Dark, Smooth, and Elegantly French.
This French Roast offers a deep, caramelized sweetness with a smoky finish, characteristic of its intense roasting process. It’s a bold, full-bodied coffee that provides a rich and satisfying cup, perfect for those who enjoy a darker roast with complex flavours.
The name reflects the tastes and traditions of coffee roasters in Europe in the 1800s, where dark roasted coffee was all the rage. The Italians roasted an espresso roast that was nearly as dark as French. The Vienna roast – a staple of the Viennese cafes and pastry shops known for their great coffee – was slightly lighter than the Italian roast. But the French proudly took the honours as the darkest roast of all.
Simply put, “French roast” describes the colour of the coffee beans after roasting. French roast beans are on the darker end, usually the colour of dark chocolate. The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCA) uses the ‘Agtron Gourmet Scale’ (AGT)to categorize the colour of coffee roasts on a scale of 25 (darkest) - 95 (the lightest).
