ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

In Oklahoma, when storm season rolls around every spring, you’ll find a number of people sitting on their front porch to watch the storm clouds roll in. This blend was crafted to fit this vibe, with fresh and exciting coffees roasted to a darker shade. This coffee aims to split the difference between complex fruit-forward acidity and a darker, more developed roast degree. Thunder Cloud lives up to its name, offering a bolder flavor profile with a cacophonous complexity of aromas. Whether brewed on its own or pulled as a shot of espresso, this blend is a perfect opportunity for fans of complex, light roast coffees who are looking to explore what the darker side of specialty coffee has to offer! 

Thunder Cloud has quickly become a fan favorite, with roasty tones of dark, jammy fruits, a bold hint of baking spice, and a smooth, chocolatey finish.

I drink my coffee black and I like a dark roast. Very hard to find a dark roast that is done right. Topeca achieves it with Thunder Cloud and their signature espresso blend. Only reason I do not give 5 stars is due to price point. The 12 oz bag of coffee is expensive. I fit was a pound and around 16 dollars I would make it my main source for my coffee

We're halfway through a two-pound bag of your Thunder Cloud blend. Our family attended one of your Saturday barista classes about 20 years ago, and over the decades, we’ve tried just about every coffee preparation method out there—from espresso makers to the Hario Switch.

Ultimately, brewing with a low-tech, unfiltered percolator fits us best. Controlling the timing allows us to avoid bitterness, and percolation leaves the natural oils intact with no paper filter taste. We have thoroughly enjoyed how Topeca has roasted this Thunder Cloud blend.

Our percolator routine:
Grind to a French press coarseness.
Heat water to a boil and establish a perk before adding the coffee.
Drop in the basket containing the coffee and distributor plate.
Start a 4-minute timer.
Slowly lower the flame to maintain a slow perk within the 1stminute.
Pull from the heat exactly when the timer ends.

Using a percolator this way gives a very specific start and end to the brewing process. It extracts the acidity, sweetness, and caffeine beautifully while strictly limiting the bitterness. Next up, we want to try the Italian Roast Blend!

I ordered this blend thinking it would be a good dark roast. I was disappointed. It has an unpleasant taste and was not in the same tasting range as most dark roasts. It had a strange taste to it. I wanted to order from here in my state, but I won’t order this blend again.

Hi Adam, thanks for your feedback. I'm sorry Thunder Cloud didn't live up to your preferences/expectations. Please feel free to reach out to us at support@topecacoffee.com letting us know what you usually drink and we'd be happy to give you some recommendations.

I love this coffee. I had it in the coffee shop my last day in Tulsa and wish I would have found it sooner. So when I got home I ordered it and it’s good at home to. I shared with my parents and grandparents and they all love it to! No matter how you brew it strong or weak it won’t disappoint

We are roasting coffee daily, Monday-Friday. We aim to fulfill online orders with coffees between 1-7 days off roast, so that when it is delivered to you it's had time to degas and is ready for brewing.

Coffee is best brewed after it has had time to degas (at least 5-7 days off roast). Coffee's aroma will be at its peak intensity and freshness within the first month after roasting. So, if you are planning on signing up for a subscription, it's best to order for a month's supply at a maximum if you are looking to get the absolute best out of your beans.

No, these are natural flavors found in the coffee. Coffee is the seed of Coffee Fruit. Like any other fruit in the world there are 1000s of botanical varieties. Different varieties will have different flavor characteristics, a lot like wine.

Other things that impact a coffee’s flavor include where the coffee is grown, how the fruit is processed, how the seed is dried, how well the coffee is sorted, how the coffee is roasted, and lastly how you brew it.
