French Roast is the darkest roast on the planet. We begin with a quintessential Costa Rican coffee that can stand up to the heat and intensity of a French Roast. The French dark roast coffee beans from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf has an intense flavor combination of caramelized sugars, a hint of chocolate and a deeply smoky flavor. This product options include a 12oz bag of ground coffee and a 1lb bag of whole beans.
