Costco whole bean coffee thread

Thanks to Moos suggestion, I figure I would start a thread on whole bean coffees available at Costco.

From my experience, Costco usually has an excellent variety of whole bean coffees at amazing prices. Just yesterday, I nabbed a 3lb bag of Rwandan Arabica French Roast for a measly 13.99. This is a HUGE bag of whole beans - so large that it needs to be stored sideways in my coffee cabinet. I go through 1.0 - 1.25lb of coffee/week, so a big bag makes sense provided I like it.

So, post away - let us know what you are finding at your Costco warehouse, whats new, what you have tried, and reviews. Here is what I remember from my trip yesterday - they had more varieties, but I didn't catch them all:

Kirkland signature house blend 100% arabica fair-trade - dark roast - roasted by Starbucks - 2lb bag - $10.99

Kirkland Colombian Arabica dark roast - 3lb bag - $11.99

Kirkland Rwandan Arabica French roast - 3lb bag - $13.99

Kona Perry Estate 100% Kona Grade A medium roast 2lb box - $19.99

Papanicholas "Island Blend" Maui and Kona (probably 10% Kona) 2lb bag - $11.99

Starbucks Colombian Supremo - Starbucks roast (Dark) - 2.5lb bag - $19.99
