Gemini is a 50/50 duo-blend coffee inspired by the twins. This blend combines two distinct components in equal measure to create a complex and structured cup. The roast level preserves juicy, high-toned acidity and floral notes while balancing with depth of sweetness, body, and spice. Flavor notes include melon, stone fruit, bright floral honey, pear, candied citrus, buttery fried pastry, caramel, creamy chocolate, toasted nuts, and warming spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. The blend components rotate as different growing regions move into harvest seasons, creating gentle flavor shifts while maintaining consistency.
Christian Johnson founded Spyhouse Coffee Roasters in 2000 in Minneapolis, and the company became a farm to cup operation in 2013 when it opened a dedicated roasting facility in the city's Northeast arts district. Spyhouse has earned two Good Food Awards, for its Juan Domingo from Guatemala and Dimtu Tero from Ethiopia, and its staff are active across Specialty Coffee Association events and the Barista Guild Executive Council. The roastery was acquired by FairWave Coffee Collective in 2021, expanding its reach while maintaining the sourcing and roasting standards that built its reputation in the Twin Cities over more than two decades.
