Central American Origin Dark Roast Coffee
Inspired by Carl Sandburg’s iconic tribute to the city, The Big Shoulders is our heaviest hitter. This isn't just a French Roast; it’s the liquid embodiment of the grit, industry, and unshakeable strength that built the Chicago skyline.
If you’re looking for a delicate, floral tea-like experience, keep moving. But if you want a coffee that can carry the weight of a 5:00 AM start in a Chicago winter, you’ve found it.
The Profile: Dark, Bold, Unapologetic
The Big Shoulders is a meticulous house blend of premium Central American beans, roasted to achieve that signature smoky, French Roast finish. By sourcing from Central American estates, we ensure that even at a dark roast, the coffee maintains a syrupy body and a lingering sweetness.
