A perfect blend of nostalgia and specialty coffee roasting practices.
When the subscription community was asked whether they'd like to see a lighter or darker blend to hit the discovery lineup next - the results were overwhelming. There's just something about those rich, deep tones in the cup, especially when paired with milk.
The idea with D&M then was to create something that blurred the lines between that nostalgic dark roast we grew up with in the 90s and 00s, and the nuanced flavour specialty coffee brings to the cup these days.
The answer is taking two coffees that are known for having bigger body to begin with, and roasting them to a point which brings out some roast flavour character, whilst retaining some origin character in the cup too.
Coffees from Chandra Hills India and the Huehuetenango region of Guatemala are blended prior to roasting, and taken to the edge of second crack, with more heat left in the drum to increase caramelisation in development.
If you love a darker roast, this coffee is for you. If you turned you back on dark roasts some time ago, this coffee may just bring you back to the dark side.
