Sometimes you want a big, bold, brash cup of coffee. We have you covered. There are also times when you want a cup of coffee that’s a little more on the mellow side, with strong coffee flavor but without the intensity you get from some brews. Trader Joe’s Organic Breakfast Blend is the coffee for those occasions. You may have noticed a new look for our Organic Breakfast Blend—rather than a canister, it now comes in a valved bag. In addition to being a more efficient form of packaging, the bag also helps protect your coffee, too: when coffee beans are roasted, they emit a small amount of CO2, and can continue to do so even after being sealed in packaging. This valve lets that CO2 escape, without letting any oxygen in, ensuring that your coffee stays fresh and that the bag doesn’t inflate. Ingenious! Other than its new packaging, it’s still the same great coffee, still sourced for us from a series of small coffee cooperatives across Latin America, including Southern Mexico, Guatemala, and the Peruvian Andes. Organic, kosher, and fair trade certified, it’s a beautifully balanced Blend that’s been toasted to a medium roast to create a smooth, mellow, super-drinkable flavor profile. We find that makes it the ideal brew with which to start your day—which is why we call it Breakfast Blend. Try it with your favorite traditional breakfast fare, served black, or, if you’d like an even smoother sip, with a spoonful or two of our Coconut Creamer.
