Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Dark Magic Whole Bean Coffee 18 oz — Extra-Bold, Full-Bodied

Dark Magic by Green Mountain Coffee Roasters is an extra-bold whole bean coffee with intense dried-fruit and bittersweet dark chocolate notes, packaged in an 18 oz bag for fresh, full-flavor brewing.

Born from a mountain-roasted tradition, this blend emphasizes depth and richness while respecting sustainable sourcing practices. Dark Magic is crafted for drinkers who prefer a very bold cup without losing balance—a dark roast that finishes with subtle sweetness rather than harsh bitterness. The beans are whole to preserve aroma and flavor until you grind them for your preferred brewing method.

What flavor profile can I expect from Dark Magic?

You’ll notice pronounced dark-roast characteristics supported by dried-fruit undertones and bittersweet chocolate. The roast brings forward deep, roasted sugars and a pleasantly lingering finish rather than bright acidity.

• Primary tastes: bittersweet dark chocolate and roasted caramel.
• Secondary notes: hints of dried fruit that add subtle sweetness.
• Mouthfeel: full-bodied with a smooth, lingering finish.

How should I brew whole bean Dark Magic for best results?

Grind immediately before brewing and match grind size to your method: coarse for French press, medium for drip, fine for espresso. Use about 1 to 2 tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water and adjust to taste; hotter water and longer contact time highlight the roast’s boldness.

• French press: coarse grind, 4–5 minute steep for full body.
• Drip/auto brewer: medium grind, balanced extraction.
• Espresso: fine grind, short but intense extraction.
• Iced coffee: brew slightly stronger, then cool over ice to preserve flavor.

What makes this coffee responsibly sourced and kosher certified?

Green Mountain Coffee Roasters reports that beans come from farms committed to ethical practices and sustainability, reflecting the brand’s long-standing sourcing standards. The product also carries Orthodox Union Kosher certification, offering an additional assurance for consumers seeking that certification.

• Responsibly sourced beans from partner farms.
• Certified Orthodox Union Kosher for dietary observance.
• Packaged whole bean to reduce processing and retain freshness.

How should I store the 18 oz bag to maintain freshness?

Keep the bag sealed and stored in a cool, dark place away from moisture, heat, and strong odors. For longer-term freshness, transfer beans to an airtight container after opening and grind only what you need.

• Reseal bag or use an airtight container.
• Store at room temperature, not in the fridge or freezer daily.
• Grind small amounts immediately before brewing.

Who is this for: Dark Magic is designed for coffee lovers who prefer a bold, full-bodied cup that leans into dark-roast intensity without losing complexity. It suits home brewers using French press, drip coffee makers, and espresso machines, as well as anyone who values responsibly sourced beans and kosher certification. If you enjoy deep chocolate tones, low acidity, and a sustained finish, this 18 oz whole bean bag is tailored to your routine.
