FrontStreet Coffee Introduction - Single-Origin Coffee Recommendations

Single-origin coffee best expresses the unique regional character of coffee beans. Due to differences in regional terroir across countries, some are more acidic while others are more bitter. The roasting profile of the roaster can also change the bean's character.For coffee beginners, single-origin coffee is a great choice.

Light roast: Pronounced acidity, with floral and fruity aromas. Recommended: Front Street Kenya coffee beans (cherry tomato and snow pear notes), Front Street Red Cherry coffee beans (berry and floral notes), Front Street Huakui coffee beans (strawberry, guava, mango).

Medium roast: Acidity gradually decreases while bitterness emerges, with nutty aromas. Recommended: Front Street Queen's Estate coffee beans (nut and toasted bread notes), Front Street Bird of Paradise coffee beans (cocoa and citrus notes).

Dark roast: Almost no acidity, with increasing bitterness and pine-like aromas. Recommended: Front Street Mandheling coffee beans (spice, herbal, caramel).
