Peet's Dark Roast Ground Coffee - Major Dickason's Blend 18 Oz

Peet's Major Dickason's Blend Dark Roast Coffee has become a defining roast for the company, as it was the blend that put Peet's Coffee on the map. The idea for this beloved blend was brought to the founder, Mr. Peet, in 1969 by a loyal customer, retired army sergeant Key Dickason, who frequented the original Berkeley store. Intrigued by Dickason's suggestion, Mr. Peet collaborated with the local gourmand and coffee aficionado to refine the blend, sampling countless combinations before arriving at what has now become their all-time bestseller.

The result was so impressive that Mr. Peet decided that simply naming it after his friend was not enough. Instead, Dickason's rich and complex blend deserved a promotion from sergeant to major. Major Dickason's Blend combines the finest origin coffees from the world's premier growing regions, each contributing its distinctive regional characteristics while seamlessly blending into a smooth and balanced cup.

Over the years, this blend has become the epitome of Peet's Coffee, embodying the brand's commitment to flavorful, deeply roasted, and exceptionally satisfying coffee. For the Peet's team, "Major D" represents the story of a customer's passion, an expert's palate, and a shared love of coffee.

The one (1) 18 Ounce Bag of Peet's Major Dickason's Blend Ground 100% Arabica Coffee is a dark roast that is flavorful, robust, and full-bodied, developed through the collaboration between Mr. Peet and his most discerning customer. This ground coffee is perfectly suited for making drip or pour-over coffee using a Chemex, while the whole bean version can be used for other brewing methods, such as espresso, cold brew, or French press, with the recommendation to grind at home.

Peet's is committed to sourcing its coffee with a positive impact, recognizing that the coffee we purchase can have a significant influence on the welfare of the people and the planet involved in its production. As masters of the craft for over 50 years, Peet's hand-roasts the very best coffees in the world, ensuring a rich, complex, and incomparable drinking experience.
