Flavor profile: Nuts

The nutty flavour gives coffee a smooth, creamy undertone and creates a warm, approachable tasting experience.

When a coffee shows aromas reminiscent of almond, hazelnut or walnut, we describe it as having a nutty flavour profile. This taste is subtle and well rounded, and is most commonly found in light to medium roasted Arabica beans from South America or Central Africa.

How to recognise nutty aromas

  • A mild, creamy body with soft, warm notes
  • A pleasant finish that recalls roasted nuts
  • No overpowering bitterness or sharp acidity

Where does the nutty flavour come from?

The combination of terroir (climate, altitude and soil), together with careful processing and a medium roast, allows these gentle, nutty notes to fully develop.
