Blue Orchid Blend
$ 16.00
Blue Orchid is Huckleberry’s house espresso blend. We serve this coffee every day in our cafes, and it is designed to be approachable, both as espresso and as a brewed coffee, with and without milk. If you’ve ever had a great latte experience at one of Huckleberry’s cafes, Blue Orchid was the base.
While the Blue Orchid blend does change frequently, we try to maintain a sweet, full-bodied, chocolate and caramel flavor profile by using Central and South American coffees specifically chosen for those qualities. This is great tasting comfort coffee, and is a well-rounded crowd pleaser, especially if some of that crowd likes cream in their cup, or is still making the transition from darker roast profiles into specialty coffee. We love intense floral aromatics, but some mornings we just want the chocolate, toffee, and a bit of milk in our mug, and for those days, Blue Orchid is our go-to.
The current version of Blue Orchid is a blend of Brazil Fazenda Sao Benedito Natural and a washed coffee from smallholder farmers in the La Coipa area of Peru's San Ignacio province.

Civitas Blend
$ 16.00
Don't call it a dark roast! Okay, okay...we won't.
How about we call it Civitas and say it's "a slightly darker roast with slightly longer development"? Yea, that sounds cool!
In either case, we're excited about this one! Huck has long believed that we should (or could) be just as proud of our darker & more developed coffees, as we are of our lighter offerings.
It just took us a while to find a roast profile that still checked all the boxes for us!
Our Civitas blend is meant for the fan of a full bodied coffee with notes of dark sugars, chocolate, toffee, and a great nuttiness -- not unlike our Blue Orchid Blend, but a hair darker than that.

Colombia Casablanca
$ 22.00
While Huck loves to work with the same producers year after year, it’s always fun to bring in new coffees that have found their way into our hearts. Enter Hacienda Casablanca, nestled in the Santander region of Colombia. When our head roaster, Shelby, won the 2019 US Coffee Roasters Championship, part of the prize was a trip to Colombia with Ally Coffee. Casablanca was one of the many impressive farms from that trip.
Casablanca is aptly named for the lavish, white Spanish villa built on the farm during colonial times. Liliana Caballero grew up in the area, and always had an affinity for the old white house and the land it sat on, so when she purchased the villa and a portion of the old hacienda in the early 2000s, she kept named her land after the beautiful white house..
When Liliana first purchased the 20 hectare farm, it was mostly planted with the rust-resistant Tabi variety. This failed to live up to Liliana’s high quality standards, and with the aim of improving the coffee’s cup quality, Liliana has consistently worked to renovate the farm, replacing Tabi with Colombia, Castillo, Bourbon and Gesha trees--not a cheap investment.
More than 10 years have passed since Liliana purchased Hacienda Casablanca, and her efforts have not gone unnoticed. Beyond the farm’s well-known beauty, Casablanca earned some well-deserved fame by competing in the 2016 National Yara Championship (a coffee quality competition) and taking first place!
During the Champs Trip, Shelby tasted coffees from several farms, but kept comparing the others to the sweet and fruity coffees from Casablanca. This particular coffee is a blend of Castillo and Gesha varieties, and with notes of brown sugar, raspberry, lime, and macadamia nut, it doesn’t disappoint.

Colombia El Desarollo
$ 19.00
Remember when Prince had a label dispute, used an unpronounceable symbol for his name and had to call himself The Artist Formerly known as Prince? This is kinda like that, minus the label dispute. Think of El Desarollo as The Coffee formerly Known as Matambo. And while not impossible, if you're having trouble with the pronunciation, this is not your favorite chocolate-covered caramel; it's Spanish, it's pronounced des-a-roy-o, and it means development.
Legend has it that long ago, a giant named Matambo lay to rest in Huila, forming a massive mountain that dominates the region's landscape. The nearby town is now known as Gigante, and while we've called this coffee Matambo in the past, it felt like time for a refresh, and a name that honors the farmers who produce this coffee.
The best Colombias - and particularly the best Huilas - pull off a balance between approachability and exciting flavors that few other origins can match. This latest crop is a perfect example of that balance, popping with red berry and plum fruitiness, but rounding out the pop with dark honey and buttery pie crust sweetness.
Huck has been purchasing and roasting coffee from the El Desarollo Coffee Growers Association for four years now, and year after year the coffee is dependably complex, sweet, and balanced. We had the pleasure of visiting these growers in August of 2017 with Caravela, one of our favorite sourcing partners who we work with throughout Latin America. Read more about that visit here to see why we're stoked for yet another great year with the El Desarollo Growers Association and the long game with these growers and Caravela in Colombia.
We think El Desarollo has something for everyone. Plenty of traditional coffee flavors and sweetness for those who prefer a more approachable or milk-friendly mug, but also packing juicy, fruity flavors and high-end brightness to please folks who prefer more adventurous coffees. Year 4 of this gem from Gigante, and we’re looking forward to brewing it for the next few months!

