The Hartford Espresso Blend - Dark Roast
The Hartford Blend is a Maple Leaf Coffee Roasters creation which has been part of our offerings since shortly after we opened in 2018.
This blend of coffee starts off with a deep, bold, slightly smoky flavor plus a touch of sweetness and finishes with a smooth, dark chocolate taste.
WHERE THIS COFFEE WORKS
The Hartford Blend has featured in many beers with local brewery partners, mostly in a number of stouts. We also have a number of espresso addicts that swear by this coffee for its balance and richness in espresso prep.
During all months of the year, this coffee will make a rich, flavorful and fuller bodied cold brew and is our default choice for our canned cold brew.
SUGGESTED PREPARATION
We loved this blend as drip and it works perfectly as espresso. It also works in a french press and makes a great cold brew.
Availability
This coffee is available all year in 12oz, 16oz and 5lb bags.
