black flag is a dark roast blend from heave ho coffee co, combining beans from colombia and brazil. the extended roast time brings out brown sugar sweetness and a solid cocoa backbone, with the bitterness you'd expect from this roast level kept in balance by the natural sweetness of the two origins. it suits brewing methods that complement body and depth, think french press, moka pot, or espresso, where the darker character can shine without tasting thin. grind a little coarser than usual for french press to avoid over-extraction, or pull it as a straight espresso shot or the base of a milk drink.
