Tell me more about this coffee...

You’ll find Santos beans in the rolling plains of southern Brazil. As Brazil is the largest producer of coffee, you’ll find a range of different flavours. The Brazil Santos bean, though, allows the nutty but sweet flavours to ride through each cup.

The weather in the São Paulo region means that the coffee cherries can use a dry process that allows the cherries to dry naturally in the sun that allows the sweetness to carry on into your cup of coffee.

When you drink this coffee, you’ll experience complex, full-bodied coffee with dark chocolate flavours and a slight hint of sweetness. We roast this coffee at medium which allows for a mellow, uniform flavour and a creamy mouthful.

Taste

Nuts, cinnamon, chocolate

Strength

Not too strong at all

Brew notes

As this coffee is perfect for all purposes, it’s great for anyone just getting into coffee, or for people who are used to full-bodied dark roasts who fancy a change. Although it can be enjoyed as black coffee, it works well as a mocha to enhance the subtly woody, chocolate flavourings.

The science bit

What do you get for your money? Find out in our ‘how many cups guide’.

Roast Type

Roast level determines the taste. Light roasts retain more caffeine and original flavour characteristics. Medium roasts have a better-balanced flavour. Dark roasts often have a bitter, smoky flavour, heavy body, with less caffeine retention.

Acidity

Acidity – often known as “brightness” describes the additional flavours of the coffee. Less bright coffees just taste like coffee. Coffees with high brightness have other flavours that ‘pop’. If you want exciting flavours – pick a coffee with high acidity.

Body

Body is the texture of the coffee – how it feels when it reaches your mouth. Body is not something you taste but something you feel. A light body will feel like skimmed milk, a medium body like semi-skimmed and a full body like whole milk.
