Iconic Blends & Explainers

House Blend / Small Batch of Friends Blend — Your Everyday Signature

This is our handshake. The blend that has to taste right every single day, in any brewing context, for people who may never read a cupping sheet but know when a cup feels honest and dialed-in.

Approachable sweetness Balanced acidity Consistent year-round Transparent & seasonal

What Our House Blend Stands For

A house blend should not be a hiding place for random green coffee. It should be a clear expression of how we source, roast, and think about sweetness and balance.

  • Foundation: Often Brazil or similar for chocolate and body.
  • Lift: Washed Centrals/Latins or select Africans for clarity and gentle brightness.
  • Always published: Components and roles listed on product page or seasonally updated here.

Non-Negotiables

No mystery bins No old crop cover-ups No harsh roast defects

Every version must be sweet, clean, and calm enough to drink black or with milk.

Flavor, Brew & Use Cases

Target Profile

Milk chocolate, caramel, subtle stone fruit or citrus, medium body, no sharp edges.

Where It Shines

  • House drip / batch brew.
  • Default option for guests who “just want a good coffee.”
  • Versatile on espresso with minor adjustments.
Will the components change?
Yes, seasonally — but we protect the flavor profile. When components change, we’ll update the listed origins so wholesale and engaged customers can follow along.
Is this your “intro” coffee?
Yes. If someone tries one thing from us, this should feel welcoming, sweet, and dialed without needing a translation.
