Dark cocoa, brown butter and sweet cherry, in different proportions depending on how you brew it. Merit call it their foundational coffee and it earns that: chocolatey, fruity and grounded at once.

The closest thing here to a drop-in replacement for Dogspeed, a shade brighter and cleaner.

How to drink it. Black, to get the cherry. It takes a splash of milk without falling apart, but the fruit goes first. No sugar.
