Warm cinnamon. Brown sugar. Butter. The part of the bakery that gets you every time.
Sticky Bun is a medium roast that tastes like the best reason to walk past a bakery — cinnamon and brown sugar up front, a warm buttery finish, and just enough of a nutty character to round it out. The kind of flavor that makes you check if someone actually left something in the oven. They didn't. It's just the coffee.

The Beans
Sticky Bun is built on a Brazilian Arabica medium roast — naturally lower in acidity, smooth body, the kind of base that carries warm, sweet flavoring without competing with it. Cinnamon, brown sugar, butter, and a hint of nuttiness need a clean, balanced foundation; medium roast Brazilian provides exactly that.
All four flavor notes come from natural and artificial flavoring applied after roasting — not a roast characteristic, not something you have to imagine. Air-roasted to order with 100% solar power. Even heat, no scorching, which keeps the cup clean and the flavoring reading as intended from first sip to finish.

How to Brew
Auto Drip: 2 tablespoons per 8 oz of water. Medium grind. The cinnamon and brown sugar notes come through clearly at standard brew strength.
Pour Over: Same ratio as drip. Steady, even pour. Clean extraction keeps the cinnamon up front and the buttery finish present.
French Press: 1 tablespoon per 4 oz of water, coarse grind. Steep 4 minutes, press slow. Full immersion brings the brown sugar and buttery depth forward — the closest thing to actually eating a sticky bun.
Iced: Brew double strength over ice, or cold brew overnight. The cinnamon and brown sugar hold up well cold. A splash of cream makes it taste like dessert made a reasonable decision.
Single-Serve Pods: 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 after opening. Best within 4 weeks of opening.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Sticky Bun Flavored Coffee
Does it taste sweet without adding sugar?
Yes — the flavoring gives it a cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter character that reads as sweet without any added sugar or sweetener. The brown sugar does most of the sweetness work; the cinnamon keeps it from going one-note. 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 nutty 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 — Sticky Bun 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. Your 3pm cup just got a lot more reasonable.
What bag sizes are available?
Sticky Bun is available in 2 oz sample, 1/2 lb, 1 lb, and 5 lb bags in whole bean, French press grind, and auto drip grind. Single-serve pods come in 12-count boxes, compatible with Keurig® 1.0 and 2.0. Decaf is available in 1/2 lb, 1 lb, and single-serve pods.
What's the difference between the bag and the single-serve pods?
Same coffee, different format. The bag gives you flexibility on grind and brew method. The single-serve pods are 12-count boxes compatible with Keurig® 1.0 and 2.0 machines — grab-and-go with no measuring required.
Is Sticky Bun coffee keto-friendly?
Yes — black coffee has zero sugar, zero sweeteners, and no added carbohydrates. The flavoring adds no sugar either. Naturally keto-friendly as a factual spec, not a lifestyle claim.
