Great Heights

Great Heights is a bold and robust coffee, inspired by the Heights in every borough and the dreamer spirit in every New Yorker. As one of our most developed roasts, Great Heights features a rich body with deeply satisfying chocolate and nutty notes.

Although we originally created Great Heights as a cold brew to serve in our cafes, it is equally delicious when brewed hot, and is sure to please any dark roast drinker. To brew this as cold brew at home, check out our article How to Brew Cold Brew Coffee: Recipe & Tips.

When evaluating the nuances of a cup like this, it can be helpful to reference a flavor wheel to better identify the specific characteristics of these chocolate and nutty undertones. Whether enjoyed as a morning staple or a mid-day pick-me-up, this coffee exemplifies the foundational qualities that make South American beans a cornerstone of the specialty coffee industry. By focusing on these core flavor pillars, the roaster provides a consistent experience that emphasizes clarity and depth in every brew.
