Peet's Coffee French Roast Whole Bean – 100% Arabica, Dark Roast, 18oz

Bold, Smoky, and Deep — Peet’s French Roast at a Glance

Peet's French Roast is a dark, full-bodied coffee built on 100% Arabica beans sourced from high-altitude Latin American regions. The beans mature slowly in thin air, becoming dense and flavor-packed, which helps preserve a strong, complex character even under a deep roast. This coffee is designed for those who love a powerful profile with pronounced smoky overtones and a subtle, lingering sweetness. It’s a coffee that invites negotiation with cream or sugar rather than shying away from a bold palate.

Flavor notes, aroma, and who it’s for

From the first whiff, you’ll notice a rich, roasted aroma that hints at chocolate, smoke, and caramel. The body tends to be assertive, making it a versatile base for drinks that want presence and depth. If you crave a cup that holds its own in the morning or after a meal, this could be a compelling fit. It’s a coffee that rewards those who enjoy a robust finish and a touch of sweetness that reveals itself as you explore the cup.

Brewing guidance

• Espresso: fine grind
• Drip / Pour-over: medium grind
