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, roasted to work with or without milk, as espresso or brewed coffee.
In the past we’ve always roastedSwiss Water Processed or Mountain Water Processed beans for Skeleton Key, but over the past few years a new process, using sugarcane-derived ethyl acetate, has become an increasingly prevalent and chemically-safe alternative. And while water process can only occur at two plants in the world, in large batches, Colombian producers can produce sugarcane decafs in-country, in smaller batches.
The current version of Skeleton Key was grown by the Mustafa family in Risaralda, Colombia, and sugarcane-processed by La Real Expedición Botánica, a collective of farmers we work with for a few choice microlots. It has just a tiny bit more fruit than our usual decafs - we pick up some subtle raisin and dried cherry - but packs all the chocolate, caramel, and sweet nuttiness we always highlight in Skeleton Key.
The current version of Skeleton Key is a sugarcane-decaffeinated coffee from Finca Mustafa in Risaralda, Colombia.

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 Cachoeira da Grama and a washed coffee from longterm partners Aprocafé el Grano in Guatemala.

We know your type. We love you and want to be you! You like taking motorcycle trips with nothing more than a rolled blanket to sleep on.

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 Worka Sakaro 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.
