We introduced this blend in 1998 for those who prefer a milder cup. A shade lighter than most of our offerings – more toasty than roasty – it’s perfect if you want to wake up to a less intense coffee but still want a lot of character. Breakfast Blend is lively with a citrusy tang that gives way to a clean finish. Try it with apples, blueberries, or lemon.Expertly packed immediately after roasting, Starbucks whole bean coffees are as fresh as the day they were roasted.
