We all know coffee is the universal elixir, fueling everything from morning meetings to late-night study sessions. But did you know that each region around the globe imparts its own unique flair to the beans? From the rich, wine-like depth of Colombian coffees to the intriguing spiciness of Guatemalan roasts, there's a world of flavor to explore. Just like us here in Atlanta! I wanted to create something truly unique, something that said “this is Atlanta baby!”
Blending coffees from different regions allows us to craft a flavor profile that's entirely unique. A well-made blend highlights the best qualities of each component, resulting in a symphony of flavors in every cup. Here at San Francisco Coffee, we love our single-origin beans, but our blends are where we let our creativity shine, offering you a coffee experience that's truly special.
Take our Highland Blend, for example. This meticulously crafted dark roast is a favorite among coffee enthusiasts in Atlanta and across the U.S.A. Inspired by the vibrant Virginia-Highland neighborhood, this blend features hints of roasted hazelnuts, luscious vanilla bean, and dried cherry. Its robust body and well-rounded profile give us a satisfying cup that delights the senses.
Why the Highland Blend? We aimed to capture the cozy, welcoming feel of the Virginia-Highland neighborhood, where we roast all our beans! We wanted to capture a place where you can stroll around, feel at ease, and know your neighbors. Whether it’s summer or fall, a cup of Highland Blend makes you feel at home. It’s also our go-to for cold brew! While we’d love to see you at our shop for a refreshing San Fran cold brew, you can grab a bag of Highland Blend and brew it at home whenever you like.
At San Francisco Coffee, we offer six distinct blends alongside our single-origin coffees. Each blend has a unique character and special profile. People often ask, "What's your favorite blend?" or "What's your favorite drink?" As a traditionalist, I love a black coffee or a double shot of espresso. Choosing a favorite bean? That’s like picking a favorite child! I lean towards dark roasts, but there’s a perfect coffee for every moment.
And don’t forget! We offer a subscription service. Enjoy a regular supply of our Highland Blend, or whatever bean you’d like, delivered right to your doorstep. Indulge in the top-tier quality that has made us a favorite among coffee lovers nationwide. Experience that perfect balance of robust flavor, medium acidity, and slight snap. Elevate your coffee ritual with our Highland Blend today.
I’ll be diving into each of our coffee blends over the coming months to help you find the one that suits you best. Until next time, stay caffeinated, friends!
