French Roast Coffee
About this item
Details
Description
If you love that classic “dark roast” experience, the French Roast delivers it in a way that still feels clean and drinkable. Bold and deeply aromatic, French Roast provides a satisfying warmth that lingers pleasantly. The overall impression is rich and traditional—without tipping into a burnt, bitter finish.
Our Whole Bean French Roast is crafted from single-origin, Class 1 specialty-grade 100% Arabica coffee from Finca Irlanda in Chiapas, Mexico, where the beans are grown under shade at 900–1,200 meters for slower, more refined development.

FAQ
- What is the suggested use of this product?
We recommend a 1:16 brew ratio, using two (2) Tbsp. of freshly ground coffee per 6 fl. oz. of filtered water.
- Whole bean—what grind should I use?
Match the grind to your brew method:
- Espresso machine: fine (powdery, but not clumpy)
- Pour-over/drip: medium (like sand)
- French press: coarse (like sea salt)
- Cold brew: extra coarse (peppercorn-like)
If your coffee tastes sour or seems thin, go a bit finer with the grind. If it tastes bitter or appears dry, choose a coarser setting on your grinder.
- Which brew methods work best?
These beans are versatile. Drip and pour-over highlight clarity and aroma, French press emphasizes body, and espresso-style brewing brings out richer chocolate-leaning notes—especially in the Espresso Roast.
- How is this coffee handled to protect quality?
It is harvested in multiple passes for ripeness, de-pulped promptly, fermented and washed, then sun-dried and finished carefully for storage. Lots are sorted and hand-cleaned to remove imperfections, and export handling is managed to help avoid contamination.
- How should I store whole bean coffee for best freshness?
Keep it airtight, cool, dry, and preferably in a dark place. A pantry cabinet is ideal—avoid the fridge (moisture/odors) and keep the bag tightly sealed or transfer to an airtight container.
- How long will it stay fresh after opening?
For best taste, plan to enjoy it within 2–4 weeks of opening. Grind right before brewing whenever possible—that single step makes the biggest difference in aroma and flavor.
