How’s it going? Hope the coffee is flowing! Today, I’m going to talk about a coffee developed specifically for coffee lovers who are concerned about their cholesterol and liver health. This is another delicious offering from Purity Coffee, and by now, I’m sure you’re familiar with the exceptional quality and health benefits of their brews. In my French Press today I have Purity Coffee’s Protect.
The Roaster
Based in Greenville, South Carolina, Purity Coffee is a brand dedicated to sustainability, eco-friendliness, and providing coffee lovers with some of the healthiest coffee on the market. You can learn more about how they achieve these goals here, or by reading my reviews of their Sacred Cups Medium Roast and Dark Roast.
In addition to the usual Purity Coffee benefits, Protect is specifically crafted to increase its chlorogenic acid content, a natural antioxidant known to support liver function. Let’s see if it delivers great taste along with these health benefits!
When rating coffee I follow the same method of brewing each time. Find out about how I prepare the coffee I rate here.
Purity Coffee Protect Review
Aroma and Body
When ground, Protect has a sweet and fruity fragrance with just a hint of tartness. Brewing enhances these sweet notes even further, but the aroma takes on a dark, maple syrup-like richness. With its focus on liver health and cholesterol, it’s no surprise that—even in a French press—this coffee has a light body.
Flavor Profile and Qualities
Protect starts with bright, slightly fruity floral notes, accompanied by a hint of chamomile that adds a touch of sweetness. In the middle, that sweetness becomes more prominent, paired with mild hazelnut notes and balanced by a pleasant bitterness. The hazelnut shines through in the finish, delivering a deliciously nutty end to the experience.
Overall Thoughts
Overall, Protect is another smooth and flavorful offering from Purity. The floral and fruity opening that transitions into hazelnut is a unique shift, but one that’s well executed. While not overly complex, the coffee is balanced and easy to enjoy. I believe it would appeal to regular coffee drinkers and serve as an excellent introduction for those looking to expand their palate.
You can purchase Protect, along with the rest of Purity’s offerings, on their website. While you’re there, use the code COASTERSNCOFFEE20 to get 20% off your first order! At a price point of $29 for 12 oz (about $38.67 per pound) or $129 for 5 lbs (about $27.80 per pound), Purity Protect comes at a premium price, but it’s well worth it for the peace of mind that comes with drinking a clean, healthy coffee.
