Recognisable, rich and widely loved – chocolate is one of the most appreciated flavour notes in coffee.
When you take a sip of coffee and notice a hint of cocoa or even dark chocolate, you are tasting the chocolate flavour note. This profile is commonly found in coffee beans from Latin America, such as Brazil, Colombia and Guatemala. The intensity can range from smooth and milk-chocolate-like to deep and bold, reminiscent of dark chocolate.
Chocolate flavours develop mainly during the roasting process and are influenced by factors such as soil composition, altitude and fermentation. Beans grown at low to medium altitudes are especially known for producing these warm, full-bodied characteristics.
Coffee lovers who enjoy classic, comforting flavours. Chocolate notes pair beautifully with milk-based drinks like cappuccino or latte, but are just as satisfying when enjoyed as a pure espresso.
