Our darkest, most intense offering. Glistening with natural oils, bold, and unapologetically rich. Italian Roast represents the absolute peak of the dark roast spectrum. Roasted darker and slower than our French Roast, this blend pushes high-grown specialty Arabica beans deep into second crack, allowing natural aromatic oils to fully coat the surface. The result is a cup of immense volcanic intensity: roasted cacao nibs, charred sweet cedar, rich dark molasses, and a thick, syrupy mouthfeel with zero sourness, zero acidity, and maximum boldness.
