COFFEE STORY
Bottleneck is all about celebrating seasonality in coffee to maintain a consistent flavour profile year-round. Balancing different seasonal coffee components is about selecting coffees from different farms or co-ops combined to complement and enhance each other. We always try to land on the blend version that will be interesting and complex but also approachable and familiar enough to be shared with anyone. Fun fact about Bottleneck: The name was inspired by the heroic rescue of a baby raccoon behind our Dundas cafe (reach out if you want the full story).

Smooth and balanced

Coffee contains the nutty and a slight “dark” coffee taste, which I like a lot!

Undrinkable

October roast date, drank in November. Wasted an entire bag trying short/long espresso, milk drinks, americano, and french press to get something that wasn't off putting. This coffee tasted dull and acidic. Bean quality was also low and produced a lot of chaff. Something went wrong producing this coffee and I'm not sure what.
