About Light Roast Coffee Beans
Light roast coffee beans offer a vastly different taste profile compared to medium or dark roast coffee beans. The flavors are typically milder, brighter, and are characterized by a delicate acidity and nuanced sweetness.

Despite this, all light roast coffees share certain common elements such as nutrient-rich soil and carefully controlled harvesting practices.At Paradise Roasters, we are passionate about exploring the full potential of these common elements, by working closely with farmers in some of the rarest coffee-growing regions in the world. We source only the finest light roast coffee beans and ensure strict processes for breeding, selection, and extraction.
