Seasonal Blend, make it like we do at Legend.
When you know what you want, and what you want is pure deliciousness.. Bright, fruity, balanced, delivered to your door.
Best Brewed: With or without milk
Tastes Like: Cherry, Praline, Milk Chocolate
Components: 66% El Meridiano A, Colombia / 33% Velo De Novia AA, Peru
This is our lighter, more modern blend. It features two rotating high quality AA+ coffees. It's clean, sweet and super smashable. The Seasonal Blend is designed to work with any brew method. Served with milk it's milkshake sweet, and served black it's clean with a bright fruity acidity.
As espresso, we'd aim for 21g of coffee, 50-52g of espresso and a 29-33 second extraction. She's as versatile as they come and will work in Stovetop, Plunger, Aeropress and V60.
