Coffee Profile
Loggerhead Sea Turtle Blend was developed to celebrate our passion for sea turtle conservation. This organic, well-crafted blend, created by our founder Lowell Grosse, is a well-balanced and aromatic coffee combining high quality coffee beans from Mexico, Guatemala, and Colombia. Enjoy this medium roast coffee first thing in the morning or as an afternoon pick me up and try it as a pour over coffee, to allow its delicate flavors and aromas to come to life. Its well-balanced body and bright taste are equally as inviting as a drip coffee or using a French press. You decide! If you like our Charleston Organic and Breakfast Blends, this new coffee is custom-made for you.
Why Is Sea Turtle Conservation So Important to Us?
Lowell Grosse founded Charleston Coffee Roasters in 2005. While he was raising his family here in Charleston, he spent many days on our local beaches and visiting the South Carolina Aquarium. Lowell was so passionate about sea turtle conservation, that it inspired our loggerhead “turtle bean” logo and led us to develop a partnership with the South Carolina Aquarium. As the lead sponsor of the Nutritional Care Program at the South Carolina Aquarium, we provide funding for continued animal care to positively impact the lives of the Aquarium’s permanent residents, as well as the treatment and rehabilitation of sick and injured sea turtles in the care of the South Carolina Aquarium Sea Turtle Care Center™. By supporting Charleston Coffee Roasters, you help our business support the efforts of the South Carolina Aquarium.

Just received my order and I was eager to taste. This didn’t disappoint! What a delicious treat with a touch of caramel and dark chocolate. This coffee is perfect and so smooth and relaxing. I have found my new favorite, although the Charleston blend will always have place on my counter too. Thank you!!!

This is a really delicious coffee. I normally try to buy only the organic coffees but broke my rule to try this as soon as it launched. Who can resist a Loggerhead Sea Turtle Blend? I’m glad I did give it a chance as it really is a great coffee with a rich smooth flavor…just wish it was organic.

I’ve been drinking CCR for about a year now. So far, I’ve tried about 10-12 blends. I was very excited about the addition of the Loggerhead blend. I tried it for the first time today and was not disappointed at all. Loggerhead has the same bright, yet bold flavor I’ve come to expect from CCR. The subtle hints of chocolate and caramel come through from the first sip, and as it cools, it maintains the boldness without becoming bitter. I won’t say it’s my favorite CCR blend yet, but in definitely ranks in the top 3.
