This organic medium-dark roast delivers a full-bodied cup with bold notes of smoke, cacao nibs, roasted citrus, and earthiness. It features a bittersweet depth with low to medium acidity and a smooth finish. The coffee is made from 100% Arabica beans and has undergone mold testing. Originally crafted by Blind Dog's founding roasters and inspired by Death Valley, this blend is versatile for espresso, French press, or drip brewing. The roast offers earthy and roasted aromatics with subtle sweetness.
Blind Dog Coffee was founded in 2007 by Mark Berry in Gardnerville, Nevada. Mark developed cancer as a young child that ultimately threatened his eyesight, and by age 49 he became legally blind, ending a 30 year career and prompting him to learn professional coffee roasting. The roastery uses 100% USDA Certified Organic beans with a GMO free, no additives guarantee, and sources ethically in support of fair labour practices. A portion of all proceeds goes to the Northern Nevada Children's Cancer Foundation, reflecting Mark's personal connection to childhood cancer. The business operates a roastery headquarters in Gardnerville alongside a coffee shop and café in nearby Minden.
