Good coffee, doing good.

The coffee in this bag - like all our coffees - is one of the highest quality and purchased with respect for farmers. By working together and paying the prices their premium coffee deserves, we're helping improve the lives of those farmers and their communities.

Only 3% of coffee grown around the world is good enough to make it into a bag of Starbucks coffee. And it's always 100% Arabica.

Our Dark Roasts:
We roast coffees darker to achieve specific flavors - from subtle notes of caramelized sugar to a bold smoky taste. It takes special beans to go this dark. Anything other than dense, high-grown Arabica beans will turn to ash and leave an unpleasant finish. But when a good bean meets a skilled roaster, ah, that's something to be reckoned with.

French Roast:
French is all about the roast. It's our darkest and boldest and not for the faint of heart. We roast the beans to their edge for a singular smoky flavor. And that's the French Roast calling card. Normally you wouldn't expect such a bang from a coffee with low acidity and virtually no body, but this is no ordinary brew. It's a delectably roasty cup, intense and uncompromising.

Recipe for Great Coffee:
Use cold, filtered water and a clean machine.

Grind Beans Just Before Brewing:
- Coarse for coffee press;
- Medium for automatic drip.

Measure 2 tbsp (10 g) ground coffee for every 6 fl oz (180 ml) water.

Enjoy With:
A savory onion bagel with cream cheese, chives and some lox.
