Gourmet 100% arabica - Fresh coffee beans

The roast date of Café du Jour's coffee beans is usually a maximum of four weeks before dispatch. This means that the coffee beans are generally no older than four weeks when they arrive at your door. Many people ask if coffee beans are already too old after three weeks. The answer to that is: no. Freshly roasted coffee actually reaches its best flavour after a few weeks. During roasting, carbon dioxide (CO₂) is created inside the coffee beans, which can mask the taste at first. That is why coffee is at its best between one and four weeks after roasting. After roasting, the beans are immediately packed in special coffee bags with a one-way valve. This valve allows CO₂ to escape without letting oxygen in, so the aromas are preserved and the coffee remains fresh. This way, you can count on an optimally fresh product with a full flavour!

This coffee has a balanced, lightly sweet flavour with a velvety body and a long-lasting dark chocolate finish. The blend consists of ten carefully selected Arabica varieties, giving the coffee an elegant and harmonious taste experience.

These beans are suitable for multiple brewing methods, including espresso, cappuccino, filter coffee and cafetière (French press). Customers report achieving excellent results with various devices.

The Gourmet 100% arabica has an intensity of 6 (regular) and is experienced by customers as not too bitter, but full of flavour. This makes the coffee very suitable for lovers of mild to medium-strength coffee.
