Almond. Cherry. The part of dessert you actually wanted.
Amaretto has always been the most charming thing in the liqueur cabinet — nutty, a little sweet, with that cherry-almond thing going on that's hard to place but easy to like. This is that, in coffee form. A medium roast Brazilian base with natural and artificial amaretto flavoring applied after roasting, which means the flavor is actually there rather than something you have to imagine if you squint.
No sugar, no sweeteners, no actual amaretto. Just the character of it — smooth, warm, and genuinely good black. Available in regular and decaf, so the time of day is not a factor.

The Beans
Amaretto is built on a Brazilian Arabica medium roast — the same base that runs through most of the Java Momma flavored lineup because it works. Brazilian beans are naturally lower in acidity, which means the cup stays smooth and the flavoring doesn't have to fight through a sharp or bitter base to come through. Medium roast keeps the body balanced — enough to hold the amaretto character without overwhelming it.
The amaretto flavor — almond, cherry, that warm nutty sweetness — comes from natural and artificial flavoring applied after roasting. Air-roasted to order with 100% solar power. The even heat of air roasting means the bean doesn't get scorched on contact, which keeps the cup clean and lets the flavoring read as intended.

How to Brew
Auto Drip: 2 tablespoons per 8 oz of water. Medium grind. Standard ratio — this one brews consistently without fuss.
Pour Over: Same ratio as drip. Steady, even pour for clean extraction. The amaretto character comes through well with pour over.
French Press: 1 tablespoon per 4 oz of water, coarse grind. Steep 4 minutes, press slow. Full immersion brings out the nuttiness in the flavoring.
K-Cups: Compatible with Keurig 1.0 and 2.0 machines. 12-count box. Same coffee, no measuring required.
Storage: Resealable bag — keep it sealed, store in a cool dry place away from direct light. Airtight container helps after the first open. Best within 4 weeks of opening.
FAQ
Does it taste sweet without adding sugar?
Yes — the natural and artificial flavoring gives it an almond and cherry character that reads as sweet without any added sugar or sweetener. It's the amaretto impression without the actual amaretto — or the calories. Brew strength and what you add will shift how pronounced that is, but black out of the pot is genuinely good.
Is this coffee easy on the stomach?
It tends to be, and there are a few reasons for that. We air-roast all of our coffee — unlike drum roasting, air roasting circulates heat evenly around the bean rather than scorching it against a hot surface, which generally produces a smoother, gentler cup. We also use a Brazilian bean base, and Brazilian beans are naturally lower in acidity thanks to the growing altitude and processing methods used there. Add a medium roast to the mix — longer roast time means less of the compounds that can irritate a sensitive stomach — and you've got a cup that tends to sit a lot easier than most. No guarantees, because everyone's different, but if coffee and your stomach have had a complicated relationship, this is a reasonable place to start.
Does this coffee contain nuts?
No actual nuts — the almond character comes from flavoring, not from nut ingredients. If you have a nut allergy, check with your doctor before consuming any flavored coffee product.
Do you offer a decaf version?
Yes — Amaretto is available in decaf. Same flavor, same air-roasted process, without the caffeine. Our decaf uses the Mountain Water Process, which skips the harsh chemical solvents. Same great cup, any time of day.
What's the difference between the bag and the K-Cups?
Same coffee, different format. The bag gives you flexibility on grind and brew method. The K-Cups are 12-count boxes compatible with Keurig 1.0 and 2.0 machines — grab-and-go with no measuring required.
Is this coffee keto-friendly?
Yes — black coffee has zero sugar, zero sweeteners, and no added carbohydrates. The flavoring in this coffee adds no sugar either. Naturally keto-friendly as a factual spec, not a lifestyle claim.
