More Details

Roast Level: French
A French roast is a deeply dark and robust coffee roast known for its intense flavor and smoky undertones. Achieved through extended high-temperature roasting, the beans are transformed into a glossy, nearly black shade with a rich, oily surface. With low acidity and a bitter-sweet taste, this roast offers notes of dark chocolate and caramel, making it ideal for those seeking a full-bodied and bold coffee experience. Its versatility allows it to shine in various brewing methods, including espresso and drip coffee, and it pairs well with milk and other additives, making it a popular choice for indulgent specialty beverages like cappuccinos and lattes.
Bean Source Country: International Blend
International blend coffee refers to a blend of coffee beans sourced from different regions or countries worldwide. International blends combine beans with distinct flavor profiles and characteristics, resulting in a harmonious and complex cup of coffee. The quality of an international blend depends on the expertise of the coffee roaster, who carefully selects and combines beans to achieve a specific flavor and balance. Roasters who excel in crafting international blends have a deep understanding of the different growing regions, varietals, and processing methods.
Organic
Organic coffee is produced without synthetic chemicals, such as pesticides, herbicides, and artificial fertilizers. Instead, organic coffee farmers rely on natural and sustainable agricultural practices like crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control. To be labeled as organic, coffee must meet strict regulations and certification criteria set by governing bodies, such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or the European Union (EU). Organic coffee not only supports environmental sustainability but may also offer health benefits, as it contains fewer chemical residues than conventionally grown coffee.
Fair trade
Fair-trade coffee refers to coffee beans that are produced, traded, and sold following a set of ethical and social standards designed to ensure fair treatment of farmers and workers in the coffee industry. Fair Trade organizations work to create a more equitable global trade model by prioritizing the well-being of small-scale coffee producers and farm workers, primarily in developing countries.
