Tasting Notes: Cocoa Nibs - Lingering Body |
Most people’s initial encounter with a dark roast is a cup full of smoke and ash, but we think coffee should be more than that. We strive to maintain distinctive origin flavors while softening the acidity and highlighting distinctive molasses and spice characteristics. This coffee is a shining example of our craft, providing enough roast development to please those who look for deep character, but applied with a delicate hand to still deliver a true coffee experience.
The West Pole, unlike the North and South Poles, has no geographic significance whatsoever. It was declared to be so as more of a gag than anything else, and we kind've love that. It's definitely not something you would expect to find in Bee Cave, Texas (just east of our roastery) so we named our dark roast blend after it...just because.*
*In a constant effort to keep our blends as fresh as possible, the varietals can vary with coffee's changing seasonality. Contact the Roastery directly to learn more details about the coffees used in this blend

Dark roast means different things to different people. To us, it means that we have achieved a wonderful balance between origin flavors and roast character.

Since i moved from Austin, TX, i have comtinued to order rhe Cuvèe Coffee West Pole beans. Its the only low-acid, full-bodied, dark roast coffee that i can find. I want strong but have to be careful about heartburn. I love this coffee!
I'm a relatively new coffee drinker at 73 (my Dad must be laughing now, he drank at least two quarts of coffee every day working on the Railroad). As a weight loss regimen to fight diabetes, eating just two high protein & fat meals no more than 6 hours apart (it works, off insulin,one hundred pounds lighter) I needed something in the morning....Hot, Black, Dark Roast Coffee turned out to be the answer...along with a nice morning cigar. My Coffe rig is a Fellows electric grinder and the new Aeropress Premium Glass and Metal brewing set. My early favorites were from Black & White and Graffeo Roasters. Cuvee is a new competitor to me (although Austin is only a modest drive from my Dallas home). I had to fiddle with the brewing, dropping the water temperature down to 94C from 99C. Going to a finer grind than I was accustomed to (Aeropress is 3-fine to 6-medium). I ended up with a setting of 3.25 fine/medium. Delicious coffee.....I brew two loads, 18 ounces and sit on the shaded back porch at 7 am and enjoy really great coffee, a good cigar, and a pleasant breeze (short lived in summer, but 77 degrees beats the rest of the day). WH
Cuvée is so consistent in quality no matter which blend I purchase. Smooth and flavorful. Great crema.
It's the best!
West Pole is earthy and while it’s a dark roast, it has just the right amount of balance (bitterness). It also tastes great as an iced coffee.
