From the roaster

When you like both dark and medium—or can't decide—you'll love Twin Cities. It's a little more intense and a touch more bold and roasty than most mediums. Hint: It's got a wee kick of Sumatra for some rustic, earthy punch.

Peace Coffee

Context

Peace Coffee sources this Sumatran offering as a straightforward expression of the region's classic profile. Sumatra-grown coffees tend toward lower acidity and heavier body, and the roaster's characterization of rustic, earthy tones aligns with what the origin typically delivers. This is coffee built on foundation rather than flourish—a grounded cup suited to those seeking depth over complexity.
