Dead Poets Society Blend

"Why do I stand up here? Anybody? I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way."

The line comes from a film that shaped how a generation thought about attention, time, and why any of it matters. This coffee is our argument in that tradition. A medium roast built on Brasil Pau (pulped natural) and Peru Delgado La Huaca, roasted to City+ to keep the layered character of the two origins. Milk chocolate and toasted hazelnut sit at the front. Raisin sweetness and soft floral notes emerge underneath. A quiet marshmallow-caramel finish that rewards a second sip.

Bold but patient. A coffee that does its work if you let it.

This is the flagship Ovenbird blend, known to regulars as DPS. Over a decade it has stayed close to its original character while the roast profile and the components behind it have quietly sharpened. The label is Edward Mason Eggleston's Reaching for the Moon (c. 1933), a painting about stretching toward something just beyond grasp. A fitting image for a coffee named after a film about the same idea.
