It's important (to me) that the roast date is plainly visible on the bag. I've had good Kicking Horse, and I've had kicking Horse that was obviously sitting around a warehouse for months. At $13-16 a pound, not worth the risk. I like Moutainview and Fratello has really stepped it up in the past couple of years. I don't live close to a P&S so I rarely buy their beans. Fratello beans I can buy in the same building I work in.
