The Starbucks Roast

Each coffee requires a slightly different roast to reach its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor. We classify our coffees in three roast profiles, so finding your favorite is easy.

Sumatra Single-Origin

Like the lush Indonesian island of its origin, this spicy coffee stands alone. Full-bodied with a smooth mouth-feel, lingering flavors of dried herbs and fresh earth, and almost no acidity. Our roasters love transforming these unpredictable beans from dark coral green to tiger-orange to a rich, oily mahogany, revealing bold flavors that many of us can't live without. Coffee from Sumatra is the foundation of our most treasured blends, and something we've been honored to share with you.
