Blue Bottle Bright Coffee Beans, 12 oz

Price: $22.00

The light end of Blue Bottle's range, and the one that behaves least like the coffee most people grew up on.

The bag lists blueberry, golden raisin and lemon zest, which is the vocabulary of a lightly roasted coffee where the fruit of the bean is still intact rather than roasted over. Expect acidity, in the way that a good apple is acidic.

USDA Organic. 12 oz, whole bean.

The Brand

Blue Bottle Coffee

James Freeman was a clarinet player before he was a roaster. In 2002 he started roasting small batches in a rented shed in Oakland's Temescal district, delivering to subscribers, and in 2005 he opened a kiosk in Hayes Valley in San Francisco.

Blue Bottle arrived when American coffee was still overwhelmingly dark-roasted, and it is one of the companies usually credited with turning that around: lighter roasts, single origins named on the bag, coffee treated as a food with a season rather than a commodity.

It has since grown well past San Francisco, into Los Angeles, New York, Tokyo and Seoul.

Pantry FAQs

Pantry items are fulfilled by our partner retailer in California, so they ship on their own and will not arrive in the same box as your wine. Order both and you should expect two parcels, often on different days.

You will receive tracking for the pantry parcel within 3-4 business days.

Wine requires an adult signature on delivery. Pantry items do not, so they can be left at your door like any ordinary parcel.

Yes. Nothing here is tied to a wine purchase. Shipping for pantry items is calculated separately at checkout.

Most of what we carry is shelf stable until it is opened, and would rather sit in a cool dark cupboard than on a sunny counter. Anything that needs refrigerating once opened says so on the label.

Email us with your order number and a photo of the problem and we will make it right.

These are things we actually cook with, picked by the same people who pick the wine. A good bottle tends to want something on the table next to it, and this is the shortlist we would hand a friend who asked.
