Blue Ridge Bluff

Dark roast, chocolatey & sweet - Strong, thundering, Appalachian majesty.

Dark Roast | Dark, creamy, and smooth, with hints of pine and dark chocolate. A true dark roast, this single-origin coffee expresses the boldness traditionalists expect. Fans tend to also love the slightly lighter-roasted Potomac Falls and Skyline Overlook.

These dark Sumatran beans are reminiscent of the Blue Ridge Parkway, which traces the mountains of Virginia through Charlottesville, Lynchburg, Staunton, Lexington, and Roanoke. Sitting on the edge of the world, in a thunderstorm, you might just barely experience all the savage beauty this coffee has to offer.

INDONESIA - CITRA PERSADA | A group of smallholder farmers from Bener Meriah, Sumatra came together to produce this regional blend. In this region, coffee farms average at just 0.5 – 2 hectares each. Bener Meriah is nestled around the northern shore of Lake Tawar and dominated by the imposing Burni Telong volcano. The process of producing coffee from groups of smallholder coffee farmers in Sumatra is complicated and involves many steps. Every village typically has a collector who receives the fresh-picked cherry from the smallholder coffee farmers for washed processing each day before continuing on to the central mill. For this coffee, PT Indokom Citra Persada managed the composition of the coffee, quality, milling and exporting. PT Indokom Citra Persada is an export group that works throughout Indonesia’s coffee regions, but who has a dedicated mill and operations team in Aceh.
