First Impressions

Colombian Supremo is Costco’s everyday medium roast in a 3 lb bag. Kirkland keeps the description short: full of aroma, 100 percent Colombian, with the flavor of freshly roasted coffee.

What’s in the Bag

Every bean in the bag comes from Colombia. Supremo is a size grade, not a flavor. Green coffee importers sort Colombian beans by screen size, and Supremo is the largest grade, one step above Excelso.

Costco lists the roast as medium and the bag as Kosher certified and caffeinated. Kirkland does not name the farms, the processing method or the roaster, and it publishes no roast or body scores.

Drawbacks

  • Kirkland gives almost no detail about the beans: no region inside Colombia, no process, no roast date on the listing.
  • Amazon had no seller for the Kirkland listings in September 2026, so Costco is the only reliable place to buy it.
  • Three pounds of whole bean coffee is a lot for one drinker. Keep the bag sealed between uses.

Who It Is For

Colombian Supremo suits people who want a plain medium roast from one country at a bulk price. The 3 lb bag fits an office or a household that goes through coffee fast.

Colombian Supremo is one of several Costco coffees we have tried. See our pick of the best coffee at Costco, updated as the stock changes with the seasons.

How to Brew It

Kirkland publishes no brew guide for Colombian Supremo, so match the grind to your brewer.
