Is this coffee really lower in acid?

VitaCup says the high-altitude Arabica beans are naturally lower in acid, which is why it markets the bag to sensitive stomachs. It is not acid-free, so very sensitive drinkers should start with a small cup.

Is it whole bean or ground?

It is whole bean, so you need a grinder. Grind just before brewing for the best flavor.

What roast level is it?

It is a dark roast with caramel and cocoa notes. Expect a fuller body and lower brightness than a light or medium roast.

Yes, the beans are USDA Organic and described as free of mycotoxins and artificial ingredients.

How should I brew it?

It works in drip, pour-over, French press and espresso. Use a medium-fine grind for drip and a coarser grind for French press.

It is an 11-ounce bag of whole beans.

Our take on the VitaCup Perfect Low Acid Coffee Whole Beans, Dark Roast Organic Coffee, 11 Ounces

VitaCup Perfect Low Acid Coffee is an 11-ounce bag of USDA Organic whole-bean Arabica, dark roasted for a rich cup with caramel and cocoa notes. The beans are grown at high altitude and marketed as naturally lower in acid, aimed at drinkers whose stomachs react to regular coffee. It is a single-origin-style specialty bag rather than a broad lineup, so it competes on gentleness and organic sourcing more than on variety. Buyers rate it well, though some find the low-acid profile flattens the brightness they expect from dark roast.
