Our Signature Blend
Crimson Cup buys, roasts, and packages only Specialty Grade Class 1 coffee beans. These beans represent the top 5% of harvested coffee.
Freshly Roasted to Order
The shorter the timeline from roasting to brewing, the better the taste of the coffee in your cup. Since Crimson Cup roasts and packages on demand, we deliver the freshest coffee possible. In addition, our packaging keeps the dangers to coffee (heat, light, and air) away from the coffee bean. Try this at home: compare the smell of the powerful aroma of Crimson Cup coffee vs. our competitors. The freshness of our coffee is one reason you will enjoy an awesome cup.
Why Blend Coffees?
Like wine, coffee offers a variety of subtle taste differences depending on where the coffee was grown and how light or dark it is roasted. By blending different coffee beans, you have an infinite choice of flavors to match your palate exactly. Blending is truly an art, not a science. It is equivalent to how a master chef blends ingredients to create memorable cuisine. By complementing the strengths of one coffee with the strengths of another, we get the best of all worlds. And you get a superior cup of coffee.
Crimson Cup & Armando's Blend®: A Love Story of a Different Kind
Creating masterful blends is one area where Crimson Cup stands out from other roasters. In 1992, Armando (our Chief Espresso Officer), Greg (our Founder), and Chris (our Roast Master) spent seven months creating a blend of coffees that surpassed all others. The result is our signature blend, worthy of the title "Armando's Blend".