East Timor Letefoho
$ 18.00
This is Huck's second year roasting coffee from farmers in East Timor's Letefoho district, and this year’s crop delivers big sweetness and approachable flavors.
Coffees from the Pacific islands can be big, bold, and in better cases, a good kind of earthy. But the wet hulled process that’s common in the region - in which the coffee’s protective parchment layer is removed before drying - lends itself to premature fade and vegetal, funky flavors. So, we specifically seek out washed coffees from the islands, dried in their parchment to preserve the goodness and keep out the funk. The tiny country of East Timor has been on the comeup the past few years, in large part by focusing on fully washed coffees.
Cafe Brisa Serena is a social enterprise that works with farmers in East Timor's Letefoho district to improve growing and processing practices, obtain organic certification, and access the specialty market. This particular coffee comes from organic-certified family farms in the tiny village of Eratoi, and is all washed on-farm, rather than at a centralized mill.
If you like your coffees big and approachable, this is the ticket. It’s not a dark roast, but we do develop this coffee just a touch further than most of our single origins to accentuate its body and chocolate flavors. Beyond the big body and chocolate, raisin, walnut and pastry sweetness round out the cup. Letefoho is nuanced, but at the same time traditional, approachable, and pleasing with (cow or alternate) milk or on its own.

Ecuador Bosque de Marfil
$ 20.00
Bosque de Marfil is back for its second year in the Huck lineup, and we’re excited to brew this one up again over the winter and spring. Black cherry, nougat, and molasses flavors dominate a complex, but sweet and comforting cup.
Bosque de Marfil is the name of a forest in the center of Ecuador’s southernmost Loja province, and the 44 farmers who produce this coffee call this forest home. Sitting high in the Limo mountain range, the bosque provides great shade for coffee production, and abundant natural resources that help these farmers earn secondary income in the months between one coffee harvest and the next.
As is the case with many of our Latin American coffees, we’re excited to source Bosque de Marfil through Caravela Coffee. Caravela helps ensure us dependably great coffees, and provides farmers with access to on-farm assistance plus fair, transparent pricing structures. It’s a win-win, and it makes them one of our favorite partners in Latin America.
As far as the cup goes, it’s a sweet, delicious ride. Cherry cola sweetness, molasses sweet-spice, and a touch of green apple brightness, with a syrupy body. It’ll hold up to milk just great, and we’ll be brewing it plenty as a single origin espresso, but we’re also jazzed to drink this black - it’s a lively and juicy everyday drinker.
HUCK x PORT SIDE - Send Coffee & Pastries to Front-Line Workers
Sold Out
** UPDATE : We're pressing pause on this for the moment. Your support has been overwhelming, and we will be fulfilling every order placed, but we were beginning to to schedule too far out...so far out, in fact, that our cafe's will likely be open again -- making the organization/fulfillment of these donations a little trickier! THANK YOU! **
Wanting to do something...wanting to do anything, HUCK called up our best buds at Port Side to brainstorm. Here's what we came up with:
Help us send front-line workers tasty & vital coffee pick-me-ups, along with delicious & sustaining pastries!
There's a lot of us & you who are at home...staying safe & distanced & finding clever ways to keep spirits up! There's also a lot of people for whom that isn't the case -- they are working as hard as ever, on the front lines, to see us through this Covid 19 pandemic by keeping us healthy, driving our city buses, filling our grocery stores, farming the food we still eat, etc.
We can't imagine what that must feel like, and what kind of stress it brings...
What we can do is brew tasty coffee, bake yummy pastries and bring them in large quantities to brighten the day/night of front-line workers in Denver, CO!
We will deliver the coffee in 96oz Joe-To-Go's (disposable carafes) with cups, lids, and sugar. We will deliver the pastries (cookies, banana breads, scones, muffins) in lidded boxes. Donate if you're able & what you can -- if you purchase an individual coffee/pastry, the $4.50 will go towards filling a carafe/box, or $35.00 will purchase an entire carafe/box at once.
Full transparency, while we're doing this primarily to feel helpful & useful...it is also a way for HUCK to generate some revenue & keep our business open during this unprecedented economic crisis!
Fine Print / Details
* We have never done this before, so we're going to just figure it out as best we can -- as orders come in. We will keep this page updated as things get figured out!
* Our current plan is to do delivery Tuesday & Thursday (& maybe Saturday), depending on volume.
* We will likely wait until we have 3 carafe's worth of coffee AND 3 pastry boxes ordered before making a delivery. We want to make it worth everyone's while!
* We will fairly rotate between bringing donations to health care professionals (hospitals), grocery store staff break rooms, RTD facilities, etc. There are strict visitation rules in place at a lot of these places, so we will call ahead and plan...not just show up!
* If you have a specific place you'd like to send CARAFES of coffee or BOXES of pastries (we won't be able to do this for individual items), please email us directly with your order number, and we will try our BEST!
Email: info@huckleberryroasters.com
***also, we'd like to shout out to our coffee buds at Andytown Coffee in San Francisco, Augie's Coffee in Redlands, and others for leading the way on this! ***

