First and foremost, excellent customer service. I would recommend buying from Coffee Bean Corral.
On to the review: the finished product was enjoyed and liked by all, so I must be doing something right. Getting a consistent roast, however, was difficult for me.
I give the beans a 3 star rating for two reasons. Firstly, the consistency of the coffee beans was below my expectations. Granted, I am not very experienced, but this product was far more variable in consistency than any other beans I have purchased as there were many different sizes of beans, some were black, many were split etc...
Secondly, this was very difficult for me to roast. I roast manually and rely on sight, smell, and sound. The first and second cracks were very subtle and difficult to hear, as if only a few beans were cracking. On the other hand, the Costa Rican that I have roasted (same batch size, same method, same ambient temp) had what I would call a "rolling crack"...like popcorn; Bali Blue Moon did not do that.
Again, great customer service.
