Starbucks Espresso Roast Finely Ground Coffee

Starbucks Espresso Roast is a signature dark roast coffee known for its rich and caramelly notes. Originally developed by Starbucks in the United States, this specific consumer packaged goods (CPG) version is managed through a strategic alliance.

While Starbucks Coffee Company remains an independent global coffeehouse chain, its retail grocery products—including ground coffee and beans found in supermarkets—are produced and distributed under a perpetual global license by Nestlé S.A. Manufacturing occurs in various facilities worldwide, including major roasting plants in the United States and Europe, depending on the specific regional market. The partnership, formed in 2018, combines Starbucks' brand heritage with Nestlé's extensive global distribution network.
