Light Roasted Coffee

Light-roasted coffee often gives more room to fruit, floral notes and lively acidity, with less emphasis on roast flavour. The result still depends on the beans, their processing and how you brew them. Not every light roast tastes sharp or citrusy.

Filter coffee and V60 are good ways to explore these differences. Compare Kenya Thuti with our organic Peru for two coffees from different origins. Light-roasted beans can also work as espresso, although you may need to adjust the grind and beverage yield.
