Verve Coffee Roasters has recently launched its latest Wilder Blend, inspired by California’s Wilder Ranch State Park. The Santa Cruz-based specialty coffee roaster celebrates nature’s beauty with its fan-favorite seasonal blend, Wilder. The Wilder Blend highlights three different regions: Guatemala, Rwanda, and Peru. With notes of pluot, cherry leaf, and dandelion, the coffee results in a jammy upfront, rounding out into a delicate balance with a finishing floral touch. Each sip captures the spirit of the land to your cup, echoing serene trails and coastal breezes.

Wilder is now available in both the company’s cafe locations in California and via online purchase for home brewing. The blend can also be brewed in various ways, including Verve’s Dwell Dripper – crafted from BPA-free silicone and features a unique bottomless design, allowing for a free-flowing brew process that creates an aromatic and beautiful brew. Effortlessly clean and endlessly enjoyable, this new blend can be purchased in whole bean form, finely ground form for espresso, medium for filter brewing, and coarse for French press brewing.

According to Verve Coffee Roasters, all of the brand’s coffee roasts can be brewed in multiple ways, designed for your perfect morning. You can also try the Wilder Blend in Instant Coffee form to enjoy your coffee on the go. Individual packets are ideal for travel and require only 10 ounces of hot or cold liquid  (water, milk, or milk alternative) to make. Simply stir and drink up (perhaps while hiking in the Wilder Ranch State Park). This limited-time seasonal roast is available now for purchase.

Buzzard’s Roost opened its Whiskey Row Experience in downtown Louisville, Kentucky, in 2023. Since then, the award-winning brand has become well-known for its high-quality, noteworthy whiskey releases, such as its Barrel Strength Bourbon, Char #1 Bourbon, Toasted American Oak Bourbon, and more.

Buzzard’s Roost Signature Double Oak Bourbon

This new expression from Buzzard’s Roost begins with a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley. It’s first matured in new American white oak barrels before finishing in proprietary casks that were lightly charred and toasted. But this isn’t the first double oaked whiskey from the brand.
