## What the Brand Says

> Part of our signature collection, Benchmark is roasted to be just as delicious brewed as a regular drip or on espresso. We carefully selected each component for its ability to stand up to a deeper roast—bringing out richness and depth without ever tasting over-roasted, all in pursuit of a more comforting profile. Crafted for those who crave a smooth, balanced, and robust cup, Benchmark is designed to shine both in milk and on its own. Cortado, cappuccino, drip coffee—you really can’t go wrong with this one.
