About this Coffee
For Forty-Six, we celebrate dark roasts by selecting some of our best certified organic coffees and roasting them to create a profile that is sweet, clean, smoky, and nuanced. This coffee was originally recipe #46; hence the name.
Process: Washed & Natural Sundried
Years ago, we had an offering list 100+ blends long. When tasting with wholesale partners and chefs looking for a signature blend for their establishments, blend number 46 consistently emerged as a favorite. 46 wasn’t just any old dark roasted coffee: the components in the recipe were carefully chosen to maximize sweetness and maintain complexity through dark roasting.
When we simplified our menu of offerings, Forty-Six became our staple dark roast. Like other blends on our menu, the components of Forty-Six are from the same certified organic partners that produce Single Origin coffees, bringing our sourcing and product creation together in an intentional way.
We believe in paying more.
Since 2009, we have published an annual transparency report to serve as a blueprint for our green coffee purchasing practices and a response to chronically low prices in the coffee industry. We believe paying more for green coffee is an important investment in the long-term viability of our coffee-growing partners’ businesses and our supply.
