Medium Dark Roast Coffee | Veteran-Owned Coffee

Medium-dark is where most daily drinkers actually land. Strong enough to mean something, clean enough to drink without wincing. It's also the hardest roast level to get right with commodity beans.

Every medium-dark roast here is 100% specialty grade. General Quarters is our best-selling drip blend for a reason: structured, clean finish, strong without bitterness. Poseidon's Wrath brings Sumatra's full body and low acidity for French press drinkers who want something that actually hits.

 Not sure where to start? The Crew Sampler puts three of our best roasts in one order.

Best for: drip, French press, espresso-style brews

Try: Signature Peru, Bilgewater Bali, or our African Red Alert! Blend
