2)Verified Purchase

Wow! The double pack I received from this seller were extremely FRESH!!!!! I seen the oil glistening on the beans but because I have not been grinding my own beans for too long, I had no clue that the freshest coffee beans had a shine to them like these did.
I did not know Peet's/Major Dickison coffee could taste any better than it already does until I got this double pack delivered, and the beans were shiny. The taste was even better!!!!
By the time we were about halfway through the 2nd bag, the beans had lost their shine and although it was still great coffee, it affected the taste.
I came back to this seller to order more, unfortunately, they were out of stock so I found some that said Sold by Amazon, but the beans were dull with no shine on them at all.. The coffee was still delicious but there was a big difference in the taste and small.
I always assumed all the bags of coffee came from the same warehouse, same pallet, as the ones Amazon sells, even tho Amazon was not the seller of this double pack. Maybe they do and I just got lucky and got a fresh pack? I don't know but I am about to order more from this seller and keep my fingers crossed that I get some beans that are shiny/fresh.

best price and best taste

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2024

Flavor Name: French RoastSize: 1.13 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Ok, whoever you are reading this - we are total strangers but Im going to give you some really good advise.... YOU MUST buy this brand and make sure its French Roast and whole bean is always best. I like to toast the beans in a pan for a bout 5 min stiring them around then cool them off and put in a jar, grind right before making your coffee and you will see this is litreally the best tasting coffee you have ever had in your life. Once I tried this brand I have never used anything else. Petes is expensive so finding the lowest priced seller is imporant and this is the lowest price I have ever found yet its fresh and perfect quality. Love it so much we buy again and again.

Full Body, Dark Roast, Great Taste

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2024

Flavor Name: Major Dickason'sSize: 10.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

This is my first go to beans that I grind individual batch with handcrank burr grinder and use it with Black & Decker Brew n Go to make one 12oz cup. My second choice would be Starbucks espresso roast. Surprisingly, I used to buy Starbucks french roast but ever since I tried this a few years ago, it's way too weak compare to this. I never buy ground, only whole beans.

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2024

Flavor Name: Major Dickason'sSize: 1.13 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

First: getting beans from Amazon probably isn't the best for getting fresh beans. My bag had a best by date of 05/2024, which I assume means it was packed last year. Nevertheless, I made an americano from my Tchibo coffee maker and it's pretty dang good. Smooth, rich flavor. Might be my go-to from now on.

Terrific but too expensive

Reviewed in Canada on May 2, 2018

Flavor Name: Major Dickason'sSize: 1 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I I fell in love with Peets when I lived in California. Major Dickinson’s is their flagship roast. Not my favourite (I love their French and Selowessi) but Major Dickinson’s is still very good. But it’s too expensive here. I highly recommend it when Amazon puts it on sale. That’s when I bought mine. Otherwise it’s not worth the price (to me) even though it is very good.
