Nevada Black is more than our best-selling roast, it’s a love letter to the place where it all began.
Inspired by the quiet power of the Nevada mountains, where stars stretch across endless night skies and the desert air carries a rare kind of stillness, this roast captures the essence of the land that shaped us.
Our founder, Mark, and Master Roaster, Ian, were raised in this rugged landscape, growing up on horseback with a deep connection to ranch life.
The rhythm of the land, their bond with animals, and the spirit of the West are all part of the inspiration that brought Nevada Black Italian Roast to life—and that spirit lives in every batch.
Crafted with care and intention, this Italian dark roast is bold yet smooth, with rich notes of cocoa, molasses, and toasted walnut. It’s a cup that feels like home: strong, steady, and deeply comforting.
Nevada Black was created out of love—for coffee, for heritage, and for the wild beauty of the place we call home.
It’s a taste of the West, from our family to yours.
