Blending coffees is like the art of cooking — blending and cooking the right combination of ingredients to produce a delectable dish.

Blending is the art of combining two or more coffees to create a balanced cup. There is some debate about when is best to blend beans in the coffee production process, but it can actually be done either before or after roasting, depending on how the master roaster chooses to use the characteristics of the individual coffees to create the desired final cup.

The master roaster, who is knowledgeable about each type of bean, knows what flavors are compatible with one another. For example, the roaster may take a highly acidic coffee bean and combine it with one that is mellow, heavy bodied and nutty to create a balanced cup.

At Millstone®, we have mastered the art of creating blends that capture the essence of our valuable consumers. From our House Blend to our Bed & Breakfast Blend®, our blends are specially crafted for your taste preferences.

Once our coffees are roasted, blended and packed, they are rushed directly to retailers to guarantee the highest quality coffee. To protect the quality, we seal the beans in airtight containers, locking in freshness and flavor by protecting them from oxygen, light, and moisture. Our Millstone® Coffee is available in stores either in bulk whole bean bins or in prepackaged whole bean or ground form.
