The House Blend is designed to be the same bag after bag. Like blended whiskey, a good coffee blend is optimized for balanced flavor and consistency.

Specialty coffee has tended to shun anything dark. With Noche Oscura we've sought to roast high quality green coffee for those who prefer a dark, bold cup. This comes straight out of our conviction that good coffee is for everyone.

Standard Espresso is a blend that elevates classic espresso characteristics as a shot or with milk. It's a benchmark, a standard, for what classic espresso should be.

Deviation Espresso exists to deviate from the standard and explore a bright and fruity espresso profile that veers non-traditional as a shot or with milk. 

Espresso is one of the most exciting ways try coffee. It's packed full of flavor and nuances that are constantly changing and developing. With this set, you have the opportunity to try a classic full bodied espresso along side a unique modern one.

In our pursuit of "Good Coffee for Everyone," we developed Anchor Blend to sit on the breakfast table (or at the diner) and help folks wake up with something straight forward that can go with a heavy breakfast.

When you source coffees it's usually a disappoint to come across a decaf on the cupping table. Not with this decaf from Sebastian Ramirez. It's a good tasting coffee in its own right, that just happens to be decaf. It's also farm level traceable, which is uncommon among coffees in general but practically unheard of with decaf.

Another fresh crop from Finca La Colmenita. They consistently produce a coffee that's rich without sacrificing balance or clean cup character. The richness comes as a chocolate note which is complimented by honey sweetness and delicate plum notes.

This carefully washed geisha has green grape and apricot flavors with a marshmallow-like sweetness. As it cools the sweetness becomes more pronounced and the fruit notes provide acidity to complement the sweetness and maintain the complexity of this coffee.

This naturally processed Ethiopian has deep fruit notes of blueberry and watermelon but not the funk that often goes with such a fruity natural processing. The acidity is subtle but present in a lemon meringue note that is just as persistently sweet as it is acidic.

Boozy in a good way, this mixed varietal natural from Sebastian Ramirez,f has an intense port wine character with a mixed berry juiciness underneath. With subtle dark chocolate notes it's basically like sitting down with a glass of port and bar of craft chocolate.

This coffee has a full body with an exciting blackberry acidity that balances out as it cools to a velvety finish with a slight note of sweet vanilla. 

An incredibly clean coffee from Aurelio Villatoro's farm, Punta del Cerro. Though not "loud" like a lot of the coffees we feature, this cup may be the most well rounded, with silky body and a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity that meld together like a delightful bar of chocolate.

It's been a while since we've done a holiday blend, and part of what prompted it this year was finding coffees that we thought would work perfectly. Despite our cheeky tasting notes, the Colombian coffee in this blend contributes body, clarity, and balance on top of which the Kenyan's spice character and acidity can subtly shine. Both coffees in this blend are sweet and fruity as well, so it's as much of a holidayFruit Cake, Merriment, Yum feast as you can fit in a cup.
