The Story of Our House Blend Coffee We created our Mystic Monk Coffee Blend in 2007. And it’s been one of our most popular coffee sellers ever since. Our coffee-roasting aficionado, whom we’ve aptly named Brother Java, had the mission of creating coffee sample options for the other monks to try when we first launched Mystic Monk Coffee. Roasting on the cast iron pan, he knew he stumbled on magnificence when he sipped what would soon become our first in-house blend. Our house blend consists of Arabica coffee and other beans from across every region of the globe, including Sumatra, which gives the blend its distinctive earthy quality and notes of spice. We’ll never know whether it was a stroke of genius or divine inspiration. But we do know this perfectly balanced blend has become a favorite among our customers' and our monastery's coffee options. Flavor Profile and Characteristics You’ll love the monks’ house blend Arabica coffee if you’re on a mission to find a well-balanced blend with low acidity. Every sip gives you a nice balance of earth, wood, and spice. You’ll also enjoy cedar, vanilla, and brown sugar on the nose — an aroma that’s lovely to wake up to on those chilly mountain mornings. We dark roast the coffee beans, so unlike a medium roast or light roast coffee that features a lighter color, our house blend is a richly dark brew with a fairly robust flavor. Thanks to our unique roasting process, which combines old-world techniques and modern technology, you’ll be able enjoy a balanced cup of coffee that’s never bitter and always smooth at home. How to Enjoy Mystic Monk House Blend Drink it black to savor the complexity of flavors. Because it’s such a well-balanced roast, it’s also excellent for making iced coffee and cold brews. You can also enjoy it hot with honey and milk for a sweet and rich morning coffee. This is a perfect everyday coffee and one that our customers rave about. Some say it’s the best coffee they’ve ever tasted! We have to agree: This blend made by Carmelite monks makes a heavenly cup of coffee. House Blend Ground Coffee We use a universal grind setting to create our ground coffees, so you can make our house blend roast on any brewing equipment. The grinds are extremely uniform and can be used with a French press, pour-over coffee, an automatic drip machine, an Aeropress, or any other equipment. Our coffee stays fresh longer because we use a machine that creates a low-oxygen seal when packaging. You can store our coffee for up to two weeks in an airtight container away from heat and light exposure without losing that fresh coffee taste. House Blend Whole Beans Our monks' house blend whole beans are a deep mahogany color with an oily texture. The oil comes from the coffee beans and is a natural part of the roasting process when creating dark roasts. As with our bags of ground house blend, you can expect your whole-bean coffee to last up to two weeks after opening. Because we seal the beans without oxygen, you’ll also get a burst or aroma when opening the bag. Who Should Drink Mystic Monk’s House
