Frighteous

What was that?.... The faint sounds of a coffee grinder from down the hall. Was  it… a g-g-g-ghost!?

Like zoiks! It was only a familiar Gimme! Coffee blend this whole time. Every now and then one of our blends likes to dress up for Halloween. This year our old friend Righteous decided to transform into its spooky alter ego known only as Frighteous. But don't be scared, underneath its costume it's the same friendly fruit forward blend you know and love. It's all treats and no tricks and what all the witches are really brewing. So get your cauldron going and conjure notes of gummy worms, blood orange, and peeled grapes. The fruit notes will really jump out at you. It's scary good but grab a bag while you can - once Halloween is over it will transform back to its original form.

The Frighteous lot, roasted by Gimme! Coffee, presents a vibrant and playful profile that challenges traditional expectations of coffee flavor. By highlighting distinct notes of gummy worms, blood orange, and peeled grapes, this selection leans into the bright, candy-like acidity often sought by those exploring the more experimental side of the flavor wheel.

While coffee flavor is inherently subjective, coffees that exhibit such pronounced fruit-forward characteristics often benefit from precise roasting techniques that preserve delicate volatile compounds. This specific offering invites drinkers to look beyond standard chocolate or nutty descriptors, encouraging a sensory experience that bridges the gap between familiar fruit profiles and confectionery sweetness. Whether enjoyed as a pour-over or a bright espresso, Frighteous serves as a compelling example of how modern processing and roasting can highlight unconventional, high-intensity flavor notes in the cup.
