Chocolaty & Sweet

Necessary's Colombia has something for everyone. We taste chocolate-covered almonds, but also a sweet, tart grapefruit note.

Understanding roast levels

Roast level affects both flavor and body. Here's what to expect from each.

Light

Best for: those that prize delicate flavors and a tea-like feel above intensity.

Light-Medium

Best for: those that enjoy juicy acidity and gently caramelized sugars.

Medium

Best for: those that enjoy balance and classic flavors like cocoa and nuts.

Medium-Dark

Best for: those looking for classic coffee flavors with a kiss of roast.

Dark

Best for: those that love intense, smoky flavor and a full body above all else.

Trade Tip

Roasters don’t always agree on roast level — one roaster’s dark might look the same as another’s medium. We taste and assign every coffee our own roast level, so your matches stay consistent no matter who roasted them.

    Excellent taste!

    This is one of my favorite coffees on Trade. It has that classic Colombian flavor, and I’ve ordered it multiple times. If you are looking for a straight forward coffee that tastes like coffee without all the fruitiness, then this coffee is for you. Tastes great in my French press, Technivorm and Aeropress!
