- Is this coffee good for espresso?
- Yes. The dark roast and blend of Colombian, Guatemalan and Sumatran Arabica give it enough body for espresso and milk drinks. Pull shorter shots so the smoky notes don't dominate.
- How does it compare with a single-origin dark roast?
- The blend trades origin clarity for consistency and body. Expect chocolate and nuts rather than the fruit or floral notes a single-origin Colombian or Guatemalan dark roast can show.
- Is it really organic and Fair Trade?
- The bag states 100% organic and 100% Fair Trade Certified. Check the certification mark on the packaging when it arrives.
- Whole bean or ground?
- It ships whole bean only, so you need a grinder. Grind just before brewing; a medium grind suits drip and a fine grind suits espresso.
- How should I store a 2 lb bag?
- Keep it sealed, cool and away from light. Split it into smaller airtight containers and freeze the rest if you drink less than a bag a month.
- Is it gluten-free and vegan?
- Yes. Plain roasted coffee beans contain no gluten or animal products, and the listing states gluten-free and vegan.
