The Damn Good Blend was born in 2018 as an upgraded version of the Normcore Milk Blend, with the aim of creating a milk coffee that leaves a lasting impression of exceptional taste. After extensive research, including testing various beans, roasting profiles, and extraction methods over several months, we solicited feedback from both retail customers and wholesale clients to refine the blend. As a result, the Damn Good Blend features a bold, chocolaty, sweet, and rounded flavour that cuts through milk with ease.

To achieve this exceptional taste and impression, we chose to roast the Damn Good Blend with a dark profile, which not only enhances the heavy body and dark chocolate notes but also expands the volume by approximately 20%, leading to increased extraction yield. This ensures that our customers can extract the best possible quality coffee and enjoy the perfect cup every time.

A. We do our production roasting on every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (except public holidays), and roasted coffees are stored in the warehouse for a few days for the dispatch of orders. 

B. All the coffees are sent from the stock(warehouse) unless it requires a specific roasting date. Thus, the coffees you will receive will be between 2 and 7 days after the roasting. 

C. If a specific roasting date is requested, it might take a little longer (1-2 days) to get delivered.

D. All orders are dispatched within 48hours (except public holidays).

About This Coffee

The Damn Good Blend was launched in 2018. it's sold in hundreds of cups daily at Normcore stores and is the top-selling product in retail and wholesale.

In 2018, As a three-year-old Normcore, we wanted to create a blend with Normcore Style that everyone would love. We began by analysing coffee products from major Australian companies, renowned local cafes, and coffees from the United States, Europe, and Asia. We collected feedback from our customers and gathered insights from baristas. The flavour we ultimately arrived at was a coffee-flavoured coffee(it sounds funny, though), a taste that anyone could recognise as coffee. It was a coffee that could cut through when mixed with milk, surpassing the taste of the milk itself.

At a time when light-roasted coffee was trending, we decided to roast our blend much darker. We went as far as developing the roast until the second crack, which was hard to imagine in the specialty coffee scene. In a market dominated by Arabica coffees, we chose Indian robusta, which could give our blend a strong kick. Our extraction method also differed significantly from conventional methods. Instead of the 1:2 or 1:3 ratio used for espresso extraction, we created a 1:1 ratio extraction method.

When the prototype was ready, a customer exclaimed, "Wow, it's damn fine coffee," referencing a line from Twin Peaks. That's how we decided to call this coffee the damn good blend. And the results were successful. The Damn Good Blend became the best-selling blend at Normcore.

Coffee is an agricultural product. This year's coffee will not be the same as next year's. There are also various environmental factors involved in roasting and extraction. That's why our efforts are endless. And this became our mission for damn good coffee. We will continue to manage every process to ensure damn good quality.
