This blend combines Arabica coffees from Colombia and Brazil, processed using the wet method. It is a medium-dark roasted coffee with a bold, rich, and full-bodied character. The flavor profile features chocolate fudge and butterscotch notes, creating a decadent coffee designed to pair with roasted nuts and sweet treats. Created in partnership with Shea's Performing Arts Center to celebrate the theatre's 100th birthday, with a portion of proceeds donated to the center.
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.
