The Dark Blend Blend

With modern coffee trending toward lighter roasts, it can be surprisingly hard to find a classic dark blend these days. Many roasters have leaned into brightness and fruit-forward profiles, which, while delicious, leave some folks missing the bold, roasty coffees they grew up loving.

That’s where this blend comes in. Down to the name, we're trying to make it easy for you to find what you're after. For those of you seeking a true-to-its-name, no-nonsense dark blend, we proudly present: The Dark Blend.

It’s rich, roasty, a little oily on the surface, and unapologetically full-bodied. But we’ve roasted it carefully to avoid bitterness or harshness—it’s smooth, grounded, and deeply satisfying. It’s the kind of cup that makes you want to sit by a fire, tell a story, and stare into the distance like you’re in a coffee commercial from 1998.

This year's version features a carefully balanced mix of African, South American, and Central American coffees. The result is a deep, chocolatey cup with a touch of smokiness that tastes excellent as a traditional, Italian-style espresso—and it shines in a drip coffee maker or French press. It's a versatile, dependable blend made especially for those who love a darker roast with character.
