Dark RoastWhole Bean100% Arabica

Peet's earns points for providing a specific roast date on their packaging, which is a critical indicator of freshness. However, as a dark roast blend, it lacks the specific elevation (MASL) and SCA cupping scores required for a gold rating, and the heavy roasting process likely reduces the chlorogenic acid (antioxidant) density compared to lighter specialty roasts.
