🔥 Roast
A medium roast, using their smooth Breakfast Blend as the base—light enough to let the minty flavor shine without masking the coffee’s own character.
👅 Tasting Profile
Minty and sweet, highlighted by a refreshing peppermint note and a subtle hint of vanilla—evoking the nostalgic taste of Christmas candy canes over a warm coffee base.
🌱 Grower
The coffee originates from specialty-grade South American smallholder farms, the same growers responsible for their Breakfast Blend—typically in Brazil, Colombia, or Peru.
🌿 Variety
Likely includes classic Arabica varietals such as Caturra, Bourbon, Typica, and Catuai, known for their balanced sweetness and smooth finish, ideal for flavored roasts.
🌍 Region
Primarily sourced from South America (e.g., Brazil, Colombia, Peru), aligning with their house blend origins, which lends a well-rounded, approachable foundation.
🏔 Altitude
Grown at mid-altitudes (~1,000–1,500 m) typical of Andean and Brazilian highland farms—producing dense beans that retain flavor well even when infused.
🧱 Soil Type
Cultivated in mineral-rich volcanic loamy soils, common to these highland regions, imparting natural sweetness, depth, and body to the beans.
🛁 Process
The beans undergo fully washed and sun-dried processing at origin, followed by a medium roast. While warm, they’re coated with natural peppermint and vanilla flavoring oils, ensuring a fresh, minty aroma in every cup.
☕Brewing Tip
Drip brewing recommended. Let it cool slightly before sipping to allow the peppermint to mellow.
✅ Final Thoughts
Temecula’s Candy Cane coffee captures the essence of holiday nostalgia—“minty sweet with a hint of vanilla,” finished with a cozy balance atop a smooth South American medium roast. Crafted for festive mornings or spirited gatherings, it delivers a refreshing and heartwarming coffee experience.
