FrontStreet Coffee Recommendation

Choosing a roast profile is a balancing act, and medium roasts are where that balance shows most clearly. FrontStreet Coffee's Brazil Queen's Estate is a good example: grown in Brazil, the world's largest coffee-producing country, it is the distinctive Yellow Bourbon variety, and a medium roast turns its delicate, sweet character into cream peanut, chocolate, toasted bread and sugarcane notes that work in a pour-over, a moka pot or an espresso machine. If you want sweetness up front, the Strawberry Candy Gesha Blend pairs Costa Rica honey-processed coffee with washed Panama Gesha and roasts to a medium level, giving both orange-blossom honey and a round, soft sweetness suited to cold brew, pour-over or espresso.

For an everyday cup, the 2013 Sun-Dried Typica carries the classic Yunnan character, and a medium roast brings out gentle layers of nut, brown sugar, black tea and dried apricot for pour-over, cold brew or drip brewing at a very friendly price. And when the occasion calls for something classic, the Jamaica Blue Mountain No. 1 is a Typica variety grown in Jamaica, roasted to a medium level so that its acidity, bitterness, sweetness and body fuse into one elegant, inviting profile of chocolate, roasted nuts, cream and caramel from the very first sip.
