Coffee bean roasting is an important process, and each type will result in a beverage with distinct flavor and aroma characteristics.
In simple terms, it's easy to understand the role of roasting by comparing coffees prepared in exactly the same way, but which have distinct flavors and aromas not only due to the type of bean and the region where they were grown, but precisely due to how they were roasted.
Light Roast
This type of roast highlights the finer and more delicate coffee aromas, which are preserved by not being subjected to higher roast degrees (such as medium and dark). The result is a bean with a smoother sensory profile and pronounced acidity.
Discover Orfeu Varietais Acauã, our special medium-light roasted coffee. With notes of spices, high sweetness, and high acidity, it's a special drink for lovers of complex aromas.
Medium Roast
The medium roast delivers what we call a balanced cup. It leaves the coffee with balanced acidity and presents floral, fruity, and caramel notes in flavor and aroma.

Dark Roast
In turn, the dark roast develops flavors and aromas such as dark chocolate, presenting a coffee with accentuated body and sweetness.
With an intensity equivalent to 8, Orfeu Intense Coffee undergoes a dark roast and, therefore, has low acidity. Prepare a cup and enjoy a very full-bodied coffee with high sweetness.
