- 8.8 oz bag
- Medium roast
- 100% arabica, sustainably grown

Who it's for
Good for espresso machine owners who want a ready-ground medium roast without buying and grinding whole beans. Not for people who brew drip or French press, since the grind is sized for espresso.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Pre-ground so no grinder is needed
- 100% arabica beans from a sustainable growing program
- Sized for direct use in an espresso machine
- Ground specifically for espresso, not suited to drip or French press
- No buyer review data available on this listing
- Description field on this listing is blank, limiting detail beyond the title and attributes
Performance notes
The coffee is milled to an espresso grind, so extraction is meant to happen under an espresso machine's pressure rather than gravity brewing, and the 100% arabica beans are described as sustainably grown for a smooth, balanced cup.
