Irish Whiskey Barrel-Aged Coffee Beans (8oz Bag)

When we first worked with our friends at Joe Van Gogh a few months ago on an idea we had for a barrel-aged coffee IPA (also called Uncommon Grind as a means to "kick things off"), they were pretty psyched about working with us to barrel-age green coffee beans in different types of oak barrels and really explore the relationship between the barrels we use for some of our beer and the beans they source from all over the world. The first run last holiday season saw us aging organic Colombian beans in fresh-emptied Apple Brandy barrels, and our customers couldn't get enough of them.

So we decided to turn the Uncommon Grind brand into an ongoing project we'd revisit on a more regular basis, working with Joe Van Gogh to age coffee beans in new barrels we get our hands on every so often.

For this second round, we're celebrating St. Paddy's Day in style with Joe Van Gogh aging over 100 pounds of green coffee beans sourced from a small group of growers in the Tolima department of Colombia in a couple of freshly-dumped Irish Whiskey oak barrels, and then selected & roasted in a tiny batch just for Haw River Farmhouse Ales' customers.

The first batch we released a couple months ago sold out fast, so don't wait too long to get these whiskey barrel-aged coffee beans in your hands and into your favorite coffee cup soon!
