Sometimes you just want coffee that’s more than “just coffee.” Weird Brothers Coffee has a few blends that really hit differently – not because of hype, but because they’re made with some personality. I checked out a few of their unique ones that feel interesting enough to share – here’s what makes them worth a sip.
1. Stranger Beans
This one’s got a fun twist – it’s a mix of light and dark roasts blended together. That combo gives it both brightness and a mellow base, so it swings between chocolate and citrus without going extreme either way. It feels kind of adventurous but still familiar.
- Feel: Smooth, medium body, with a clean finish.
- Flavor: Hints of cocoa, roasted nuts, and light fruit.
- Unique Touch: The dual-roast approach keeps every sip balanced yet slightly unpredictable.
👍 What’s Good
- Balanced for multiple brew styles – pour-over, drip, or French press
- Good balance of light acidity and depth
👎 Could Be Better
- Needs precise grind for best clarity
- Not ideal if you prefer a single roast profile
Tip: Try a medium grind and slightly cooler water (around 92°C) – it keeps both roast tones alive.
2. Princess of Destiny Coffee with Cacao Nibs
Imagine coffee meeting dark chocolate – that’s what this blend feels like. The cacao nibs aren’t sweet; they just add a deep, roasty texture that feels rich and cozy. It’s not a dessert coffee — more like something that makes your morning brew taste fuller and smoother.
- Feel: Creamy and smooth, slightly heavier mouthfeel.
- Flavor: Earthy cocoa with nutty depth, low acidity.
- Unique Touch: The cacao nib infusion gives natural chocolate notes instead of syrupy sweetness.
👍 What’s Good
- Tastes like real cocoa, not artificial flavor
- Perfect with a dash of milk or oat milk
👎 Could Be Better
- Too dark if you prefer bright, fruity coffees
- Can feel heavy for all-day sipping
Tip: Go for a slightly finer grind and a quick brew to highlight the cacao flavor – it keeps things smooth.
3. Blockade Runner – Whiskey Barrel Aged Blend
This one’s a little dramatic – beans aged in whiskey barrels before roasting. No alcohol here, but the barrel aging gives a smoky, woody aroma that’s warm and rich. It’s the kind of coffee that makes you slow down for a bit.
- Feel: Full-bodied with smooth, deep tones.
- Flavor: Notes of oak, caramel, and dark spice.
- Unique Touch: The whiskey barrel process adds character without overpowering the roast.
👍 What’s Good
- Distinct, layered flavor – not your everyday brew
- Ideal for gifting or slow weekend mornings
👎 Could Be Better
- Too bold for light roast fans
- A little pricier due to the aging process
Tip: Skip the milk – black or French press brings out the oak notes best.
Wrapping It Up
Each of these blends has its own vibe – Stranger Beans is lively and balanced, Princess of Destiny brings dark cocoa comfort, and Blockade Runner hits with barrel-aged depth. None of them feel generic – and that’s the best part. Check them out through the links if you’re in the mood for something that actually tastes like personality in a cup. ☕
