Sweet & Smooth

Merchant is sweet and smooth with a lovely balance of fruit flavor and smooth sweetness. We taste caramel apples and chocolate!

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.

    Disappointing Pulls: Bitter, Earthy, and Off the Mark

    I had high hopes for the Merchant blend by Timeless Coffee, especially with the promised notes of caramel apples, chocolate, and smooth sweet fruit. I spent a good amount of time dialing this in for espresso, and my puck prep is meticulous. I finally got the extraction parameters perfect on my Profitec Go and Niche Zero, pulling exactly 38g in 30 seconds.

    Unfortunately, the resulting cup was a massive letdown. Instead of the sweet and smooth profile advertised, I am getting extremely bitter, earthy, and overly tart flavors. I am genuinely unsure if I received a bad, baked batch or if the tasting notes are just completely misrepresented. Given how well calibrated my setup is right now, this bean simply is not delivering what it promised. I definitely am not enjoying this one and would not recommend it for espresso.
