Darker blends are generally (excuse the pun) "roasted" by coffee drinkers who believe that high heat kills the complexity and flavours of the bean.
Dark roasts are generally roasted to such a high level to ensure that ALL of the beans (the good, bad, and the ugly) taste the same to mask defects and ensure consistency.
But that's not how we make Hale Noir.
By sourcing high-quality bean (beans with high density can accommodate the high heat without becoming too bitter or astringent) we're able to highlight (not kill) the quality of the bean with the roasting process.
The result? Dark chocolate hazelnut heaven.
