Our Coffee Story

For more than five decades, Starbucks has been sourcing and roasting exceptional coffee. Today, we're the premier roaster of specialty coffee in the world. And with every cup, we strive to bring both our heritage and an exceptional experience to life.

Our Roasts

Each coffee requires a slightly different roast to reach its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor

Blonde Roast

Lightly roasted coffee that's soft, mellow and flavorful. Easy-drinking on its own and fantastic with milk, sugar or flavored with vanilla, caramel or hazelnut.

Medium Roast

Smooth and balanced, these coffees are perfect as your everyday cup. Look to medium roasts to deliver the perfect balance of aroma, acidity, and body that defines exceptional coffee.

Dark Roast

Fuller-bodied and bold, these coffees feature robust and intense flavors. The beans' sugars begin to emerge during the roasting process to complement the coffee's natural flavors.
