Coffee Description
The balanced flavor profile makes it perfect for espresso drinks like lattes and cappuccinos, where it pairs beautifully with milk while maintaining its sweet, chocolatey character. For those who prefer drip coffee with milder acidity, Thaddeus has your back—it makes an excellent pour-over or drip coffee that's smooth, approachable, and delicious.
Our suggested espresso brewing parameters are 17-19 grams in, 35-42 grams out, with an extraction time of 24-29 seconds. These parameters produce balanced shots with sweet, chocolatey notes and pleasant fruit character. The blend's versatility means you can dial it in for your specific espresso setup or adjust your brew method for drip coffee without sacrificing quality or flavor.

We named it after Thaddeus Stevens, the legendary Pennsylvania congressman and fierce advocate for civil rights, because this coffee embodies that same spirit of inclusivity and conviction. It’s a blend built for everyone.
