Story

Triangle Accent

Our darkest blend features a dark chocolate aroma with a heavy body and smooth acidity.

Ad Astra is a very heavy, dark-roasted blend of high density coffees from Africa and Indonesia. Dark chocolate is prominent throughout, marked by a cola-like sweetness and lingering tone of caramelized sugar.

We were inspired to create this dark-roasted coffee bean blend after watching the symbol of Ad Astra rise and be placed on top of the Kansas State Capitol Building. We only offer one really dark-roasted coffee and we wanted to do it right. Bittersweet chocolate, smoke, and utterly powerful in the cup. Excellent with milk or an Irish Whiskey.

    A versatile dark roast that plays well black or with cream & sugar. Notes are distinct, well-balanced, and strong. One of the best coffees on the market. Never a disappointing cup.

    I love the depth of flavor in this dark roast along with perfect body. It was well balanced, not too sweet or too bitter. I highly recommend this coffee.
