Coffee Pairings: What to Enjoy with Our Premium Brews
3rd Jul 2025

1. Classic Breakfast Favorites
A typical morning meal deserves a classic pairing. Our bold, full-bodied coffee goes perfectly with scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, or a buttery croissant. The richness of our premium roast complements savory flavors beautifully, making your breakfast not just a meal but a true indulgent experience. Pairing the right brew with your breakfast can help kick-start your day with a boost of energy and satisfaction.
2. Sweet Treats
If you have a sweet tooth, you'll love pairing our medium-roast blends with dessert. A slice of chocolate cake or a buttery pastry will enhance the chocolate and caramel notes in our coffee. The sweetness balances the slight bitterness of the coffee, creating a delightful harmony in every sip and bite. Consider brewing a cup of our specialty coffee alongside a pecan pie—it's a pairing that feels like a warm hug from Memphis.
3. Spicy and Savory Dishes
For lunch or dinner, consider pairing your favorite gourmet coffee with spicy foods. The inherent acidity of our lighter roasted blends complements and cuts through the heat of dishes like spicy fried chicken or gumbo, nodding to the culinary influences of Memphis. The contrasting flavors will surprise your palate and potentially lead to a new favorite meal combination!
4. Cheese and Charcuterie
Coffee isn’t just for breakfast and dessert! For an afternoon snack, enjoy a cheese and charcuterie board alongside a pot of our finest brew. Rich, creamy cheeses like Brie or aged cheddar work beautifully against our dark roasts, while a sharp blue cheese invites a lovely contrast. Add some figs or honey for touch, and you have a sophisticated yet delightful tasting experience.
5. Flavorful Cocktails
Surprisingly, our premium coffees also make a great base for cocktails, especially as cold brews! Try mixing our exotic coffee with whiskey for a unique take on an old-fashioned, or add a splash of coffee liqueur for a richer flavor profile that still honors the coffee. Pair it with light appetizers like bruschetta or shrimp cocktail, and you'll impress your guests with a sophisticated flavor experience that channels the spirit of Memphis.
6. Fruit and Nuts
For the health-conscious, fruits and nuts pair beautifully with our brews. The natural sweetness of fresh berries or ripe bananas can enhance the fruity notes in our lighter coffees, while a handful of mixed nuts can complement the earthy flavors in darker roasts. This simple yet delicious pairing is perfect for your mid-morning or afternoon pick-me-up.
