Every roaster has a story, and this one starts in St. Petersburg, Florida, where Roast To Order began (then known as No Name Java) back in 2004. Saint Pete’s Dark Secret is a nod to those early days—a blend so bold and smooth it went from quiet experiment to customer favorite almost overnight.
This dark roast is built from Latin American, Indonesian and African beans, roasted slow and deep to bring out chocolate richness, a touch of smoky sweetness, and a silky finish. It’s bold enough to satisfy dark roast fans, yet smooth enough to win over the “not usually a dark roast” crowd.
And the secret? Freshness. We roast this blend only after you order and ship within 24 hours, so you get the bold character without the bitterness of beans left sitting on a shelf.
What’s in the Cup:
Origins: Latin America · Indonesia · Africa
Roast Level: Dark
Flavor Notes: Dark Chocolate · Toasted Caramel · Smoky Sweetness
Body: Full, Round
Acidity: Low
Finish: Bold, Smooth, Lingering
Why you’ll love it: A dark roast with history, heart, and just the right amount of mystery.
