The blend pairs Asia\/Pacific and Latin American beans for a rich, full-bodied cup with a velvety mouthfeel and signature notes of dark cocoa and caramelized sugar. It's a \"dessert coffee\" by design, balancing bold roast intensity with a hint of natural sweetness that pairs especially well with anything chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis is the 28 oz (794 g) club-size bag — significantly larger than the standard 12 oz Starbucks retail bag you'll find in Korean grocery stores. The larger bag works out to better per-cup economics for daily home brewing. The grind is medium, suited for drip coffee makers, French press, pour-over, and moka pot. The bag is resealable and uses Starbucks' Flavor Lock packaging to preserve freshness once opened.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e100% Arabica beans, ethically sourced through Starbucks' partnership with Conservation International. Roasted and packaged in the United States by Nestlé under license from Starbucks Coffee Company.

It was created in 1975, originally as a custom dark roast for a Seattle restaurant, where it went by the name \"Jake's Blend.\" Customers loved it enough that Starbucks began hand-scooping the blend to order in stores, where staff and regulars knew it as the \"80\/20 Blend\" — a reference to the original recipe ratio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eBy the time the blend was officially released, it had earned its romantic naming. Verona — the Italian city of Romeo and Juliet, of opera, of falling in love — captured the smooth, indulgent character of the coffee. The notes of dark cocoa and caramelized sugar make it especially well-suited as a \"dessert coffee,\" and it's been recommended for decades to pair with chocolate desserts, tiramisu, or rich pastries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe blend itself draws from two coffee-growing regions: Asia\/Pacific beans contribute the bold, full-bodied backbone, while Latin American beans provide balance and the foundation that makes the cup approachable. The result is a dark roast that's intense without being aggressive — strong enough for serious dark-roast drinkers, smooth enough for those who normally prefer medium roasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eHow It Compares to Other Starbucks Dark Roasts\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003chr\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eWithin the Starbucks dark roast lineup, Caffè Verona occupies a particular spot — neither the most aggressive (that's the brand's bolder single-origin Sumatra) nor the smoothest (typically the medium-dark French Roast):\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003evs French Roast:\u003c\/strong\u003e French Roast is roasted longer, giving a smokier, more intense char-forward flavor.

The 28 oz club-size bag (the size sold at US wholesale clubs like Costco) is roughly 2.3× larger and offers significantly better per-cup economics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor a household that drinks 2-3 cups of drip coffee daily, a 28 oz bag lasts roughly 4-6 weeks — long enough to be a meaningful purchase, short enough to finish before the coffee loses peak freshness. The Flavor Lock resealable bag does a respectable job of preserving aroma over that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIf you typically buy multiple smaller bags from a Korean retailer to keep up with daily consumption, this single bag generally works out cheaper per cup at our import-direct pricing.
