I profiled the Nicaragua Yellow Catuai from El Quetzal Coffee as a dark roast, even though it was recommended for a medium profile, and I am glad I trusted my instincts. The darker roast brings out a bold, rich flavor with excellent body, smooth depth, and the kind of strong, satisfying character I want in a dark coffee.
I loved the finished roast so much that it became the foundation of Front Line Hero, which now headlines my coffee lineup as my number-one seller. This coffee has quickly become a customer favorite and represents everything I wanted Front Line Hero to stand for: bold flavor, strength, consistency, and purpose.
Through iHonorUSA.com, I am also actively sending Front Line Hero to deployed U.S. service members so they can enjoy a small creature comfort from home. As a veteran, being able to share one of my best coffees with the men and women serving overseas makes this roast especially meaningful to me.
