Overview

bell’s is named for one of our heroes, bell hooks - an author, feminist, and social activist. Components of bell’s change multiple times throughout the year to embrace the freshest harvests available to our roasting team.  However, the flavor profile goal remains the same - nutty, chocolatey, balanced, and approachable. This blend is designed to be your everyday go-to for lovers of classic coffee flavors.  It shines across every brew method and every milk and sugar addition you could dream of. The current offering is a two-part blend composed of the following:

50% FAF Curupira - We source a handful of coffees through our partners in Brazil, Fazenda Ambiental Fortaleza (FAF), for use in bell's throughout the year. These are generally lower scoring compilations from the same farmers that we purchase top quality microlots. 

  • 50% Estrellas de Cajamarca: a washed processed coffee from a compilation of families throughout Cajamarca, Peru. Sourced via a new importing relationship, Swift Coffee Source.

Context

Bell’s, a signature offering from 1000 Faces Coffee, is crafted to provide a reliable and consistent experience for the daily drinker. By focusing on a profile described as nutty, chocolatey, balanced, and approachable, this coffee serves as a quintessential example of a classic, comfort-forward roast. Such profiles are often sought after for their versatility, performing well across various brewing methods while maintaining a familiar, crowd-pleasing character.

When evaluating coffees with these foundational flavor markers, it can be helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better identify the specific nuances within the chocolate and nut categories. While some specialty coffees lean toward bright acidity or exotic floral notes, balanced blends like Bell’s prioritize a smooth, rounded mouthfeel and a clean finish. This approachability makes it an excellent choice for those who appreciate a steady, dependable cup that highlights the fundamental sweetness inherent in high-quality, well-roasted beans.
