Learn to pair coffees with perfect food companions, flavor profiles, textures, and body. Explore 4 unique pairings in this 45 min experience

4 coffees, 4 perfect food pairings.

We believe coffee, much like wine, has a rich complexity that can be appreciated beyond its basic function as a morning beverage. Just like wine, coffee has distinct flavor notes—such as fruity, nutty, floral, or chocolaty—that can complement a wide range of foods and beverages.

Our approach is to guide you in experiencing coffee as a flavorful, multi-dimensional ingredient, not just as a drink. By carefully pairing different coffee varieties with food, we elevate both the coffee and the meal, creating a more harmonious and enjoyable experience.

We've selected four single origins for this first pairing experience at Convoy Road Coffee Roasters:

  1. A coffee from Sumatra → Dark chocolate blackberry truffles (rich, creamy)
  2. A coffee from Kenya → Orange shortbread (crisp, bright)
  3. A coffee from Costa Rica → Brown butter honey madeleines (tender, aromatic)
  4. A coffee from Nicaragua → Apricot-almond biscotti (crunchy, nutty)

All of these origins are specialty coffees, with two having sup scores over 85 (about 1-3% of the global harvest each year)
