1862 Blend is a tribute to the rich heritage of Black Creek, Wisconsin, the home of Mile 22 Roastery. Originally known as Middleburg, the village was renamed Black Creek after the dark waters of the creek that winds along its edge—an enduring symbol of the region’s character and history.
Inspired by that legacy, 1862 Blend delivers a bold and satisfying cup that reflects the strength and spirit of the community. Roasted to bring out deep body and rich flavor, this blend reveals notes of dark chocolate, toasted caramel, and subtle roasted sweetness, creating a smooth yet powerful coffee experience.
Black Creek is also home to an important piece of American sports history. In 1869, the village formed one of the nation’s first organized baseball teams led by L.J. Cook, reflecting the same pioneering spirit that continues to shape the region today.
Roasted in small batches by Mile 22 Roastery, 1862 Blend captures the character of Black Creek—bold, authentic, and rooted in tradition.

This coffee shines at a medium-dark roast, where its bold body, chocolate depth, and smooth roasted sweetness are most balanced.

Roasting slightly lighter highlights smoother body and softer caramel sweetness.
Darker Option: Dark Roast
