It’s time once again to welcome another new partner to the SCG lineup of outstanding coffee roasters. Today we’re excited to introduce Spyhouse Coffee Roasting! Spyhouse Coffee Roasting comes to us from the chilly climes of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Spyhouse describes themselves as focused on building partnerships. Partnerships with distributors, producers, and customers. These partnerships paired with a finely honed skill for roasting has resulted in excellent, reliable coffee.
The Blends
Spyhouse Coffee’s house blend is Orion. Featuring notes of chocolate and sweet fruit, this is a simple but enjoyable roast that is perfect as an espresso or drip blend. A roaster’s house blend really should tie their coffee program together. We’re happy to say that Orion absolutely does so for Spyhouse. This is a tasty, adaptable, and easy to brew blend that does everything a house blend should do! Bold and the Beautiful offers a richer, darker blend of beans that is especially excellent as a strong drip brew. With notes of baker’s chocolate, black walnut, and creme brulee, this roast isn’t heavy on smoky flavors, but they’re present. Like a refined and extra flavorful cup of diner coffee, Bold and the Beautiful is perfect for anyone looking for a heavier coffee to have as a morning drip brew.
Surprising Decaf
We’ll be honest, good decaf can be tough to come by. Thankfully, Spyhouse Coffee’s Colombia Decaf Organic is quite good! With far more depth than what we typically see in a decaf, this is a satisfying coffee for the late afternoon or caffeine avoidant! We recommend it in a drip brew or a pour over, but either way we’re sure fans of decaf will enjoy. And none of this gets into Spyhouse Coffee’s full range of single origins. We have a few to choose from now, and we’ll be evaluating more to rotate in! We hope you’ll give Spyhouse Coffee a try, and if you do we’re sure you’ll find them just as tasty as we do.
