Hunter Bay Coffee

Light Roast: Named for our home state, “Montana” is also the Spanish word for “mountain.” Most premium Arabica coffees are grown in mountainous regions at elevations ranging from 2000 to 4000 feet, resulting in small, hard coffee beans with intense, concentrated flavor. Common wisdom says that slow-roasting the coffee at a similar elevation enhances the quality of the coffee by increasing the moisture content retained in the beans during roasting. Using traditional techniques, our Master Roasters roast Hunter Bay coffee at an elevation of 3200 feet, making Montana the perfect spot to create high quality, gourmet coffees like Montana Premium.

Our Euro-classic Full City roast is a rich, and flavorful coffee with spicy overtones and an exceptionally smooth finish. Montana Premium is a combination of premium Central American beans blended to accentuate the intense spicy highlights of a “Strictly Hard Bean” (SHB) coffee from Guatemala and the full, nutty flavor of a quality Costa Rican “High Grown” (HG) coffee.

Roasting Notes:
We roast Montana Premium to a mid-point Full City Roast to accentuate the natural spice and citrusy highlights of the Central American coffees in the blend, creating a lively coffee of medium body.
