Homebound is a crowd favourite blend of ours and it's our first mixed-process blend. Made up of two components, Homebound has a Natural Brazilian coffee and Washed Colombian.
Renamed to symbolise the comforting taste of home, this unique blend is our "nutty, chocolatey" coffee but to be more specific, our Roast team's tasting expeditions came back with notes of prune from a balanced sweetness and acidity followed by a caramel cashew type of nutty. This coffee has a rich texture and creamy mouthfeel as malty chocolate notes linger in the finish. If you're a fan of less acidic coffees, Homebound might just be your cup of tea! We mean... coffee!
