Coffee has hundreds of aromatics and astounding pairing possibilities. Light roast African coffees are great with citrusy sweet desserts, fresh fruit and soft cheese. Medium roasted fincas complement chocolate cakes, banana bread, muesli and sweet goats cheese. Darker roasts are more appropriate to dark chocolate, date tarts, hard cheeses and fried foods. Cold brew can be enjoyed with caramel ice cream, peanut butter or popcorn. Espresso condensates flavours intensively, filtered coffee allows a food's nuances to come through and the full body of French press can deal with thick hearty fare.
