'Heroes at Heart' truly embodies the dedication, spirit and commitment of our local firefighters and peace officers."

The "Heroes at Heart" Coffee Blend is a dark & distinctive medium roast with roasted nut aroma notes, dried fruit flavor, and a semi-sweet chocolate finish using beans from the Cerrado region of Brazil. The unique Tea Blend features green tea leaves grown in the northern most point of the province of Jeolla-Namdo, South Korea and picked at the end of spring from a family owned garden established in 1951. The special tea leaves are then blended with peppermint leaf, cornflower and other flavors for a sweet summer profile.
