"Café Bustelo is a longstanding favorite in the Cuban, Dominican, and Puerto Rican communities as its original brew's exceedingly strong, espresso-style dark roast caters beautifully to Latino coffee tastes. However, over its nearly century-long lifespan to date, Café Bustelo has come to encompass a diverse array of different roasts that are now a staple in households nationwide. Tasting Table tried and ranked 7 Café Bustelo ground coffee varieties based on uniqueness and flavor, and the best Café Bustelo variety, according to our taste test, is the medium roast."
"The description of the roast boasts notes of dark chocolate with a smooth and balanced finish, but in reality it was so much more than that. As we brewed it, the medium roast emitted a smoky and savory aroma that transformed into a bold, smoky-sweet finish. In fact, the tasting notes that hit us immediately were super chocolatey. The first sip was smooth and mellow, but the chocolate taste grew richer with each subsequent sip. A second buttery note only served to make the chocolate notes even more decadent."
Café Bustelo began as a favorite in Cuban, Dominican, and Puerto Rican communities for its original espresso-style dark roast. The brand expanded over nearly a century to include a diverse array of roasts stocked nationwide. Seven Café Bustelo ground coffee varieties were compared based on uniqueness and flavor, with the medium roast ranking highest. The medium roast released a smoky, savory aroma when brewed and finished bold, smoky-sweet with prominent dark chocolate tasting notes. The first sip was smooth and mellow, with chocolate intensifying and a secondary buttery note enhancing decadence. The medium roast displays a lighter body and ultra-sippable smoothness that works well black or with sugar and cream.
