Next Roasted Espresso 7/7: Sweet Maria's 10 Speed Blend
Product Overview
Product Overview
Sure, green coffee is our specialty. But we also roast two delicious single-origin coffees every other week, as well as a limited amount of darker roasts for espresso. Each bag of roasted coffee is weighed to 1 FULL pound, not some chintzy 12 ounce bag! We roast every other week, and all orders must be received by 11:59pm PST the night before in order for us to account for your order in our roast batches.
This coffee will be roasted 7/7, so please place your order by 3:00 pm PST on 7/6.
Roasted to Full City: Syrupy sweetness in the cup that rounds out with bright citrus. Good for Espresso!
Never miss another roast week by signing up for our $40 roasted coffee subscription service, where you can enjoy 2 lbs of freshly roasted coffee from our Probat roaster at Sweet Maria's Coffee every other week. With a roasted coffee subscription we ship you two different single origin coffees roasted between a City-Full City roast. We choose the coffees so you don't have to!

Origin & Farm Notes
Coffee and cycling have enjoyed a decades long connection that likely stretches back well before the early days of coffee company-sponsored cycling events (see FAEMA professional cycling team of the late 1960's). Whether it's coffee's burst of caffeine energy before the ride, or winding down with an espresso at the end of a tour, coffee has been a sort of touchstone for bringing together cyclists at 2-wheeled events and casual excursions. Our 10 Speed Blend celebrates the classic lines of the 10 Speed bicycle. Celebrated for it's agile footprint and versatility, it quickly became the steed of choice for commuter cyclists and racers alike. With versatility at the front of our minds, the 10 Speed Blend uses coffees that can be roasted light or dark, and that show well under any brew method or as espresso. You could say it's a blend that works great in any gear! Using coffees from similar altitudes aids in roast consistency, something that can be especially tricky when roasting pre-blended coffee light. We will mostly use wet process coffee, but have incorporated honey coffee in the past when it suits the flavor profile. We're looking to regions in East Africa and Central America for dense coffees that are classic-toned, balanced sweet and bittering flavors, and that carry some acidity too. The latter part can be snappy at City, or rounded and bittersweet at Full City. Don't be afraid to shift through a few different roat level to find the perfect cruising gear that suits your taste!
