Steam Roller Blend














"A solid blend for all: bittersweet chocolate from the aroma to the finish, complimented by toasted nuts, subtle lemon and creamy cocoa at the end. A
Source Direct blend of coffees from our friends at COOPRONARANJO in Costa Rica."

It's also a tribute to the rich history right on our doorstep. You can read more about the fascinating story behind the Providence Steam Roller here, and more about the stadium they played in, the now non-existent Cycledrome, on one of our favorite websites: Art in Ruins. Look for another new blend in tribute to the Cycledrome soon!

The above logo is actually based on the Providence basketball team of the same name. The NFL team had this weird wolf-man logo, which none of us can explain, and apparently neither can the internet. Do you know why there's a wolf-man?

  1. The void of data regarding the wolf man is killing me. I am going to dig deeper into this mystery.

  2. The "wolf man" is actually a crude artwork representation of the Steam Rollers dog mascot... a Huskie
