THE BEDOK RESERVOIR DOGS BLEND
Let's get to work. We've put together a crew of beans that are smooth, sharply dressed, and pack a serious punch. Inspired by the slick, fiercely territorial otters ruling the banks of Bedok Reservoir and the unapologetic grit of a classic heist, this blend is tailored for those who like their coffee bold. It's dark, it's velvety, and it gets the morning job done without asking any questions. No weak cups allowed.
THE LINEUP AND RATIOS
50% Brazil Cerrado Finecup: The Muscle, lays down the velvety full body and toasted peanut base.
30% Colombia Huila Supremo: The Professional, brings smooth caramel sweetness to keep things balanced.
20% Guatemala Blue Ayarza: The Wildcard, adds a complex, subtly spiced finish with a little bite.
ROAST LEVEL: MEDIUM-DARK
We take this crew to a Medium-Dark co-roast. This level develops a slight surface oil, slick like wet otter fur, while maximizing the rich malt chocolate of the Brazil beans. The dense Colombian and Guatemalan beans hold up perfectly to the heat, creating a unified, bold profile without turning to ash.
EXPECTED FLAVOR PROFILE
The First Hit: A heavy, unapologetic wave of rich malt chocolate and toasted peanuts.
The Body: Smooth, velvety, and thick.
The Getaway: A clean, lingering caramel sweetness with a sharp, subtly spiced finish. Low acidity, high impact.
BEST BREWING METHODS
Espresso: Pulls a dangerously thick, syrupy crema for a sharp, intense shot.
Moka Pot: Delivers that gritty, classic Italian-style strength.
French Press: Allows the velvety, heavy body to fully take over your cup.
