UBIRATAN beans
Dark roast coffee is characterized by its bold, robust flavour profile and deep, smoky aromas. The longer roasting time brings the beans to a higher temperature, typically past the second crack, which caramelizes the sugars and develops strong notes of chocolate, roasted nuts, and even hints of spice or burnt sugar. As a result of this process, the coffee’s natural acidity is significantly diminished, creating a smoother and heavier-bodied cup with a bittersweet finish. Dark roast coffee tends to have less of the original bean’s nuanced flavours but offers a consistent, rich taste that appeals to those who enjoy a more intense coffee experience.
About this coffee
-
Hints of Caramel, Nuts and Smoky.
-
Low acidity due to the longer roasting process, which breaks down the acidic compounds found in the beans. This results in a smoother, more mellow flavour profile with reduced sharpness.
-
Dark roast coffee is achieved through a longer roasting process at higher temperatures, typically reaching 230–240°C (446–464°F). During roasting, the beans pass the first crack and approach the second, where their natural sugars fully caramelize, and oils emerge on the surface, giving the beans their signature glossy appearance.

Arabica coffee, scientifically known as Coffea arabica, is the most popular and widely cultivated coffee species in the world, prized for its smooth, complex flavours and aromatic qualities. Native to Ethiopia, Arabica beans thrive at high altitudes, often producing notes of fruit, floral undertones, and a balanced acidity.
