Why we love this coffee

Comfort, comfort, comfort!! We love it because it’s a rich, and heavy cup with a creamy texture, that's developed enough to bring out layers of deep chocolate, toasted nut and molasses flavours without imparting any of those pesky charcoal notes.

COFFEE STORY
Detour Dark is all about roast development, built on our love of comforting flavours in coffee. Typically combining coffees from Central and South America, we focus solely on caramelization and roast, rather than the origin with a focus on the flavours developed through the caramelization process during the roast, without the impact of heavy charcoal or smoky attributes. Choosing high-grown coffees that lend themselves to a longer roast and hotter temperature while maintaining structure, balance, and sweetness is key to creating a big, rich, full-bodied coffee.

Excellent winter morning cup.

So good. Nice and dark without being over the edge for me. I prefer Aeropress over V60, but both were good. Would definitely buy again.

Shipping Company

The process was okay except the SHIPPING COMPANY. They lie about shipping time and they had a reason due to outside factors. It was nothing wrong with the weather or traffic. Please for the future use normal shipping companies.

A Dark Delight

Amazing when you want that dark in the rotation! Very chocolatey notes and not at all bitter. Wonderful in milky beverages.

Great coffee

I like Darker Roasts and this is one of the better ones I’ve had, and it’s freshly roasted to order (roasted the day before it came in the mail).

Brewed well in my V60, strong and bold :)
