A coffee blend is a roast made up of more than one single-origin bean (aka a bean from one geographical location). Blends are created by a process called 'blending' that involves mixing different coffee beans to balance out varying acidities, taste notes and aromas - creating new, dynamic flavours. For example, you may love the sweet and smooth flavours of a roast from Costa Rica but feel like it's missing the intensity and kick of your favourite Indonesian coffee. By blending these beans from different origins, you can create an exciting new brew that will give you the best qualities of the two coffees.
