Woodsman Blend is a rustic, earthy blend sourced from multiple origins including Huehuetenango and Chiapas in Guatemala and Mexico, and the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea. The coffee is fully washed and grown at altitudes between 1,200 and 1,800 meters. It features herbal, chocolate, and malt flavor notes with medium acidity and medium body. This blend is inspired by Alaska's great outdoors.
Black Cup Cafe Del Mundo traces its roots to 1975, when Perry Merkel began roasting on a small air roaster in his shed in Anchorage's Spenard neighbourhood, making it Alaska's first coffee roaster. The business was acquired in 2011 by Brad Bigelow and Tim Gravel of Kaladi Brothers Coffee, who rebranded it as Black Cup and renovated the space on East Benson Boulevard. The roasting facility on Brayton Drive in Anchorage continues a legacy of over 50 years of continuous operation, with the team evaluating countless coffee samples from worldwide producers and emphasising transparency with farm partners. The café features a Modbar espresso system installed during the 2016 renovation.
