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 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.

    one of my favorites!

    These beans pulled a great shot on my Breville espresso machine! They had a smooth, rich flavor with a nice crema, and were easy to dial in. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a balanced, delicious espresso at home!

    Pleasing versatile beans

    I make espresso, cappuccino’s, and I press coffee.

    This is in my top 3 coffees from Trade!

    Don’t know if I’d call it 1,2 or 3, but it’s in the group!
