Starry Eyes 5 LB (Dark Roast)

This heavier roast is the sinister step-brother to A Love Supreme, and highlights caramelized sugars within the coffee beans. Our Premiere dark roast will produce flavors of molasses and bakers chocolate and pair perfectly with a splash of cream or a dash of sugar. These beans are a nod to the old style of roasting which is still favored throughout the world. 

Notes: Pear, Vanilla, Almond.

Net Wt. 5 Lb.

Dark Matter Coffee presents Starry Eyes, a dark roast selection that highlights the roaster's commitment to bold, developed profiles. By pushing the roast further, the Dark Matter Coffee team emphasizes deep, structural sweetness and a heavy mouthfeel, moving away from the bright acidity often found in lighter preparations. This specific profile balances the bitterness of bakers chocolate and molasses with the subtle, rounded sweetness of vanilla and almond, punctuated by a surprising note of pear.

When evaluating such complex dark roasts, it is helpful to consider how heat application transforms the chemical composition of the bean, often muting delicate floral notes in favor of caramelized sugars and toasted nut characteristics. For those looking to better identify these nuanced transitions in the cup, consulting a flavor wheel can provide a useful framework for mapping the interplay between the roast degree and the inherent qualities of the coffee.
