Recipe for great coffee. Use cold, filtered water and a clean machine. Grind beans just before brewing: Coarse for coffee press. Medium for automatic drip. Measure 2 tbsp (10g) ground coffee for every 6 fl oz (180 ml) water. Storage philosophy 101. To preserve that fresh, just-roasted flavor, keep this bag sealed tight in a cabinet (not the refrigerator) and brew within a week of opening.

Starbucks® Coffee Italian Dark Roast Whole Bean Coffee. Batch roasting since 1971. Tasting notes; sweet, slightly smoky. Flavor intensity; X-bold.Other Description
Our dark roasts: We roast coffees darker to achieve specific flavors - from subtle notes of caramelized sugar to a bold smoky taste. It takes special beans to go this dark. Anything other than dense, high-grown Arabica beans will turn to ash and leave an unpleasant finish. But when a good bean meets a skilled roaster, ah, that's something to be reckoned with. Your comments and questions are always welcome. Visit us at starbucks.com. Good coffee, doing good. The coffee in this bag - like all our coffees - is of the highest quality and purchased with respect for farmers. By working together and paying the prices their premium coffee deserves, we're helping improve the lives of those farmers and their communities. Find out about additional ways we are working with farmers to ethically source our coffee at starbucks.com/sharedplanet. Only 3% of the coffee grown around the world is good enough to make it into a bag of Starbucks® coffee. And it's always 100% Arabica. Italian roast: Coffee is an art form in Italy, and no one settles for a timid cup. So when we created a coffee that waves the Italian flag, we wanted something robust and expressive. Our roasters answered with a sturdy coffee that's darker than our espresso roast but not as smoky as French. We love it for its rich, roasty sweetness, medium body and clean finish.
