Costa Coffee Colombian Roast is a medium roast of 100% Arabica from Colombia. Caramel leads the aroma, with honey behind it and a lift of red fruit and orange in the cup. It is sweet rather than smoky, so it carries a black espresso and still holds its own against steamed milk. Whole beans in a 500 g pack, for a bean-to-cup or portafilter machine.

Costa Coffee Colombian Roast

Costa Coffee Colombian Roast is a medium roast of 100% Arabica from Colombia, rated 8 out of 13 on the Café du Jour intensity scale. Caramel leads the aroma, with honey behind it and a lift of red fruit and orange in the cup: the brightness Colombian Arabica is known for, without the roast tipping into bitterness.

There is no Robusta in the pack, so nothing cuts across the caramel, and the medium roast keeps the fruit in the cup instead of burning it off. Drink it black and there is something to taste; add milk and it does not disappear.

Brewing it

These are whole coffee beans, so grind to suit the machine: fine for a portafilter, or let a bean-to-cup grinder do the work. As an espresso the caramel gives the shot a sweet body; through a filter the red fruit and orange come forward and the cup reads lighter. In a cappuccino the caramel still carries through steamed milk.

FAQ

Customer Questions

How long does the Costa Coffee Colombian Roast keep and how do I store the beans?

The date on the packaging is a best before date, not a use by date. The coffee is still usable after that date, but it gradually becomes less aromatic.

Store the bag cool, dry and well sealed, and not in the fridge. That way, coffee beans keep their quality longest. If you have several bags that you are not going to open for a while, you can also freeze them.

Do I get whole beans or ground coffee with the Costa Coffee Colombian Roast?

You receive whole coffee beans in a 500 gram pack.

If you want to make filter coffee or use a cafetière, grind the beans yourself. Use a filter grind for a pour over filter, coarser for a cafetière and a fine grind for an espresso machine.

What does the Costa Coffee Colombian Roast taste like?

The Colombian Roast is a dark roast from Colombia. That dark roasting brings out the caramel aroma nicely, both in espresso and in milk-based coffee.

If you drink the coffee black, you will taste notes of honey, red fruit and orange.

Which coffee machine is the Costa Coffee Colombian Roast suitable for?

These are whole beans, so you can use them directly in a bean-to-cup machine or in a separate coffee grinder. The dark roast really comes into its own in espresso and in milk-based coffee such as cappuccino and latte.

For a double espresso, allow around 16 to 20 grams of ground coffee. If you find the result too bitter, use a slightly coarser grind size or let the espresso run for a shorter time.
