Darker the Cherry

Toasted nuts, dark chocolate. A natural-process Brazil from the Cerrado Mineiro, roasted dark. Plenty roasty, still sweet, with none of the ash that most dark roasts carry.

Sometimes coffee needs to let its hair down. This is the bag for people who want rich and roasty and do not want a lecture about fruit notes. It takes milk without disappearing and makes a heavy, comforting espresso.

If you want smoke and bite instead, Off Grid is the darker option on the shelf.
