Verena Street Nine Mile Sunset is a 2 lb whole-bean dark roast coffee crafted for a bold, full-bodied cup with deep roast character yet without harsh burnt or smoky bitterness.
Harvested from high-elevation Arabica farms and blended for balance, this small-batch roast aims to highlight rich aroma, layered flavor, and a smooth finish. Roasted and packaged in Dubuque, Iowa by the family-owned Verena Street team, Nine Mile Sunset combines multiple single-origin beans roasted to their ideal levels so the blend delivers complexity without losing clarity.
What flavor profile can I expect from Nine Mile Sunset?
This dark roast emphasizes a rounded, robust roast character while preserving the beans' intrinsic flavors. You’ll find pronounced cocoa and toasted-nut notes with subtle underlying fruit or caramel sweetness depending on the brew method.
- Full-bodied mouthfeel with steady weight on the palate
- Roast-forward notes like dark chocolate and toasted almond
- Hints of caramel or dried fruit beneath the surface
- Smooth finish that avoids ashy or burnt sensations
How should I grind and brew these whole beans for best results?
Adjust grind size to match your chosen brew: coarse for French press, medium-coarse for pour-over, and fine for espresso. Use freshly ground beans within 10–20 minutes of grinding to retain top aroma and flavor.
- French press: coarse grind, 4–5 minute steep, 1:12 ratio
- Pour-over: medium-coarse, 2–3 minute total contact time, 1:15 ratio
- Espresso: fine grind, 18–30 second extraction, tailored dose
- Use filtered water at 195–205°F for most methods
Is this coffee responsibly sourced and how is it roasted?
Nine Mile Sunset is made from 100% Arabica beans purchased from Rainforest Alliance certified farms, supporting environmental stewardship and farm communities. Each lot is roasted in small batches with a profile tuned to bring harmony between roast strength and the beans’ natural qualities.
- Rainforest Alliance certified origins to encourage sustainable practices
- Small-batch roasting for consistent freshness and controlled development
- Blended from several single-origin lots, each roasted to its optimal point
- Kosher certified by the Orthodox Union for dietary assurance
How long will the coffee stay fresh and how should I store it?
Freshness is greatest in the weeks after roasting; use within 4–8 weeks for peak flavor, though it remains enjoyable beyond that when stored properly. Keep beans in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and moisture to preserve aroma and oils.
- Store in a cool, dark pantry in an opaque, airtight container
- Buy only what you’ll use within a month or split into smaller portions
- Avoid the refrigerator or freezer for frequently used beans
- Grind on demand to maximize aroma and flavor retention
