When coffee is processed, the layers of skin, fruit, and parchment are broken down and removed, leaving behind the seeds we roast and brew. Those discarded layers once provided life and protection to the seeds, but don’t have to all go to waste. The skin of the coffee cherry is dried and called Cascara.
This dried fruit skin can be brewed with hot water to make a tea-like beverage that carries the flavor of the dried coffee cherry into the cup.
We are an on-demand small batch roaster of high quality specialty coffees sourced from around the world, striving for that perfect cup.
What is the difference between Knucklehead Coffee and store bought or the coffee offered in your local coffee shop? Not only do we owe it to our patented roast, but also for the fact that our coffee is not sitting on a shelf waiting for you to buy it; it's roasted to order.
That means no more unexpected sour coffee, no more tummy aches; while coffee can be "drinkable" for up to a year, experts generally agree that coffee flavor peaks at 14 days - and with an order from Knucklehead you can rest assured that all of your coffee will be in that freshness sweet spot.
