Frequently asked questions
What type of roast should I choose?
The roast level influences the flavor and strength of the coffee. If you prefer a rich, bold taste with deep flavors, a dark roast like our Sumatran Black Velvet is a great choice. For a balanced cup with a mix of bright and earthy notes, opt for a medium roast like our Mayan Soul from Chiapas, Mexico. If you enjoy lighter, fruity flavors, a light roast like our Reserva Colombiana Tolima might be the one for you.
Do you have decaffeinated options?
Yes! Our Swiss Water Decaf from Peru is 100% organic and uses a chemical-free decaffeination process, retaining its full-bodied, smooth flavor. We also offer a Half Caff blend, which is half decaf and half regular Peruvian Gold, perfect if you’re looking to cut back on caffeine without sacrificing flavor.
What flavor notes can I expect from each region?
Each coffee origin has unique tasting notes. Our Peruvian Gold offers smooth, nutty flavors with hints of cocoa, while Reserva Colombiana Tolima provides a bright, fruity profile with mild acidity. If you’re looking for something more adventurous, try our Kintamani Highlands Bali with hints of baker’s chocolate, orange peel, and a touch of juniper.
I enjoy a low-acid coffee. Which one should I choose?
For a low-acid, smooth coffee, we recommend our Sumatran Black Velvet. Its dark roast profile and earthy, lingering finish create a rich, full-bodied experience without the high acidity found in lighter roasts.
Which coffee would be best for someone who wants an everyday coffee?
For a versatile, easy-drinking coffee that suits all brewing methods, our Mayan Soul or Peruvian Gold are excellent options. Both have a balanced, smooth profile that works well for daily enjoyment and pairs wonderfully with milk or as a black coffee.
Are my bags recyclable?
Yes! At Voyage of the Bean, we’re committed to sustainability, and this upgrade is a big step towards reducing our environmental footprint. Now, you can enjoy your favorite organic, freshly roasted coffee while knowing that the packaging is eco-friendly too.
