Story

Triangle Accent

French Roast is our darkest roast! Features a blend of selective Central and South America, strictly hard bean coffees specially selected to handle the dark roast without losing their flavor.

We find a surprising amount of sweetness, balanced with the pleasant bitterness that French Roasts are known for. Creamy and even, deep and breathy, this coffee is complex yet comforting. Brews a rich full cup of simple chocolate, molasses and smoky flavors.

Klatch Coffee is a woman-owned, family-operated coffee company based in Southern California and distributed worldwide. We source, roast, and brew our own coffee, and apply our scientific method to accomplish a taste best described with expletives and exclamations. Some say it’s obsessive, we say it’s fun. Our methodical approach is a mix of coffee artistry and mad science — obsessively meticulous and thoroughly documented over many tastings to get it just right. We call it our “peak of flavor method,” and it’s earned us a spot on the world coffee stage for three decades and counting. Here at Klatch, we spend a lot of energy searching for and studying about the best coffee we can offer. We value people and planet before profit, and at Klatch Coffee, the conversation around coffee never stops. Our Klatch Direct Trade Coffee journey begins with a partnership with like-minded producers - those who share our same commitment to ethics, excellence, environmental stewardship, quality, and community. We follow a Direct Trade Coffee model that is designed to meet the needs of the families in today’s market, and buy straight from the growers, cutting out the traditional middleman. In doing so, we're able to pay well above Fair-Trade minimums - by at least 25% - and often pay double or triple those prices based on the cup quality. Our buying model is designed to push the envelope of quality coffee by encouraging viable, meaningful careers in specialty coffee agriculture. We only buy Cup of Excellence quality coffee and above, often 90 points or more, and we believe that a farmer that grows such award-winning coffee should be given their due. Through our Klatch Direct Trade model, we have not only simplified the supply chain, but we've also improved the quality and sustainability for farmers and have built long-term relationships with producers in various countries.

    I was pleased with the taste, but was disappointed with the look of the beans. They were brown with less oil than I am accustomed to with French Roast. The region in which they obtain their beans is perfect for a dark roast. A hard shelled bean is required for this type of roast and it does have an enjoyable taste. The look of the beans is the only reason why I gave 4, instead of 5 stars in this review.

    This is one of my current favorites. The strong full flavor and low acidity make it work no matter what amount of teaspoons are used, 1 1/2 or 2 per cup. Excellent flavor for those of us who prefer to walk on the very Dark side of the brew dial and I recommend this coffee wholeheartedly.
