Coffee Notes

Coffee beans are the seeds of the coffee fruit/cherry .

Our Jamaica coffee beans are the aribica type beans. The other type of bean, Robusta has twice as much caffeine but produces less flavorful brews.

Roasting time has an effect on flavor. The longer the roast the more oil comes to the surface and this results in less acid and less caffeine in the bean.

The French roast, produces a darker and oiler bean. This is a bean that is subject to a longer roasting period than the Light and City roast that are at the shorther roasting end of the roasting scale. The Espresso roast, beans roasted longer than the Frence roast, is at the far end of the rossting scale.
