Bird Friendly Hellbender 12oz. Bag Ground
Our signature Bird Friendly® blend, Hellbender is a blend of coffees from Guatemala and Ethiopia. It is light-medium roasted and produces a full bodied cup with low acidity, hazelnut aroma and tasting notes of strawberry, almond butter and a hint of nutmeg.
• 12oz Bag
• Ground Coffee: for standard drip, home brewer preparation.
• Custom grinding is available; add your request to the "Order Notes" section during checkout.
Due to an ongoing manufacturing issue with our retail can supplier that has affected their ability to provide cans in a timely manner, we are actively transitioning our 12oz can product to a 12oz bag.
As we work through this change and ensure our new packaging aligns with our commitment to sustainability, you may receive your coffee in different bag styles over the next few months. Rest assured, it’s the same great Chesapeake Coffee you know and love inside.
We truly appreciate your patience and continued support during this transition.

North America’s largest salamander
Hellbender Salamander • Cryptobranchus alleganiensis
Hellbender Blend was named for the Hellbender salamander. Growing up to over two feet in length, Hellbenders are North America’s largest salamander. They also "breathe" by absorbing oxygen from the water through their skin. Because of this, they survive where there is cold, clear, swift-running water. Polluted runoff, silt build up and other human impacts have diminished the types of waterways in which the Hellbender thrives. As a result, hellbender numbers have been decimated in western Maryland and Pennsylvania streams where they were plentiful as recently as 1990.
As strong supporters of clean, healthy waterways, Chesapeake Bay Roasting Company has teamed up with The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore & is donating 2% of sales from this special Hellbender Coffee Blend to assist in the research & support of the Hellbender Salamander & other native species of the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed.
