  New At Oregon Coffee Roaster
Blooming Teas are the hot new item on the market.  Each "bloom" is a hand tied creation of green tea and flowers.  Place the bloom in hot water and watch it unfold into a beautiful display.  Each bloom can be infused several times and makes a delicious, healthy cup of tea.

Blueberry Coffee is exploding in popularity.  To meet the demand, OCR now offers the following flavored coffees: Blueberry Cream, Blueberry Cobbler and Blueberry Crumble.  Each coffee is a delicious combination featuring the field-ripe flavor of fresh blueberries.

Torani Syrups has a winner in their two new flavors: Peanut Butter and Brown Sugar Cinnamon.  Peanut Butter in a mocha is a classic pairing.  Give your Mexican Mochas a special twist with Brown Sugar Cinnamon in place of a plain cinnamon flavoring.  Both are available in regular and sugar-free.

After repeated requests, Torani has also come out with a spicy, rich Mayan Chocolate Sauce and the decadent taste of Pumpkin Pie Sauce.  Both add a richness to a mocha or latte.

Coffee Roasting Glossary

Cinnamon Roast Coffee beans roasted to a light brown color, developing a nutty flavor with the highest acidity. The oil remains in the bean when fresh but seeps out as the beans age.

American Roast Coffee beans roasted to a darker brown than Cinnamon Roast but still a light roast profile with a carmelish flavor.
City Roast Coffee beans roasted to a medium dark roast, slightly darker than American Roast.

Full City Roast A roast that is slightly heavier than a City Roast. The beans are roasted to their full flavor development with no traces of oil on the bean surface when freshly roasted.

Vienna Roast Coffee beans roasted to dark brown color with a small amount of oils on the bean surface. Coffee roasted to a Vienna Roast has noticeable smoky undertones.

Italian Roast Coffee beans roasted at high enough temperatures to bring the natural oil of the coffee to the surface. The smoky overtones are predominant.

French Roast Coffee beans roasted darker than Italian Roast (West Coast). On the East Coast and in Europe, French and Italian roast terminology are the opposite of the West Coast terms. French Roast is sometimes known as "New Orleans Roast" and is characterized by a large amount of oil on the bean surface, heavy smoky overtones and a pronounced bittersweet flavor.
