About the Coffee: Chimney Hill Special Roast is our Chimney Hill signature coffee. We roast the highest quality single origin, specialty grade berries in micro-batches daily to make this exceptional coffee. 87 Cupping Score. Much like a wine Sommelier, Coffee Q Graders can spot defects, identify origins, measure flavor, and smell elements of coffee like acidity, sweetness, bitterness, and sourness. This knowledge helps them score coffees on the Specialty Coffee Association’s 100-point quality scale. Any coffee above 80 points is considered a specialty coffee. (Starbucks coffees usually rate in the low 80s.) Chimney Hill’s Special Roast Tanzanian berries are rated an outstanding 87!
Freshly roasted. When buying micro-batch, you can be sure that the coffee you’re buying is fresh and roasted recently. Popular brands typically roast their coffee months before it even makes its way into your cup.
Tailored for the berry. By roasting for micro-batches, it is much easier to roast individual berries in a way that will bring out the most flavor and aroma. Not all coffee beans are created equal, so each roast must be done in a form tailored for each variety of coffee beans.