Phantom Limb Blend
$ 17.00
Phantom Limb is the wildest of Huckleberry’s blends. We conceived Phantom Limb to focus on fruit-forward flavors that one might not expect from a traditional espresso or drip blend.
Phantom Limb is an East African showcase, highlighting both natural and washed coffees. Phantom Limb will taste great as espresso and drip, but is intended to showcase the unexpected, unique flavors of its components - jam and berries from the natural process and the lemonade, clean, floral goodness we love in washed Africans - rather than adhere to anyone’s idea of a “traditional” espresso. If you want to think about it in terms of candy, Blue Orchid is your Tootsie Roll or Milky Way, Phantom is your bag of Jolly Ranchers or pack of Starbursts.
Even though we tend to use Phantom Limb as espresso in the two Huckleberry cafes, most often for straight shots and the smaller milk beverages, it’ll still taste great as a brewed coffee at home. Expect floral undertones, tangy brightness, and jammy, fruity sweetness, .
Current Blend: Ethiopia Yukro Washed, Ethiopia Debo Washed, Uganda Sipi Falls Natural
Current Tasting Notes: raspberry and blackberry, lemon brightness, floral aromatics, subtle cocoa.
Many people suffer from phantom pain, limb loss or limb difference (including customers of ours) and therefore with every purchase of this blend we try to raise awareness and money by donating a portion of proceeds to local amputee support organizations. All of our coffee blends are named after songs that have significance for our company's history. Phantom Limb is a song by The Shins that was one of the first conversations that Koan and Mark ever had.
Here's a link to one of the three organizations that this blend supports.

Port Side 2500 Larimer Blend
$ 22.00
Like delicious food, coffee is more than just a morning fix. It’s how we meet friends and discover community.
Rwanda Kirorero
$ 21.00
Winter and spring are a time for Southern Hemisphere coffees to shine, and this season we're excited to offer two coffees from Rwanda. We've roasted the last of Ejo Heza, but are following that up with another cooperative-produced coffee: Kirorero.
It's been a few years, but Kirorero is Huck's second coffee from COOPAC cooperative. Some of y'all may remember Kigeyo from a few winters past. COOPAC was formed in 2001 with just over 110 farmers, but now boasts over 8,000 small farmers split among several washing stations - including Kirorero and Kigeyo - on the shores of Lake Kivu. COOPAC has long been a leader in promoting organic coffee farming in Rwanda, so we're excited to have the cooperative back in our linuep.
One of the reasons we love Rwandan coffee is that the Lake Kivu area is planted almost entirely in Bourbon, a coffee variety that lends a deep, sugary, syrupy sweetness. Beyond variety, rich red clay soil, meticulous picking and sorting, careful processing all work together to layer that sweetness with sparkling acidity and complexity. In comparison to our other Rwandan and Burundian coffees this year, Kirorero is a softer take on the fruit we tasted in Ejo Heza and Gitwe. We're picking up notes of yellow pear and dried cranberry, balanced with sweet graham cracker and baking spice.

