Our take on the Starbucks Espresso Roast Whole Coffee Beans

Starbucks Espresso Roast is a dark, multi-region whole bean blend first created in 1975 and still the base for the chain's espresso drinks. It is roasted for a bold, caramelly sweetness with molasses notes, and it holds up both as straight espresso and with milk. The 12 oz bag suits espresso drinkers who want a familiar, consistent dark roast at home. Against single-origin and lighter specialty roasts it trades nuance for punch and reliability, and its long-running recipe is what regulars count on.

Questions and answers

Is this the same coffee used in Starbucks stores?
Yes. It is the multi-region blend Starbucks uses as the base for its handcrafted espresso drinks, and the recipe has not changed since 1975.
Is it good for espresso machines?
It is roasted for espresso and produces a bold shot with caramelly sweetness. It also works in drip machines, French presses and iced coffee.
Do I need a grinder?
These are whole beans, so you need a grinder for espresso or drip. Grinding fresh gives the best flavor.

Espresso Roast is darker and more intense, built for espresso and milk drinks. Pike Place is a smoother medium roast aimed at everyday drip coffee.

Keep them in an airtight container away from light and heat. Whole beans stay fresher longer than ground coffee.
