Light Roast Coffee — Bright, Lively Cups Without the Burn
Light roasts are where you taste more of the origin and less of the roast. Think citrus, florals, honeyed sweetness and a clean finish — not “weak”, just brighter and more detailed in the cup.
Who This Roast Is For
Reach for our light roasts if you like your coffee to feel refreshing, smooth and a little bit snappy. They’re perfect for:
- Morning sippers who want clarity without bitterness.
- Guests who say they “don’t like dark coffee.”
- People who love noticing citrus, stone fruit or floral notes.
Best Ways to Brew Light Roast
Light roasts shine when you use a method that shows off their sweetness and aroma:
- Auto-drip & pour-over for clean, everyday cups.
- AeroPress for bright, syrupy single-cup brews.
- Flash iced coffee (hot over ice) for crisp, tea-like iced coffee.
Every bag includes roast level, tasting notes and a quick brew suggestion so your first cup lands close to your sweet spot. For deeper dialing in, pair this category with Bert’s Coffee Brew Guide and explore how origin, altitude and process shape flavor in our Coffee Origins Hub.
Not sure where to start? Look for tasting notes like citrus, berry, honey or florals if you want more sparkle, or notes like milk chocolate and toasted nut if you prefer a softer, breakfast-friendly light roast. If you usually buy “medium,” trying a light roast is the easiest way to discover a new favorite cup.
