French Roast is not for the timid. The hardiest of Latin American coffees withstand our darkest roast - an intensity which would burn less rugged beans. Blunt, smoky flavors are the objective of the roasting process and there's only a slight, residual acidity. Although it's a powerful blend, the body is light.

Taste French Roast beside Espresso Roast. You may discover and uncover many tastes in the Espresso and the Italian you did not realize were there when tasting them alone. French Roast is about pleasing the palates of those who enjoy the deepest, darkest, smokiest flavor.

French Roast is a combination of select Latin American beans. These beans are strong and hearty, standing up to a roast that would cause many lesser coffees to go up in flames.

People often assume that darker means fuller body. Not true! People also assume that French Roast has either more or less caffeine due to its roast, which is also untrue.

French Roast is great for dark roast die-hards, someone looking for a change, or as an interesting component to a do-it-yourself blend.
