At once light and bright, yet smooth and sweet as milk chocolate. We're picking up a juicy berry acidity and a nutty aftertaste.

Light-Medium roast

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.

    Smooth and rich

    Play Nice is a smooth, rich coffee perfect for an afternoon pour over. It would pair nicely with a piece of dark chocolate and a classic English novel. No bitterness, no sharpness- just a perfectly balanced companion.
