EnglishWhat Coffee Blends and Featured Coffees Does The Green Coffee Bean Company Offer?
Updated
The Green Coffee Bean Company lists two popular blends and four featured coffees on its site: Killer Whale Coffee and Snappy Rockfish under "Our Most Popular coffee Blends," plus Cape Chacon Coffee, Big Buck, Colombia - Excelso, and Sumatra - Takengon as featured coffees. The company describes itself as an Alaska-owned roaster specializing in gourmet coffees and teas from around the world, so if you want to order beans shipped to your door, these are the named options to start with.
The two popular blends
These are the blends the site highlights first, under the heading "Our Most Popular coffee Blends":
- Killer Whale Coffee — one of the two flagship blends featured on the homepage.
- Snappy Rockfish — the second flagship blend.
Both appear alongside the site's "Featured Coffees!" section, which suggests they are the roaster's core, recurring offerings rather than one-off releases.
The four featured coffees
The featured list mixes origin-specific coffees with named house offerings:
| Coffee | What the name tells you |
|---|---|
| Cape Chacon Coffee | A named house coffee; the site links out to it in a new tab |
| Big Buck | A named house coffee, also linked in a new tab |
| Colombia - Excelso | A Colombian origin coffee; Excelso is a common Colombian grade/classification term |
| Sumatra - Takengon | An Indonesian origin coffee; Takengon is a well-known growing area in Sumatra |
The two origin coffees (Colombia and Sumatra) are the clearest signal of the "coffees from around the globe" positioning. The other four names are branded blends or house coffees, so the site itself is the best source for their exact roast level, tasting notes, or bean composition — those details aren't given on the homepage.
How to decide between them
- If you want the roaster's signature picks: start with Killer Whale Coffee or Snappy Rockfish, since the site presents them as the most popular blends.
- If you prefer a known single origin: Colombia - Excelso or Sumatra - Takengon are the two options identified by origin and growing region.
- If you want a named house coffee with local character: Cape Chacon Coffee and Big Buck fit that description, and both are linked directly from the featured section.
Because the homepage doesn't list prices, roast profiles, or flavor descriptions for any of these, check each product page (the featured coffees open in a new tab) before ordering if those details matter to you.
Beyond the coffee
The same site also covers two related categories:
- Buy Coffee — described as "great coffees from around the world, shipped right to your door."
- Buy Tea — handled through The Green Tea Leaf Company, offering teas from around the world.
There's also a $25 Gift Card available by visiting the Ketchikan cafe or emailing [email protected]. Note the site states the gift card is valid for in-store purchases only, not online, and can be mailed to you or picked up in person.
A practical note before ordering
The company operates a cafe in Ketchikan, Alaska, and also ships online orders. If you're choosing between the blends and featured coffees, the homepage gives you the names but not the brewing or flavor details — so the product pages, or a quick email to [email protected], are the way to confirm what each one actually tastes like before you commit to a bag.
