3 Blends of Coffee We Use and Why

Time to spill the beans on our beans!

Here at Simply we get asked a lot “What kind of coffee do you use?”

We love this question!

It might surprise you to know that we use a few different blends from a few different places. We are very passionate about coffee and getting the right “taste” for the right “job”.

We use 3 companies.

Tinker: Located in Indianapolis, Tinker Coffee is our staple brand. We use their “Zing” blend for our espresso and French presses. This bold flavor is more on the acidic side but is still a medium roast. This roast is part of their ARC series and was awarded the Bronze medal TWICE in 2019 in Nashville at the Golden Bean Competition in 2019.

Sola Coffee: Sola is new company founded in Madisonville, KY. They’re right down the road from us. They make amazing coffee and do tastings at their roastery too. They made a special house blend for us with flavors of caramel and chocolate. We use this blend as our house roast and have it brewing all day. This blend is for sale in our lobby as well as online. Sola also provides our decaf blend! This decaf is a great alternative espresso for those of us whose hearts need a little break from all that caffeine. This decaf is also available in shop.

Blonde Roast: We use Sola Coffee for our blonde roast as well. This blend is called “White City" and has a meaningful story behind it located on Sola’s website.

Dillanos Coffee: We use Dillanos Paradox blend for all of our cold brew needs! We brew it fresh in the back of the house in our Toddy. This blend has the perfect bold taste meant for a cold brew you’re sure to fall in love with. This blend is rich, heavy, and bold with tastes of cola and vanilla. Its origin is Central America.
