Hero’s Signature Blend was created not just as a coffee, but as a commitment. Blind Dog Coffee has proudly partnered with the Veterans Transition Resource Center (VTRC) in Nevada for years, supporting their mission to serve those who’ve served us. The VTRC is a 100% volunteer-run organization that provides vital support to veterans facing hardships—from covering rent and utility bills to helping with groceries and daily essentials.
This partnership is deeply personal to our team. It reflects the belief that coffee can be more than a morning ritual—it can be a force for good. With $1 from every bag donated directly to the VTRC’s emergency fund, this blend helps create real, tangible impact in the lives of veterans in our community.
Hero’s Blend is a tribute to their strength, sacrifice, and service. With every sip, you’re not only enjoying a beautifully smooth and bold cup of coffee—you’re joining a mission rooted in gratitude, respect, and compassion. It’s more than a roast. It’s a way to give back.
