Roasts
Unique Coffee Blends for People with Unique Taste
|
Roasting can be explained simply as "the cooking
of coffee". However, it is an art of an experienced
roaster that brings out the best taste in coffee.
Coffee beans are "green" and hard as rocks just
before they are put into the roasting unit.
RAW GREEN COFFEE
Green coffee is the seed of the coffee tree,
Coffea Arabica, which surprisingly has no "coffee"
aroma. Specialty grade beans are the largest,
cleanest and most uniform offered on the world
market.
BLOND
Denotes a flexible, delicate and smooth flavour.
The bean is of a pale cinnamon colour and has a
drier appearance. It's an excellent choice for
those who prefer a soft coffee. A blond roast
denotes a coffee with a little more caffeine than a
dark roast.
CINNAMON ROAST
The beans are roasted to a light brown color,
developing a nutty flavor with the highest acidity.
The oil remains in the bean when fresh but seeps
out as the beans age.
CITY ROAST
City Roast is roasted to a chestnut, medium
brown color. City Roast coffee is a full-bodied,
smooth, strongly aromatic coffee with a
caramel-like flavor.
FULL CITY ROAST
Full City Roast is deep brown in color with
patches of oil on surface. Full City Roast coffee
is a full-bodied coffee that is sweet and less
acidic than City Roast.
FRENCH ROAST
French Roast is very dark brown with a fully oily
surface. French Roast coffee is a full-bodied
coffee with low acidity and a bittersweet flavor.
ITALIAN ROAST
Italian Roast is nearly black in color. Italian Roast
coffee is very weak bodied with strong burnt
flavors and low acidity.
SPANISH ROAST
The beans are a deep brown and have
developed a glossy coating, the result of the
coffee oils being forced to the surface by the
roasting process. The flavor of these coffees is
more developed than the lighter roasts. They are
stronger with more aroma. Sometimes referred to
as Continental Roast.
The rule of thumb is: the lighter the roast color, the milder and sweeter the brew, and the darker the roast color, the more toasty or smoky the brew.
