You’ve become aware lately you want a darker, smokier, more traditional take on coffee. Yes, it’s time for a grown-up cup that comes on like a velvet punch to the senses with its stronger, bolder taste contours. You also want it to work well with milk, cream or some of the nuttier substitutes in favour with the caffeinati. Want It Darker is a traditional bean roasted with the right amount of hyper-black je ne sais quoi. Or is it ne plus ultra? You decide and let us know.

 

Roasted on Social’s darker profile (More Darker and Strong version of Pleasant Uprising), the Brazil used for this coffee offers a more traditional and balanced cup, providing the drinker with a more smokey taste.

The Natural Brazil is a testament to balance. Dark chocolate and a hint of nut meet medium acidity in a cup that’s as complex as it is comforting.
