Blank Roast

About This Coffee

A blend of Red Bourbon Arabica and noble Robusta from El Salvador and Uganda. The Arabica beans come from Finca Espana in El Salvador, grown sustainably in a natural rainforest region at 1,200–1,500 meters altitude. Processed using a semi-washed (honey) method with subsequent sun-drying, which transfers the sweetness and fruitiness of the parchment skin to the beans. Roasted using a traditional long-drum roasting process. Low in acidity with flavor notes of dried fruit, honey, vanilla, and chocolate.

Blank Roast

Blank Roast is a coffee manufactory nestled in Neustadt an der Weinstraße, right on Germany's famous Wine Route — an unusual but fitting location for a roaster that draws on terroir-thinking. Master roaster Holger K. Blank has been at the helm since 2007, using a beautifully restored 1930s roasting machine fitted with modern controls. His unique approach includes adding organic grapevines from the surrounding region during the roasting process, which adds moisture and coaxes out extra aroma from the beans. The result is a distinctly smooth, aromatic cup with notes of vanilla, almond, and cinnamon developed during the 15-to-20-minute slow roast. Customers can watch the entire roasting process from their café seats while enjoying breakfast and freshly brewed coffee — a true sensory experience.
