Fortitude
Dark Roast · Agtron 35
Tasting notes: Dark Cocoa, Smoky Cedar & Syrupy Bittersweet Finish
Robust, intense, and deeply comforting. Fortitude is roasted deep for people who want a heavy-bodied cup with structure: bold baker’s chocolate, rich smoky undertones, and almost no acidity. Best in a French press or as a strong drip.
Grown by Catholic families in the mountains of Central America and roasted in small batches. 100% of net profits support seminarians in need.
Fortitude holds the line. Heavy-bodied and unshaken.

What’s an Agtron score?
Agtron is the coffee industry’s objective measure of roast color, read by a spectrophotometer. Higher numbers are lighter roasts; lower numbers are darker. Light roasts sit around 70–80, medium around 50–60, dark around 35–45, and French roast at 30–35. We print the number on every bag so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Where does the money go?
100% of Knights Coffee net profits go to the Seminarian in Need fund of the diocese you choose at checkout. The fund covers the ordinary costs of formation — books, a car repair, a laptop, a flight home — so a man can focus on becoming a priest. Every bag. Every order.
Brewing tips
Use 1 gram of coffee for every 16 grams of water (about 2 tablespoons per 6 oz cup), water just off the boil, and grind right before brewing if you can. Light roasts like Hope shine in a pour-over; dark roasts like Fortitude and Justice love a French press. Faith was built for espresso.
Shipping & returns
Orders over $40 ship free within the United States; a 3-bag bundle always ships free. Coffee is roasted to order and ships within a few business days. If something arrives damaged or wrong, email brew@knights.coffee and we will make it right.
