What Are Blonde Espresso Beans?

Blonde espresso beans are light roast coffee beans roasted for a shorter time and pulled right before the first crack. They have a light brown color and low browning index. Blonde espresso beans create a milder espresso coffee with fruity notes, floral undertones, bright acidity, and a tea-like body, offering a more delicate flavor than traditional dark roast espresso. Some suggest the term is a marketing label for light to medium-light roasts.

What does Blonde Roast Espresso Coffee Taste Like?

Blonde roast espresso has a light body with bright, acidic notes and a hint of sweetness. It often features citrus or floral flavors, offering less bitterness than darker roasts. The coffee's lighter roast profile preserves the beans' natural characteristics, resulting in a clean, crisp taste.

The aroma of Colipse's Blonde Espresso blend is vibrant and uplifting, with floral notes and a hint of tropical fruit. This light roast blend showcases a bright and lively flavor profile, featuring delicate sweetness, hints of juicy peach, and a touch of citrus zest. The aftertaste is clean and crisp, with a subtle finish of honey and light caramel. Its high acidity is balanced by a light body, making for a refreshing cup with a smooth, delicate sweetness. Hand-picked and processed using the washed method, this blonde roast coffee offers a clean, refreshing experience with a silky mouthfeel.

How to Choose the Best Blonde Espresso Beans?

To choose the best blonde espresso beans, look for specialty grade Arabica coffee beans. Arabica beans offer a delicate flavor profile with a balance of sweetness and acidity, making them ideal for a lighter roast. The best blonde espresso beans are processed through washed (wet) methods, ensuring clean flavors. This process removes the outer fruit layer of coffee cherries before drying, enhancing acidity and brightness.

Colipse's Blonde Espresso Blend features coffee beans sourced from the vibrant regions of Central America and Africa, known for their unique terroir and diverse microclimates. These beans are grown at altitudes ranging from 1,200 to 1,600 meters, where the cooler temperatures and rich volcanic soil create ideal conditions for producing bright, complex flavors. With an annual rainfall of 1,000 to 1,800 mm and temperatures between 16°C to 22°C, the coffee cherries develop a natural sweetness that shines in the final cup.

The selective handpicking of only the ripest cherries ensures high quality, and a washed processing method enhances the blend’s clean, vibrant notes. To best enjoy the Blonde Espresso Blend’s delicate sweetness, fruity acidity, and smooth mouthfeel, we recommend brewing it with filter coffee makers, drip coffee makers, or as a fancy sweet espresso shot.
