Bird Rock The Optimist Blend Coffee

The coffee blend is designed to taste complex and balanced, with notes of cinnamon, cola and dark chocolate. Those flavors come through differently depending on your brew method, but the profile stays versatile.

Yes, the coffee blend is intended to work as both drip coffee and espresso. If you like switching between a daily mug and espresso-based drinks, it is a convenient option that still keeps a defined flavor profile.

The coffee blend combines coffees from Central America, South America and Indonesia. That mix of regions helps create a more layered cup than a single-origin coffee.

This coffee blend is a great fit for shoppers who want one dependable option that can handle multiple brew styles. It is especially nice for households where some people brew drip coffee while others pull espresso.

Bird Rock emphasizes sustainability, long-term relationships with farming partners and paying fair prices while working toward shared goals. The roaster was named Micro-Roaster of the Year by Roast Magazine in 2012.
