This dark roast coffee is an ode to the heritage of Starbucks roasting, which highlights bold notes of dark chocolate truffle and roasted black walnut, making it a lovely pairing with cheese, almond and maple flavors.

Reviews
The roasters description are notes that I love in coffee! Unfortunately, when brewing espresso with this blend, I found it difficult to capture all notes. The bold notes of dark chocolate truffle tended to be overpowered by a strong woody/burnt flavour. No dark roast rating was given beyond stating it as a dark roast on the bag. Starbucks tends to roast their beans darker than anyone else commercially. With that said, reducing dose and grinding more fine than you would a dark roast achieved a reduction in the wood flavours for a more balanced taste.
