The French Roast begins with Fair-Trade Certified Organic Arabica beans grown in the highlands of Sumatra. All of the Healthy bean coffes are shade grown, offering a low acidity and a smooth finish despite the darkness of the roast. Our French Roast is different than most; it’s full-bodied (our darkest roast) and provides that strong “zing” that a dark roast should only without a trace of bitterness. The French Roast is similar to the Italian Roast, but with the French you’ll taste more of the roast than the earthiness of the bean.
