Saddlerock Blend combines Costa Rican and Ethiopian coffees into a smooth, approachable cup that appeals to both new espresso drinkers and seasoned enthusiasts. Roasted by Portland's Mela Coffee Roasting Co., this blend delivers milk chocolate and caramel richness up front, with a subtle stonefruit sweetness emerging as the cup cools. It's complex enough to showcase your machine's capabilities while remaining forgiving across brew methods — espresso, pour-over, or drip.
