Light Roasts

Typically we don't like to generalize or simplify, but we will share with you a little tip that the ladies back in the farm say as they roast coffee on the clay pan on the wood fire. "Raw sugar is always sweeter then caramel and dark chocolate is always heavier and longer lasting then milk chocolate" With coffee these two analogies are generally true. As we roast from light to dark, what we might give up in sweetness we might gain in body.

Light roasts are great for appreciating the subtle flavours, sweet and bright notes in coffee. A light roast can exude a fresh citrus and flowery aroma.
