Named for the majestic birds found in Salt Spring Island’s Blue Heron Rookery, this medium-dark blend is unassuming one minute and bold the next—just like its namesake.

Our Blue Heron is a dynamic coffee that’s full of contradictions: it’s both sweet and spicy, nutty and bright.

The taste profile of this blend changes dramatically depending on the brew method, so it’s an excellent candidate for experimentation. The good news is you’ll end up with a tasty cup no matter how you brew. But if forced to pick favourites, we’ll choose the intense, snappy flavour of an Aeropress every time.

About Salt Spring Coffee

Inspired by the Salt Spring Island way of life, founders Mickey McLeod and Robbyn Scott embarked on a journey to bring sustainable coffee to their community.

In their quest for coffee that was environmentally friendly and fair to farmers, they built long-term partnerships with producers to source organic, shade-grown, fair trade coffee.

In 1996 Salt Spring Coffee opened its first roastery cafe on Salt Spring Island, BC. After years of success, we expanded into a larger roasting facility in Greater Vancouver to better serve our customers.

Twenty-five years later we are still family-owned and operated, and our aspirations remain the same: To be change makers through coffee – doing our part to make the world a better place.
