Usually buy the Sumatra. Thought I give the French Roast a try. The Sumatra has a much richer coffee flavor and more body.

I've drank more dark roast coffees than I can count and this one, when I opened the bag, looked to be the lightest in colour of any of them. But for the most part it certainly tastes like a dark roast. Strong dark chocolate flavors with a touch of nuttiness at the end. Definitely not mild in flavour, but lacking the super robust, oily, almost thick taste of darker dark roasts. Basically, a more mild version of a dark roast, but certainly not in a bad way.

The roast is perfect. I immediately store it it a vacuum cannister so that it stays as fresh as it was when it arrives. I only use a bur grinder and find it has a wonderful flavor at medium grind in my press, drip and k-cup. I also add some ground chickory when I want Cafe Au Lait!

Love this dark roast heavy body coffee

I enjoyed this coffee for the first time today and it was perfect.
