SPECIAL BLENDS:

THE ART OF BLENDING COFFEE


Special Blends:

Special Blends can deliver what very few "stand alone" coffees have: just the right acidity, or "snap", the pleasing spice and fruit notes, AND scrumptious syrupy body!

Some say that no single varietal will do, however, the Antigua region of Guatemala, the Tarrazu region and Doka Estates of Costa Rica, the majestic Kenyan coffee and possibly some select Ethiopians can at least come close to running such a gamut of extraordinary balance.

And So Enter Special Blends!

Blending is the art of combining two or more varietals to create a unique coffee that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Someone blending for flavor would think about each bean and what it has to offer and then choose another varietal or varietals to fill in the missing notes, with the goal of creating a glorious symphony of flavor.

The Perfect Cup



Sound like fun? If creating special blends turns you on then you're in for yet another wonderful treat in your journey through the coffees of the world!

As you discover what your favorite varietals are, you can begin your own exploration of experimental combinations to create your very own special blend.

If you become good at blending, as ahem... we have, here at Lakota Coffee Company, each of the characteristics in the chosen coffees will be wondrously enhanced and with some effort and maybe, a bit of good fortune, you will have truly made
"The Perfect Cup" your very own!

If you love coffee the way we do, this can become a highly satisfying hobby and a great way to make a hit at friend and family get togethers! "Yeh, I know its incredible and yes, (tongue in cheek) I created this blend!"

Creating blends has definitely been one of the more satisfying endeavors in my coffee roasting career and as Lakota owner Skip DuCharme would tell you, blends play an indispensable part of owning a successful coffee house.

If blending isn't for you, never fear, there are plenty of great blends for you to explore including favorites in our coffee house and many other great coffee houses around the world.

As a coffee snob in training, you would certainly be well advised to explore the exciting world of inspired coffee blends!
