The Essence of Mugshot
Mugshot is not just another coffee blend—it's a statement of balance and complexity, a tribute to the art of coffee roasting and brewing.

The creation of Mugshot involved careful selection of high-quality beans, precision in roasting, and meticulous blending.

Whether you prefer your coffee black, with cream, or in an espresso-based drink, Mugshot delivers a consistent, flavorful cup that stands out in any setting.

Crafting the Perfect Roast
The key to Mugshot’s balanced flavor profile lies in the art of roasting. To achieve the perfect medium roast, the beans are carefully roasted to a temperature that allows their natural sweetness to come to the forefront, while maintaining their complex acidity and developing the deep, chocolaty flavors that characterize this blend. The roasting process is meticulously timed to ensure that the beans reach their optimal flavor potential, capturing the delicate nuances that make Mugshot so distinctive.

Our roasters are highly trained professionals who have perfected the art of medium roasting, ensuring that every batch of Mugshot is consistent in flavor, body, and aroma. The beans are roasted in small batches to maintain freshness and ensure quality control. The careful attention to temperature and timing during the roasting process ensures that the final product is a well-rounded coffee that is neither too light nor too dark but strikes the perfect balance for an unforgettable coffee experience.

Flavor Profile: Bright, Smooth, and Chocolaty
Mugshot’s flavor profile is defined by three primary components: brightness, smoothness, and a rich, chocolaty finish. The vibrant acidity of Mugshot gives it an invigorating character that’s perfect for those who enjoy a lively cup of coffee. This acidity is not sharp or overpowering, but instead adds a pleasant liveliness that enhances the overall drinking experience.

The smoothness of Mugshot is another defining characteristic. While many coffees can be acidic or bitter, Mugshot offers a smooth body that is easy on the palate. The sweetness of the beans, derived from their natural sugars, comes through in every sip, balancing the brightness of the acidity and creating a well-rounded coffee that is full of flavor but not harsh.

The final layer of flavor in Mugshot is its deep, chocolaty finish. As you take your last sip, the smooth chocolate notes linger on your palate, offering a satisfying and comforting end to the cup. This finish gives Mugshot a depth that makes it suitable for any time of day, from an energizing morning brew to a late afternoon pick-me-up.

Ideal Brewing Methods
One of the standout features of Mugshot is its versatility. Whether you prefer to brew your coffee with a French press, pour-over, drip machine, or espresso machine, Mugshot adapts beautifully to different methods, delivering a rich and flavorful cup each time.

For drip coffee makers, Mugshot is a perfect choice for those who enjoy a classic, easy-going brew. The medium roast brings out the natural sweetness of the beans while maintaining its balanced flavor profile. For espresso enthusiasts, Mugshot shines in a shot, delivering a bright acidity that cuts through the espresso crema and a chocolatey finish that lingers after the shot is pulled.

The smoothness of Mugshot also makes it ideal for a variety of milk-based drinks. When combined with steamed milk, the fruity acidity complements the creaminess of the milk, creating a balanced latte or cappuccino with subtle fruity undertones and a silky smooth finish.

French press aficionados will also appreciate the depth and body that Mugshot offers. The immersion brewing method extracts the full flavor profile of the beans, resulting in a cup that is bold, rich, and full of character. Whether you’re brewing it as a single cup or in larger batches, Mugshot delivers consistent results with each press.
