Understanding roast levels

Light-Medium

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

Medium

Best for: those that enjoy caramelized sugars and a smooth cup.

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.

    Almost there!

    I love the name of this coffee brand, let’s get that out of the way first. And they sent me a cool sticker! This is a solid brew, but there’s just an olfactory hit of some under-roasted beans in the mix when the water is introduced. Just something smells a bit harsh. And in fact, the beans are not uniformly colored—there is maybe 30% distinctly lighter beans in the bag. So I’m not sure what’s going on here. But I like the cup well enough and will definitely go through the bag.

    Nicely roasted, chocolate, nutty and smoky

    Balance of roast level that doesn’t cover up the flavor of the beans.

    A good cup of coffee, but not noteworthy. My first coffee , Feast - Milk & Honey, was in my view exceptional by comparison.

    …not to suggest Tips up wasn’t good, just a distant second.
