700

Kaldi's Coffee 700 represents everything a benchmark blend should be: meticulously quality-controlled, endlessly versatile, and deeply satisfying with every cup. Roasted in St. Louis by one of the Midwest's most respected specialty roasters, 700 undergoes rigorous testing at least three times per week—both cupped and pulled as espresso—to ensure every batch delivers the same caramel sweetness, smooth body, and dark chocolate finish that has made it a staple in homes and cafés alike.

Tasting Notes

Expect a welcoming profile built on balance rather than extremes. The sweetness leans toward brown sugar and caramel, with a velvety body that coats the palate without heaviness. Acidity is subdued and supportive, allowing the chocolate notes to emerge cleanly in the finish. Whether you're brewing a morning pour-over or dialing in a milk-based espresso drink, 700 delivers consistency and approachability without sacrificing complexity.

Brew Methods

This is a true all-rounder. As espresso, 700 shines in milk drinks—lattes and cappuccinos gain richness and chocolate depth without bitterness. Pulled straight, it offers a balanced, low-acid shot that's forgiving across a range of extraction times. For drip methods, try it in a Chemex or automatic brewer where its sweetness and body can develop fully. French press enthusiasts will appreciate the silky mouthfeel and lingering chocolate finish.
