We curated the components for this coffee to create a blend that captures the essence of winter. Comforting notes of winter spices are balanced with round chocolate notes to produce exceptionally well balanced and flavorful cups. It is great for use as both espresso and drip coffee.

Our Choice for In-House Espresso
The name Redd is a tribute to the salmon of the Russian River that connects both of Black Oak’s cafes as well as Mendocino and Sonoma county. This blend is used for espresso in both of our cafes. The composition of the blend is updated seasonally. This allows us to seamlessly transition between the most freshly harvested green coffee, while capturing the essence of the seasons.

Redd is carefully crafted to have the exceptional balance necessary to produce extraordinary cups of light espresso while maintaining a nuanced flavor that helps enhance the joys that are unique to the changing seasons.

This coffee produces great cups with coffee:water ratios of about 1:15 and lower temperature brew water between 200–205°F