Skeleton Key Decaf
$ 17.00
We love coffee for a lot of reasons. We love the flavors of a cup that's been sourced, roasted, and brewed with care, and we love sitting down with friends and a few mugs. Most of the time, we love that subtle kick of caffeine, too.
Sometimes though, we like to have a bit of coffee when we're already way too wide awake, so offering a great decaffeinated coffee is important to us at Huckleberry. Skeleton Key is the same decaf coffee that we serve in both of our Huckleberry's cafes, and we're finally bagging it for you to bring home and enjoy after dinner, or whenever you're craving coffee without the jitters.
Skeleton Key is a seasonally-rotating coffee chosen for versatility, with chocolatey and nutty sweetness and a round body. It works well as espresso or drip, with or without milk, and we only use Swiss Water Processed or Mountain Water Processed beans.
The current version of Skeleton Key is a Mountain Water Processed coffee from Peru.

Sound and Vision Blend
$ 17.00
Who doesn’t like David Bowie? We like David Bowie.
Bowie's pretty much always the right choice. And while there are plenty of moments when we reach for that Misfits record and a cup of bright Kenyan coffee or some NSFW early 90's gangsta rap and a cup of slightly savory coffee from Sulawesi, we also value both music and coffee that's always the right choice, no matter the audience. Something that'll please both the classic rock fans and the hipsterest hipsters. In our blend lineup, that’s where Sound & Vision comes in. It’s not quite as poppy and in-your-face as Phantom Limb or many of our single origins, but we also wanted to give folks a bit more intrigue than tried-and-true Blue Orchid.
So, we’ve started out with a chocolatey, full-bodied Latin American base very similar to Blue Orchid, and kicked it up just a tiny bit with a small amount of natural-processed East African goodness. A tiny bit of fruit and brightness to keep the more discerning palates satisfied, but also plenty of comforting, traditional flavors for folks who want their coffee to taste “bold” or “like coffee, damnit.” Confident on its own, but also plays very well with milk.
Do you like cold brew, too? This also happens to be the blend that we use in our kegged cold brew, so if you’re too far away for us to deliver a keg, don’t have a tap system, or just want to do it yourself for any other reason, Sound & Vision is our go-to cold brew suggestion. What about espresso? We're pulling shots of S+V as our house espresso at our Dairy Block café in downtown Denver. Whether it's a shot, a cup full of ice, or a filter brew for a crowd, Sound and Vision is an easy choice.
Current Blend: 40% Brazil Fazenda Sao Benedito, 50% Peru Laurel Village, 10% Ethiopia Banko Dhadato Natural

Uganda Sipi Falls Natural
$ 19.00
2020 marks Huck's third harvest roasting coffee from farmers in Gamatui Village in the Sipi Falls region of Eastern Uganda. This year we're starting these coffees out with a natural, and will follow up with washed and honey-processed coffees from the same farmers once they land in the US a bit later.
Last year was our first year roasting up a natural from Uganda, and we've been looking forward to this for a few months now. It rivals some of our favorites from Ethiopia, but thanks in part to different coffee varieties (SL28 and SL34), this one carries a bit more chocolate and body.
Sipi Falls is one of Uganda's most famous landmarks, and much of the country's best coffee comes from the region. Huck specifically seeks out the coffees from Gamatui, the highest altitude community that delivers coffee to the Sipi Falls Washing Station in the town of Chema. That high altitude, combined with Sipi Falls Washing Station's impressive attention to detail, yields complex, delicious, and juicy goodness in the cup.
Uganda is an up-and-coming coffee-producing country, but the coffees from Sipi Falls and Gamatui village have quickly become coffees we look forward to each year. We’re stoked to showcase and support the improvements in Ugandan coffee, but more importantly, we’re just stoked to have this coffee in our mugs. Sipi Falls Natural packs dark fruit flavors of concord grape and berry jam, rounded out with dark chocolate sweetness and a round body. If we had to pick a natural to hold us over until fresh crop Ethiopias (and we do!), we're hard-pressed to find a better one than this.
