This award-winning blend combines the fruitiest coffees from multiple origins including Colombia, Dominican Republic, and African coffees. The blend uses natural process and honey process coffees, where natural process involves drying the coffee cherry on the bean to impart fruitiness, while honey process leaves some fruit on the bean with its mucilage for added sweetness. Roasted to a City Roast level, the coffee features fruity flavor notes with a hint of chocolate. All coffees in the blend are traceable to farm. Won a medal at Golden Bean North America in 2016.
Blind Coffee Roasters was founded in October 2012 by Tim Howard, whose coffee journey began in 1983 as an associate roaster in San Francisco's coffee industry. Based in Hillsboro, Oregon, the roastery operates a custom designed 20 kilogram machine from Primo Roasting Equipment in Long Beach and specialises in low acidity coffee using medium City Roast profiles that preserve origin driven characteristics. The approach has earned 49 medals at the Golden Bean The Americas competition over the past decade, including a finish as the top Oregon roaster in 2023 and 9th overall in North America. Howard won his first gold medal in 2024 and followed it with a bronze at the Golden Bean World Championship the same year.
