Seasonal Espresso Blend - Dark Roast

The Flavour Profile

Some coffees ask you to meet them halfway. This one doesn't. Our Seasonal Dark Roast espresso blend is bold, unapologetic, and deeply satisfying — a full-bodied dark roast with rich dark chocolate at its core, smooth caramel sweetness running underneath, and just enough acidity to keep every sip alive and interesting. 

The body is full and weighty — substantial without being harsh, warming without being heavy. It coats the palate with a richness that lingers, and the finish is long, smooth, and deeply chocolatey.

Drinking it black? This is where the dark roast really earns its reputation. Pull it as an espresso and you'll get intense dark chocolate, a hint of caramel sweetness, and a bold, clean finish. As a long black or Americano, it opens up beautifully — the acidity brightens, and the depth becomes even more apparent. Best brewed as espresso, stovetop, or cafetière for black drinkers who want the full experience.

Drinking it with milk? Exceptional. The full body holds up beautifully under steamed milk — the dark chocolate note becomes almost velvety, the caramel sweetness deepens, and you're left with a flat white, latte or cappuccino that genuinely delivers. This is the blend that turns a good milk drink into a great one.
