Raid - Dark Roast

RAID - DARK ROAST BLEND

Attack the darkness with our bold dark roast blend. Raid is our heavy hitter, built for people who like their coffee bold, deep and unapologetically strong.

Made with Brazilian Arabica beans and roasted darker for maximum body and richness, Raid delivers thick dark chocolate notes, a smoky edge and a full, weighty finish that stays with you. This is not a bright or delicate cup. It’s a darker, harder brew built for long shifts, early starts and whatever the day throws at you.

Roasted in small batches in Manchester, Raid is designed to bring out the deeper, more intense side of the bean without pushing the cup too far into bitterness. The result is a strong, satisfying coffee with real presence — smooth enough to drink daily, but bold enough to feel like a proper loadout.

If your idea of a good coffee is dark, punchy and built to get the job done, Raid is your go-to ground assault.

WHY RAID TASTES THE WAY IT DOES

Brazilian Arabica gives Raid its weight, body and dark chocolate backbone. The darker roast profile pushes the blend further into richer, smokier territory, creating a cup with more depth, less acidity and a heavier finish than our lighter blends.

FRESHLY ROASTED TO ORDER

Our coffee is freshly roasted in our roastery in Manchester, UK, ensuring that every batch is delivered at the peak of freshness. We pride ourselves on our small-batch roasting process, which allows us to preserve the unique characteristics of each bean and deliver a consistently high-quality cup, bringing out the best flavours.

TASTING NOTES

Deep dark chocolate up front, smokey character through the middle, and a heavy-bodied finish that lingers.

BREWING TIPS

Best brewed for French Press, moka pot or a stronger espresso-style cup.

1. Use 15–18g of coffee per cup for French press, or dose to suit your espresso setup.
2. For French Press, add hot water just off the boil and stir gently.
3. Leave to brew for around 4 minutes before pressing slowly.
4. For moka pot, brew low and steady to keep the cup rich without tasting burnt.
5. Keep the brew slightly stronger to bring out the dark chocolate depth and smoky finish.

WHO IT'S FOR

For drinkers who want a darker, heavier coffee with more roast character, less brightness and a stronger overall hit — especially for French Press, moka pot and bold morning cups.
