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.

    This Is Delish

    This roast has definitely been one of my fav’s. Can’t tell you why, but every time I open the bag to make a coffee it smells amazing. French Press.

    One of my favorites

    I really enjoy this one. It has a very smooth flavor. The chocolate with just a hint of cinammon is spot on. I find these to be quite forgiving for an amateur like myself. I've made some changes dialing things in, but it's tasted very good every time.

    Full flavored, no bitterness

    I mostly enjoy drinking a rotating selection of coffees ranging from light to dark roasts with a bias towards med to dark. Right now I have 10-12 selections in my rotation, and I typically don’t repeat ordering the same one.

    However,the Dune Santarossa is the exception to my usual pattern of not repeating. The reason why is that it’s very smooth, yet full flavored, some chocolate. Very satisfying dark roast with no bitterness.

    Highly recommended!

    It was love at first sniff!

    From the moment we opened the bag we knew it was a good fit! Great full bodied and flavorful cup. Even my finicky husband likes it. Two thumbs up!
