The Turtle candy — chocolate, caramel, and pecan — is one of the most beloved confections in the world. Our Turtle coffee captures that same combination in a cup: rich chocolate depth, buttery caramel sweetness, and a warm hazelnut finish that rounds it all out. Three flavors that each deserve their own cup, together in one. Celebratory in every sip.
Why We Made This
We use natural chocolate, caramel, and hazelnut flavoring applied to specialty-grade Arabica beans while they're still warm from roasting. The warmth opens the bean's pores and locks in the aroma and flavor. The result is a coffee that smells like a candy shop from the moment you open the bag and delivers on that promise in every cup — without any artificial aftertaste. We made this because some flavor combinations are simply too good not to put in a coffee.
Flavor Profile
- Rich chocolate — deep and prominent, the backbone of the cup
- Buttery caramel — warm and sweet, the middle note that ties everything together
- Warm hazelnut — a toasty finish that rounds out the combination
- Natural sweetness — the three flavors combine for a cup that's sweet without added sugar
- Smooth, medium body — substantial but not heavy
- Long, indulgent finish — all three flavors linger pleasantly

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the flavoring natural?
Yes — natural chocolate, caramel, and hazelnut flavoring only. No artificial flavoring, no synthetic aftertaste.
How does Turtle compare to Chocolate Hazelnut?
Chocolate Hazelnut is two flavors — chocolate and hazelnut in balance. Turtle adds caramel to the combination, producing a more complex, three-note cup. If you love Chocolate Hazelnut, Turtle takes it further.
Do I need to add sugar?
No — the three natural flavors combine for a cup that's naturally sweet. Most people enjoy it without any added sugar, even black.
What roast level is this?
Medium. Calibrated to let all three flavor notes shine equally without any one dominating.
