The original “French Roast” of the British took place in 1781 when the Marquis de Lafayette prevented the capture of Virginia’s capital and helped George Washington defeat the British at Yorktown. Our French Roast has all the boldness and daring of that Revolutionary era and offers the powerful flavors patriots need in any fight for independence.

Brazil Cerrado 17/18

Cerrado is a region in the state of Minas Gerais, the largest coffee-producing state in Brazil. Coffee has been a major crop in this region since the 1980’s mainly because of the devastating black frost of 1975 that forced growers from the Parana region to relocate north to Cerrado and other areas of Minas Gerais.

Today, coffee is produced by over 4,500 growers on 175,000 hectares of farmland with yields of approximately 5.5 to 6.0 million bags per year. The coffee is grown in rich soil that the natives call “Terra Roxa” or “Red Earth” and other factors such as consistent rains, high daytime temperatures, and dry winters combine to make the Cerrado region ideal for producing coffee.

In the cup:
Dark and powerful, with notes of dark chocolate and molasses. This coffee achieves a smoky, smoldering complexion without tasting burnt, and appeals to diehard dark-roast drinkers. Traditionalists may also enjoy Blue Ridge Bluff, which tends to produce a less peaty, but arguably more flavorful, cup of joe.
