City (alt. medium or American) is the name applied to a medium degree roast of coffee beans. In this roast, the beans fully complete first crack, resulting in a dry bean with a medium brown color. Coffee brewed from beans roasted to this degree will present the full flavor present in the beans without having its characteristics masked by the roast. A city roast will tend to highlight bright, acidic notes[1].
