Introduction: A Smooth and Bold Brew

Looking for a coffee that balances boldness with smoothness? You’re in the right place.

At Road Dog Coffee, we understand the essence of what makes a great cup of coffee—especially for those who live life on the road. Long Haul Medium Roast is not just another coffee; it’s a tribute to the unsung heroes who keep America moving, mile after mile. Crafted for the tough, resilient, and relentless individuals out there, this blend delivers the perfect combination of flavor and power.

Long Haul coffee is aptly named for the road warriors who traverse America’s highways, sacrificing time away from their loved ones to keep the wheels of the economy turning. This medium roast embodies the spirit of those long drives and long nights, offering a reliable, rich flavor that fuels the dedication of our Highway Heroes. Every sip is a salute to the truckers who ensure our shelves are stocked and our factories keep humming. For those who endure the endless miles, Long Haul is more than just coffee—it’s your steadfast partner on the road.

Why Medium Roast?

Because it strikes the perfect balance between light and dark roasts, offering a smooth, yet robust flavor that can kick-start your day or keep you going during those long hauls. Our Long Haul Medium Roast isn’t just coffee—it’s fuel for your journey.

What Is Medium Roast Coffee?

Medium roast coffee brings out the best in the beans, providing a balanced flavor profile that’s neither too mild nor too overpowering. The result? A smooth coffee that retains the unique characteristics of its origin while offering a well-rounded and satisfying taste.

Unlike light roasts, which can be overly acidic and sometimes thin, medium roasts offer a fuller body with lower acidity. On the other hand, dark roasts can sometimes overshadow the bean’s natural flavors with their intense smokiness. Medium roasts like our Long Haul blend offer the best of both worlds—a flavor-packed experience without sacrificing the coffee’s inherent qualities.

It’s no wonder that medium roast coffee is a favorite among American coffee drinkers. Its balanced flavor makes it ideal for any time of day, whether you’re starting your morning or powering through the afternoon.

Among our lineup, the Long Haul Medium Roast stands out for its smooth yet bold flavor. It’s quickly becoming a favorite among our customers, especially those who appreciate a coffee that’s as hardworking as they are.

The Roasting Process: An Art and Science

The process of roasting medium roast coffee beans involves carefully controlling the temperature and timing.

The beans are roasted until they reach a medium-brown color, which usually occurs after the first crack and just before the second. This careful timing ensures that the beans develop a balanced flavor, with the perfect mix of sweetness, acidity, and body.

During roasting, the beans undergo the Maillard reaction, a chemical process that creates complex flavors and aromas. As the heat rises, the sugars in the beans begin to caramelize, adding layers of nutty and sweet notes to the coffee. It’s these reactions that give our Long Haul blend its distinctive flavor profile.

You’ll taste notes of caramel and roasted nuts, with a smooth finish that lingers on the palate. It’s the kind of coffee that keeps you coming back for more, sip after sip.

THE RDCC COFFEE LINEUP

While our Long Haul blend is a standout, it’s just one part of our lineup. 

Compared to our Expedite blend, which offers a fruitier, more intense flavor, the Long Haul is smooth and more caramel-forward. 

And if you’re looking for something even darker, our Black Dog blend delivers a rich, robust flavor with a higher caffeine kick.

Why Choose Long Haul Medium Roast?

When you choose the Long Haul blend, you’re getting a smooth, high-caffeine brew that’s designed to keep you alert and focused, no matter how long the drive. Plus, it’s made with organic, fair-trade beans, so you can feel good about every sip.

Long Haul is perfect for any time of day, whether you’re starting your morning with a strong cup or need a pick-me-up during a long drive. It’s the ideal coffee for truckers, commuters, and anyone who needs a reliable source of energy.

Brewing Methods: Get the Most Out of Your Coffee

To get the best out of your Long Haul Medium Roast, we recommend using a French press, pour-over, or cold brew method. Each method brings out different aspects of the coffee’s flavor, allowing you to enjoy it to the fullest.

The brewing method you choose can have a big impact on the flavor of your coffee. For a richer, more full-bodied cup, try using a French press. If you prefer a cleaner, more nuanced flavor, go with a pour-over. And for a smooth, refreshing brew, cold brew is the way to go.
