This medium roast is rich, balanced and incredibly smooth. The name Bottle Neck pays tribute to the heroic rescue of a baby racoon searching for food in a mason jar behind the Detour Cafe. It got stuck, broke the jar but was left with a sharp glass collar. Kaelin, founder of Detour, trapped and freed our furry friend and settled his nerves with a perfect brew afterwards.

More Info
Bottleneck is all about celebrating seasonality in coffee to maintain a consistent flavour profile year-round. Balancing different seasonal coffee components is about selecting coffees from different farms or co-ops combined to complement and enhance each other. We always try to land on the blend version that will be interesting and complex but also approachable and familiar enough to be shared with anyone. Fun fact about Bottleneck: The name was inspired by the heroic rescue of a baby raccoon behind our Dundas cafe (reach out if you want the full story).
