This is a versatile blend designed for approachability, focusing on cozy elements of coffee. It is a wet-processed coffee made from various varieties. The blend has a full body with flavor notes of chocolate fudge, molasses, and milk chocolate. It is compared to the roaster's Coordinates blend but emphasizes more comforting characteristics, featuring milk chocolate and molasses rather than dark chocolate and raspberry.
Jesse Crouse and Peter Herman co founded Tipico Coffee in Buffalo, New York, opening as a cafe in 2015 before establishing the roastery in 2017. Crouse brings deep specialty coffee credentials, having worked as a barista at Intelligentsia in Chicago, in quality control, as a roaster at Gimme! Coffee, and as Director of Product Development at Verve Coffee. They roast on an American made Diedrich IR 12 with Cropster datalogging software, documenting exact specifications for every roast. Tipico won a Good Food Award in 2023 for its Guatemala Las Moritas Yellow Pacamara and took Gold at the 2025 Global Coffee Awards for an Ethiopian natural from Sidamo.
