Brewing Suggestions
Smooth Brazilian dark roast coffee: Brazil Santos offers familiar chocolate, cocoa and roasted nut flavours with gentle sweetness and a rounded body. This naturally processed Arabica coffee is a good choice for everyday espresso, bean-to-cup machines and stovetop brewing, particularly if you prefer classic coffee flavours rather than sharp fruity notes.
Grown in the São Paulo region at altitudes between 800 and 1,200 metres above sea level, these speciality grade Arabica beans are naturally processed, allowing the sweetness of the coffee cherry to develop fully and carry through into the cup.
Varieties including Bourbon, Typica and Mundo Novo help create a balanced, easy-drinking coffee with smooth body and classic nutty chocolate character.
What Makes Brazil Santos Special?
Brazil Santos is one of the world’s classic coffee styles, valued for its consistency, smoothness and versatility. Unlike brighter fruit-led coffees, Brazil Santos focuses on chocolate richness, roasted nut character and gentle sweetness, making it especially approachable for everyday drinking.
The natural processing method helps create fuller sweetness and softer body, while the darker roast profile develops deeper cocoa notes and extra richness.
Who Will Enjoy Brazil Santos Dark Roast?
This coffee is ideal for customers looking for a smooth, reliable dark roast without aggressive smokiness or sharp acidity. Its balanced, chocolate-led profile makes it especially suitable for espresso drinkers, bean-to-cup users and anyone looking for an easy-drinking speciality coffee for everyday use.

A nice, dark roast. Some padding, or 'this side up' would be handy though. I sliced the bag all the way down, not expecting it to be flush with the sellotope on the box!
Really love this
A really great low-acidity coffee with excellent body, a smooth initial taste, and a pleasant, lingering aftertaste.
It works beautifully as an espresso, or my personal favourite a double espresso with a dash of hot water and a high-quality olive oil.
One of Redber’s must-try coffees.
We like the dark roast style beans and Redber's Santos has never failed to deliver. The beans are never over roasted in our experience and give the intensity we enjoy. There are other smoother coffees available but this suits our tastebuds perfectly. The service is always prompt and has never let us down.
This has everything I’m looking for. Intense enough without tasting burnt. Has all the tasting notes described. Arrives fresh and consistent each time. Seems forgiving to sub optimal extractions when the barista is half asleep. Recommend
Our fave roasters, and fave product. We love the Brazil Santos.
Great coffee
Love Redber coffee! Great service and they stock our favourite coffee - Brazil Santos.
Really nice coffee, strong and good taste. Well worth the money.
Ordered Brazil Santos medium roasted and received dark roasted beans. Not very pleasant. Maybe sent the wrong order???
A great taste and not too complex. Clean and refreshing.
Makes a great tasting cup of coffee & again , a great quality roast from the Redber Team. Superb.
Another good coffee from Redber and good, quick delivery to boot!
A great local business who roasts great beans! I’ve been looking for a supplier of Brazil Santos and couldn’t be happier to have found Redber. Quick and easy to order!
I love this coffee and will try and some point trial some others and they have a great range online!
Delicious
Nice, smooth and nutty
Found this coffee to be just right. Nicely balanced with a thick chocolate character
Poor. Little flavour, very much like supermarket coffee. Purchased September 2022
I bought these after I saw an advert by Redber for this coffee. I read the reviews and it sounded like a really nice coffee ( I'm getting my head around trying new ones, lol ). It is a superb tasting coffee ( bean to cup) and will definitely be on my ' to buy again list' highly recommended. Great service from Redber too. 5*
Pleased that the 500 g bags are sealable. So decided to order 1kilo bags. But disappointed they were not sealable.
We absolutely love the Brazil Santos and were so happy to find a local family run business that supply this. The pick up collection is so easy and I really enjoy a read through their latest magazine which they leave with the coffee too. I think we need to switch to subscription now!
Super coffee and service, highly recommend
I have a monthly delivery of fresh roasted and ground coffee. I am always notified when it is due to be delivered, and even the postman loves the smell and keeps it in his van until the last delivery 😁
It takes the hassle and worry out of running out. Redber is a great company who are always helpful and answer any questions quickly.
Great coffee, tastes amazing
Brilliant experience. Appreciated the advice on grind sizes too!
Fast delivery and fresh beans.
Very good, especially mixed with the medium roast.
I was looking for a nice dark roast bean with a nice nutty flavour. This bean is perfect for me. It’s a really good way to start my day.
I buy Santos a lot, its a versatile bean and I like the flavour profile which suits lots of different styles of coffee. This last batch of dark roast was truly dreadful though, extremely bitter regardless of the strength and very inconsistent in extraction, worse than supermarket coffee. A very rare fail from Redber.
Great fresh flavour. Excellent service
I love Redber! Such excellent service and of course— excellent coffee, so 6 stars!
good tasting coffee, well rounded flavour profile, has strength but no bitterness
Lovely fresh, rich coffee and a great variety of flavours to choose from too! I will definitely order more. Thank you.
