Smooth Coffee
51 coffees · 30 roasters
Smooth coffees deliver a soft, low-acid mouthfeel with sweetness that lingers rather than snaps — the opposite instinct from a bright, zippy cup. Overwhelmingly medium roasts, and disproportionately common among washed and decaf lots, these gentle, easy-drinking coffees are a safe pick for milk-based drinks or anyone who finds high-acid coffee too sharp.
