Description
From our first store in Seattle's Pike Place Market to our coffeehouses around the world, customers requested a freshly brewed coffee they could enjoy throughout the day . So in 2008, our master blenders and roasters worked together with customers to create it for you . The result was Pike Place Roast, a blend so consistent and harmonious that no single characteristic dominates-or disappears .We source 100% arabica beans when crafting our coffee . Each coffee bean requires a unique balance of temperature and time to reach its individual peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor . This delicious medium-roast blend has a smooth body and the subtle flavors of cocoa and toasted nuts . It's a rich, satisfying and balanced cup .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, we have instituted our own set of comprehensive guidelines to help ensure the coffee we buy is ethically grown and responsibly traded .*Pike Place is a registered trademark of The Pike Place Market PDA, used under license .
