The Starbucks Roast: Each coffee requires a slightly different roast to reach its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor. We classify our coffees in three roast profiles - Starbucks Blonde Roast, Medium and dark - so finding your favorite is easy. The Story of Veranda Blend: We've spent decades working with coffee farmers throughout Latin America. This blend was inspired by the lightly roasted coffees we've sipped together over the years, often enjoyed on a breezy veranda with a view of lush coffee trees. Subtle but flavorful with notes of toasted sweet malt and milk chocolate, it's an inviting, approachable coffee that mixes beautifully with milk.
