Is this coffee light or dark roast?

It is a light-to-medium roast. The cup is smooth and mild rather than dark and smoky.

Do I need a grinder for this coffee?

Yes. It is sold as whole bean, so you need a burr or blade grinder, or ask a store to grind it for you.

Yes. The beans are certified organic, Fair Trade and kosher.

It is gentler and more acidic than the brand's dark roasts, which suit people who want a heavier, bolder cup.

It works well in drip machines, pour-over and French press. Its mild profile is less suited to espresso, where a darker roast gives more body.
