Grocery staple that aims to deliver a reliable, aromatic cup for home brewing. Home baristas seeking a steady, approachable flavour will enjoy the roasting tradition behind Der-Franz Colombia Single Origin Coffee. Is the flavour profile versatile enough for both espresso and milk-based drinks?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Aroma Profile: Sweet, floral perfume with balanced roast notes
  • Best for: Home espresso machines and milk-based drinks like cappuccino
  • Not ideal for: Those who prefer very dark, heavily roasted flavours

Single origin Colombian beans, roasted as whole beans. Medium intensity with moderate acidity for adaptable brewing.


Balanced cup - with medium intensity and moderate acidity

Roast rating is 2 of 5 while intensity is 3 of 5 and acidity is 3 of 5, which places the roast in a gentle, even range. Whole beans retain natural oils until grinding, helping preserve aroma and clarity in the cup.

Consistent, even flavour that works across espresso and filter methods. Expect a cup that is neither too sharp nor overly bitter.

Versatile for multiple brew styles - with whole-bean format and recommended brew methods

Packaging of whole beans allows control over grind size, enabling ristretto, espresso, lungo and cappuccino extraction. The single origin character responds predictably to different grind and extraction adjustments.

Easily dial in shots for short espresso or longer lungos, and grind coarser for filter. Suits households that switch between machine espresso and milk drinks.

Pronounced aroma and depth - thanks to long-term drum roasting and Viennese tradition

Long-term drum roasting develops sugars and aromatic compounds slowly, producing a pronounced perfume and layered flavour. The roastery notes a Viennese tradition dating back to 1929, indicating an established roasting approach.

Richer aroma fills the kitchen during grinding and brewing, making mornings feel more indulgent. The roast style supports a rounded cup that stands up well to milk.
