Italian Roast is much darker and oilier than a French Roast and often preferred in Italy. If a coffee is described as being a French or Italian roast, it isnât because they were grown or roasted in these countries, just that the roaster utilized this generalized roast level for that blend of beans.
I work for Starbucks and can answer a couple of these questions, a Tazo Chai Tea latte is a spiced black tea concentrate and has a specific recepie therefore the caffeine content should always be about the same where actual leaf tea can vary depending on the plant from which it came, this also goes for different coffee blends; the lighter the roast the more caffeine in the coffee because caffeine is roasted out of coffee beans which is why ther is a little caffeine left in decaf coffee.
