★☆☆☆☆
NOT a light roast. It is a FRENCH Roast. Much too dark. Burnt
I am a coffee roaster, worked for a private cafe last year but since haven't had access to good beans. Was excited to have a light roast Guatamala, they can develop nice chocolatey flavors with fruit notes and the description matched this expectation. Completely disappointed. NOT a light roast at all. Coffee is cooked to a crisp. Taste burnt and smokey. Obviously roasted until 2nd crack, which is confirmed in attached photo by the larger size of the beans and oiliness. Picture shows true light roast on the left and CopperMoon "light" roast on the right.
