  • The dark sweetness of toffee and a dusting of cacao nibs up front, finishing long on dark chocolate. Full-bodied and satisfying – the kind of cup that earns its place in a morning routine.

    Paramount is our darker roast. It makes a big, chocolatey espresso that stands up in milk drinks, and it's good as filter too. If you like a cup with some weight to it, start here.

    Coffee is seasonal, so the components in this blend shift through the year as fresh harvests arrive. Want to know why? Read The Coffee Arrival Calendar. The bag in your hands is always fresh, in-season coffee.

    Current components

    • 80% Brazil: Selvatech, Peaberry, Natural
    • 20% Costa Rica: Atenas, Washed

  • Tasting notes: toffee, cacao nibs, dark chocolate

    Roast and brew

    Roast
    Dark. We give it a long development time and take it gently to the edge of second crack, which deepens the body and brings out the dark chocolate. It stays clean in the cup.

    Recommended brew recipe
    Dose: 17g
    Yield: 32g
    Time: 25 to 30 seconds
    A starting point we like. Tweak it to your taste.

    Resting
    Rest it for at least 7 days after roasting before brewing it as espresso. Plenty of people like it earlier, so brew whenever you fancy.

  • We offer our coffees as whole beans, pre-ground, and green unroasted.

    To help you choose the best pre-ground options for you, below is a list of popular brew methods that we find work well with our settings. And for more information, please visit our dedicated grind size article here.

    Espresso: Turkish coffee (jezve) or, you guessed it, espresso*

    Fine Filter: Moka pot, AeroPress, single cup pour-over (e.g. Hario V60 01, Chemex 1-3 cup, Kalita 155, Narrow Orea). Fine filter also works well for home espresso machines like the De'Longhi Dedica.

    Medium Filter: Double cup pour-over brewers (e.g., Clever Dripper, V60 02, Chemex 6/8/10 cup, Kalita 185, April, Wide Orea, syphon brewers, etc)

    Coarse Filter: Automatic drip brewers like Moccamaster, BUNN, Sage, Behmor etc.

    French Press: French Press (cafetiere/press pot/plunger pot), cold brew, cowboy coffee.

    It is not possible to grind 3kg bags.

    Ground coffee cannot be refunded nor exchanged as it is a product customised especially for you. Full refund policy here.

    If you're interested in getting yourself a grinder, we have a great selection to choose from! Click here to check them out.

    *Please note that some home espresso machines will struggle with a standard espresso grind due to the wide variety of machines on the market and the difference in spec when compared to commercial espresso machines. If you are unsure whether this applies to your personal home set-up please get in touch.
