Candy Cane

Type

Medium Roast specialty grade Arabica. Single origin base, jacked up with all-natural peppermint flavoring.

Caffeine Level

Moderate. Enough pep to deal with relatives, even when it's not the holidays.

Flavor Profile

Smells like you just hijacked Santa's sleigh. Notes of crisp peppermint, smooth coffee, and a completely inappropriate amount of holiday cheer.

Description

Some people think peppermint is only for December. We think those people need more coffee. This festive medium roast smashes the calendar to pieces, delivering cool, sweet peppermint flavor any day you damn well please. We start with specialty-grade beans and infuse them with high-quality flavor oils while they're still warm. The result is a cup so cheerfully defiant, it'll have you hanging decorations in July.

Pairing Recommendation

• Best Time: When you need to channel the 'Spirit of Christmas' on a random Tuesday, or when you just want to feel festive while paying bills.
• Food: Dark chocolate bark, sugar cookies, or just a defiant lack of seasonal awareness.
• Brewing Tips: Grind medium, brew hot. Works great as a drip or French press. Add a splash of milk to make it creamy, or drink it black to get that pure, minty kick to the teeth.

Origin and Format

Small batch roasted to a smooth medium using specialty grade single origin Arabica beans. Flavored with high-quality natural peppermint oils while warm for a defiant, even infusion. All natural flavoring, obviously.
