Traditional Coffee: These are the most widespread coffees in the various distribution channels in France, both private and professional.

The higher the rating, the more surprising your coffee tasting experience will be.

Because Christmas is a time to savour something special, why not enjoy your Holiday Blend in a delightful new way? Prepare a salted caramel espresso for one using 2 shots of Starbucks Holiday Blend espresso (60 ml), a teaspoon of salted caramel syrup, and optionally 30 ml of whipped cream. Simply pour the espresso into a charming mug or glass, stir in the syrup, and top with whipped cream for a festive treat that transforms your coffee moment.
The Starbucks adventure began in the 70s in Seattle, with 2 main ideas: to celebrate coffee and its rich tradition and promote human relationships. The CoffeeShop spirit was born! This winning recipe has enabled the opening of 30,000 outlets worldwide since the beginning. A real success that continues, as Starbucks turns to a new venture with a range of coffee pods, coffee beans and ground coffee.

The type of roast will affect the balance of flavours (bitterness, acidity, sweetness, etc.) and reveal the aromas of the terroir to a greater or lesser extent.
The more the coffee is roasted the more its colour will change (from light to dark). The darker the roast, the more the aromatic notes are lost in favour of the roasting notes.
All our coffees have been placed in a colorimeter by our experts in order to compare the roast intensity.
The aromatic groups describe the tasting notes of your cup (hazelnut, chocolate, peach, white flowers, etc.).
If you don't know what your coffee profile is yet, we advise you to start with the most appreciated aromatic groups: rich & sweet or woody.
Please Note: this is not a flavoured coffee but aromatic notes noticed upon tasting.
The dominant aromatic group represents the most perceptible notes and the secondary group, the more subtle notes present in the cup.
Traditional Coffees (classic and superior) are the most common in the various distribution channels.
Specialty Coffees (rated 80-100) are among the best coffees in the world and represent less than 10% of world production. These are flawless coffees that offer unique tasting notes from one terroir (or even plot) to another.
Attributed by “Q Graders”, a coffee's /100 score is determined by the quality of the beans and the result in the cup. It is advisable to progressively move towards coffees with higher scores.
