Santa Cruz Island Blend N.G.

Vendor: Santa Barbara Roasting Co.

Santa Cruz Island Blend is our Naturally Grown Espresso, and the N.G. in the name stands for exactly that: Naturally Grown.

The beans are Organic, Shade Grown and Fair Trade, from Indonesia and South America. We roast them three ways, Full City (our light), Viennese (our medium) and French (our dark), then blend them together. Smooth caramel and chocolate undertones give it the foundation for an excellent espresso, and it's wonderfully full bodied as a drip coffee too.

The decaf version is made with the Swiss Water Process, also known as SWP, so decaf drinkers get the same blend without the caffeine.

You can order it in 12 oz or 5 lb bags, regular or decaf, whole bean or ground for drip, paper cone or French press. There isn't an espresso grind option for this one, so espresso drinkers should choose whole bean and grind fine at home. Curious how we source these? Read more about our Naturally Grown coffees.

A 3 oz bag also comes in our Light & Medium Roast Sample Pack.
