Starbucks Whole Bean Coffee, Espresso Roast Dark 40 Oz.

Every espresso beverage Starbucks handcrafts for you begins right here. Starbucks' master roasters coax the beans along the heat taking them deep and dark—a recipe for caramelly sweetness so right it's never been changed. The quest began in 1975 with a search for the perfect melding of beans and roast, ending months of intense experimentation later with the coffee you're holding in your hand. A blend of beans from Latin America and Asia-Pacific, roasted the way only they can.

The Starbucks Difference

It's where sustainable and ethical sourcing meet to create a long-term supply of high-quality coffee and positively affect the lives and livelihoods of coffee farmers and their communities.

Starbucks, in pursuit of premium quality coffee, sources beans from more than 30 coffee-producing countries located within the "coffee belt." As a result, they have instituted their own set of comprehensive guidelines to help ensure the coffee they buy is ethically grown and responsibly traded.
