We use Medium, Full City, and Dark to provide broad definitions about the color and characteristics of our roasts. Our Medium roasts tend to be light-medium bodied coffees with bright, flavorful notes. Medium roasts have a neutral brown color and are free of oil on the surface. With our Full City roasts, the body and sweetness pick-up, yet still have brightness. Full city roasts are dark brown and may have a light, patchy sheen on the beans. Lastly, our Dark roasts tend to be heavier in body, characterized with bold, sweet or bittersweet flavors and an oily surface.
