Hi there,
I've got a friend who loves coffee. His birthday is this weekend and I want to get him some good coffee beans. I'm not a coffee lover myself so don't know which place has the best beans. Can anyone recommend me some good beans? :D

standard well known good roasters in korea
you can actually get a few of these at costco in korea. but not guarantees on freshness. make sure the roast dates on any coffee you buy are fresh (within 2 weeks)
I'm gonna shill for my friend but https://www.instagram.com/groovecoffeeroasters/ He is extremely on top of where he gets his beans, supplied a few reputable breweries for their coffee stouts and all of my friends who buy from him have been happy. Probably decent prices too, feel free to just message in English and ask prices.

coffee libre
Everyone here recommended Coffee Libre and I absolutely agree with it
It may seem expensive but when you calculate the per gram price it’s about the same as Starbucks (a very below average tasting coffee haha) so it’s worth it IMO

There are so many good roasters these days. Are you buying online or in shop? If the latter, what area is convenient for you?

Coffee tastes are very subjective. What I find delicious others may find far too strong and bitter. I expect you will get a large range of opinions on what is best.
Perhaps sharing how you like your coffee to taste would help ppl point you to the place best suited for your tastes.
How much does 500g of Coffee average in Seoul? I come from Australia, and here it's very cheap for the quality, but I imagine it'll be quite expensive in Korea. Only say this since I have got a nice machine now, but didn't have one back when I first lived in Seoul. I'm guessing it's around 20,000W per 500g for good value versus quality stuff?

Cheers! Costco selling decent beans is a good idea.
Pomellow Bean near Gongdeok St. has some incredible beans. Highly recommended.
