A coffee blend is a coffee that is made up of coffee beans originating from more than one place; that is to say, from different countries. This can mean a very micro-level division of place such as varying altitudes on the same producing farm, or it can mean different regions of the same country or different small areas within the same producing region.

Waltham coffee blends come in many shapes and forms. The coffee blend we produce here at the roastery can be seen almost like a recipe where we combine different flavors to strike overall balance, while producing complexity of flavor.

From our blends, we create the perfect taste potential for the market preference or specific customer demand and we include all of the components of our blends on our bag labels. For example, the coffee origin, the country of origin is detailed to allow consumers full transparency. The different origins that make up a blend are on the label, to help customers understand what has gone into our specific coffee blend.

We do blending to meet complex flavor preferences or needs but occasionally it is for a customer’s bespoke coffee requirements or to appeal to a market’s expectations of coffee flavor more easily. Each coffee that we meet only has a certain set of intrinsic flavors, so we have those and only those to work with and develop.

Of course, other people in this business may choose to artificially flavor coffee beans, which is often seen in novelty coffee products but at Waltham Coffee, this is something we neither produce nor standby from a quality perspective. We focus on buying into and showcasing great ethics and quality, and the hard work that goes into producing both.

Our aim is to create a blend that embraces many of the characteristics of a traditional coffee blend which embodies principles of specialty coffee working with amazing producers from across the tropics, profiling and roasting their beans to a medium level before carefully blending them to create a characterful cup.

We blend all our coffees after roasting. This is somewhat unusual in commercial operations, due to it being more time-consuming. However, for maximizing the potential of each bean going into a blend, it’s of paramount importance. This allows us to roast to achieve the correct rate of flavor extraction from each coffee going into a blend. This means that when the end user brews the coffee, they get each bean brewing at the correct rate alongside each other, meaning none of the varietals included in a blend end up significantly over-brewed or under-brewed.

At Waltham, creating a coffee blend is a careful procedure and we feel it is the best way to ensure we get the most out of every bean used in a blend.
