For any coffee lovers out there, we all know that drinking coffee is something that many people love to do. That’s because this revitalizing beverage not only helps us to wake up in the morning, but also helps to keep us going throughout our working days. Now, when it comes to choosing your coffee blend, just in a similar way to wine or beer, coffee can also have many different inherent flavors. All of those different flavors can vary based on the type of the coffee plant itself, where or when each coffee plant is grown, how the coffee beans from those coffee plants are processed as well as roasted, and even how the resulting coffee from those beans is brewed. With all that said, while many coffee lovers think that they know how delicious coffee can be, in reality, only a select few truly know how flavorsome some brands of coffee are. This brings us to the Fire Department Coffee, a unique coffee brand with a humble reason behind it.
THE STORY BEHIND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT COFFEE BRAND
The Fire Department Coffee is a veteran-owned business that’s dedicated to providing several different great-tasting coffee blends to people everywhere, and this is really good coffee.
This extremely unique coffee brand was actually inspired by the vital role that coffee plays in helping firefighters to stay alert and energized through their typically long shifts, and with that, the Fire Department Coffee brand was born, being founded in 2016.
Founder and CEO Luke Schneider, who’s in fact a full-time firefighter and paramedic as well as a U.S. Navy veteran looked to team up with Jason Patton, who not only is the current VP for the company, but is also another full-time firefighter that also operates in the field as paramedic.
Needless it is to say that the whole Fire Department Coffee brand is obviously run both by active and retired firefighters alike, and that even includes the company’s Operations Officer and Chief Coffee Roaster. Additionally, this unique coffee brand is also certified by the National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA).
On top of that, no matter which coffee blend from Fire Department Coffee’s product line you decide to go with, you’ll be glad to know that every single order starts by being freshly roasted in Rockford, Illinois, for which the whole process is actually done by a dedicated team of firefighters, first responders, and coffee connoisseurs.
Coffee Purchases for an Honorable Cause
Best of all, while the awesome folks at Fire Department Coffee are dedicated to provide all coffee lovers with a very unique and ever-growing selection of incredible coffee blends – which also includes the company’s signature Spirit-Infused Roasts, mind you – Fire Department Coffee also supports all heroes in need through their first responder and firefighter support foundation, called the Fire Department Coffee Foundation.
The Fire Department Coffee Foundation is none other than a 501(c)(3) Charitable Organization that’s dedicated to supporting groups that help firefighters and first responders who are injured on the job, no matter if mentally or physically, as well as those who are facing other serious health challenges.
To be a little more specific, each month, exactly ten percent (10%) of all net proceeds from Fire Department Coffee – as well as other charitable gifts – are directly donated via the company’s Fire Department Coffee Foundation to support one or more worthy organizations or individual heroes in need, for which all of that money is used to help provide essential resources and assistance to any firefighters and first responders that have been injured on the job.
THE DIFFERENT COFFEE BLENDS AVAILABLE
Now, let’s talk a bit about the many different unique coffee blends that are available from Fire Department Coffee.
Most Popular Premium Coffee Roasts
Starting with some of Fire Department Coffee’s most popular high-quality coffee blends that directly resulted from a handpicked combination of extraordinary varietals which were selected from top coffee growers from all around the world, we have their Original Medium Roast Coffee, their Dark Roast and Skull-Crushing Espresso.
Both the Medium and Dark Roasts are sold as ground coffee, while their Skull-Crushing Espresso blend is available in the form of whole bean coffee.
For the Fire Department Coffee’s Original Medium Roast Coffee, this delicious blend of coffee is obviously where it all began for the brand.
Made with a blend of Central and South American coffees, the Original Medium Roast Coffee delivers a bold flavor in every cup. So, whenever you need a burst of energy to get the job done, consider going with the Original blend.
Shellback Espresso – Honorable Mention
And coming as an Honorable Mention, Fire Department Coffee has one other espresso coffee blend available called Shellback Espresso, which was formulated to celebrate and honor America’s Navy and their Naval line-crossing ceremony where sailors become Navy Shellbacks, hence this unique coffee blend’s name.
For making their delicious Shellback Espresso blend, coffee beans are firstly harvested from the equator, including countries like Indonesia, Colombia and Brazil. Whether you’re a Navy sailor, veteran, shellback, or just someone who appreciates good coffee, this bold and rich espresso will keep you caffeinated and energized to take on your day.
And honestly, the same goes for all the other coffee blends from the folks at Fire Department Coffee. Delicious, roasted in a premium way, and always, always revitalizing, just as you’d expect from a true coffee brand.
Spirit-Infused Coffee Roasts
As mentioned earlier, the coffee lovers at Fire Department Coffee have put a lot of work into formulating all of their ever-growing selection of incredible coffee blends, including the company’s signature Spirit-Infused Roasts.
In fact, not so long after the company was originally founded in 2016, Fire Department Coffee actually became the first coffee brand in the industry to combine the taste of high-quality coffee beans with the subtle (and occasionally not-so-subtle) notes of the finest spirits.
Fire Department Coffee’s Spirit-Infused Coffee Club was originally created to give spirit-infused coffee lovers a new treat, which can be delivered to their doorstep each and every month.
And with just some time passing by, what first began with some spirit-infused coffee blends like Bourbon-Infused Coffee, Whiskey-Infused Coffee, Rum-Infused Coffee and Tequila-Infused Coffee has now evolved to an ever-expanding collection of limited-edition Spirit-Infused Coffee Roasts, which already had featured other special blends like Black Cherry Bourbon Infused Coffee, Vanilla Bean Bourbon Infused Coffee, Old Fashioned Infused Coffee and a whole lot more.
These Spirit-Infused Roasts originally start as non-alcoholic coffee blends, for which the alcohol then cooks out during the roasting process, ultimately resulting in a spirit-infusion coffee blend that comes with the perfect balance for an optimal flavor profile.
Donut Shop Coffee
Lastly, for all donut lovers out there, we’d also like to talk about Fire Department Coffee’s recently introduced Donut Shop Coffee, which is a brand-new roast that because of how quickly it became so popular, the company simply couldn’t stop coming up with newer blends.
Obviously, when going to an actual donut shop, one of the sweetest things you can actually do is to choose between all the enticing options behind the counter, and that also includes that shop’s coffee. However, many coffee brands out there only offer you one flavor of donut shop coffee.
But that’s not the case with the folks at Fire Department Coffee. On their Donut Shop Coffee page, you have quite a large variety of different donut shop coffee flavors, so if you fancy this particular type of coffee blend, consider checking those out and pick your favorite one.
PRICING & AVAILABILITY
Prices start at $11.99 and go up to $14.99, with several different types of blends as well as many different flavors to choose from, with some specific flavoring options also available for purchasing in the form of Coffee Pods.
Simply click the following link to have a look at the different coffee collections available for purchasing at Fire Department Coffee’s official shopping page.
Additionally, you can also find several different coffee blends from Fire Department Coffee already available for purchasing on the shelves at Meijer stores across the great state of Illinois, allowing you to pick up your favorite blend while you’re stocking up on groceries and other essentials.
ADDITIONAL MERCH. & APPAREL / GEAR
Finally, we’d also like to mention that our beloved and ever-dedicated firefighters and first responders at Fire Department Coffee also have a ton of merchandise and apparel available at their shopping page, going from very cool coffee mugs all the way to T-Shirts, US-themed stickers, and more.
