Bright Stars/Dark Sky

Bright Stars / Dark Sky

DARK ROAST ESPRESSO BLEND · BRAZILIAN & ETHIOPIAN

Some campsites aren't famous for their trails. They're famous for what you see when the fire burns low and you tilt your head back — a sky so dark it almost hums, stars so thick they blur at the edges. This coffee was built for that moment.

A deep, velvety dark roast with notes of pipe tobacco, toasted marshmallow, bittersweet chocolate, and a hint of seared orange. Full-bodied and malty, it's the kind of cup that lingers. Exceptional as espresso, drip, cold brew, or in milk-based drinks.

Blended from a naturally processed Brazilian Caturra — smooth, sweet, full-bodied — and a washed Ethiopian Heirloom that adds just enough brightness to keep it alive. Roasted slow on our all-electric, zero-emission Bellwether roaster: the lowest-carbon coffee roasting system in the world.

 Coffee With a Cause — A portion of every Bright Stars / Dark Sky sale supports Dark Sky International, the leading nonprofit working to reduce light pollution and protect natural darkness for stargazers, wildlife, and wanderers everywhere.
