Sweet & Smooth

Named after the DC neighborhood, big chocolate notes up front are rounded out by a pleasant little citric acidity. What a versatile coffee!

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.

    Struck a note

    I immediately liked this coffee when I received it as part of the subscription service and looked forward to brewing it again the next morning. My sense of smell and taste is diminished, so when a taste catches my attention, I don’t ignore it. I was sorry to use the last of it and ordered a two pound bag to have on hand.

    Good medium dark coffee

    The Small Planes web site had some very good pour over recipes that brought out the appeal of this coffee. I like a little fruitiness in my coffee, otherwise I could have given it more stars. But, much better than Starbucks. :)
