How to Purchase Batch Peak’s Chocolate-Covered Coffee Beans:
As a home-based processor under Kentucky’s Cottage Food Laws, we sell our delectable, non-perishable coffee and chocolate-covered coffee beans directly to consumers within the state. You won’t find these on major online retailers or in big-box stores due to the direct-to-consumer focus of cottage food regulations. Here’s how you can purchase our seven unique flavors:
Farmers’ Markets and Local Events: Look for Batch Peak’s booth at Eastern Kentucky farmers’ markets, such as the Prestonsburg Farmers Market, or at local festivals and community events. These venues are perfect for sampling flavors and buying directly from the artisans.
Roadside Stands or Pop-Ups: Batch Peak may set up roadside stands or pop-up shops around Floyd County. Check local community boards or social media for announcements about where we’ll be selling next.
Direct Contact: Reach out to Batch Peak via their website, social media, or phone to inquire about availability. We offer pre-orders or arrange local pickups for Kentucky customers.
Local Shops and Cafes: Some Floyd County cafes, gift shops, or specialty stores may allow us to provide Batch Peak’s products as part of their Kentucky-made offerings during special events. Ask around in Prestonsburg or nearby towns. Scheduled pick up and delivery at numerous locations available per request.
Since our production is small-batch, these treats can sell out quickly. If you’re in or visiting Floyd County, plan to grab yours at one of these local venues to experience all seven flavors!
The Seven Unique Flavors of Batch Peak.
Batch Peak’s chocolate-covered coffee beans are a celebration of Kentucky’s flavors, each crafted with care to highlight local flavors:
Pawpaw: Known as “Kentucky’s banana,” this native fruit brings a creamy, tropical blend of mango, banana, and citrus to the chocolate coating, pairing perfectly with the coffee’s bold notes.
Sorghum: Kentucky’s signature sorghum syrup adds a deep, molasses-like sweetness with a smoky edge, creating a rich, caramelized chocolate layer.
Black Walnut: This nutty, earthy flavor, sourced from Kentucky’s native black walnuts, infuses the chocolate with a robust, slightly bitter depth that complements the coffee’s intensity.
Blackberry: Juicy and tart, mountain blackberries lend a vibrant, fruity sweetness to the chocolate, making for a bright and refreshing treat.
Apple Butter: Slow-cooked and spiced, KY style apple butter brings a warm, autumnal sweetness to the chocolate, evoking the comfort of Kentucky’s fall harvest.
Honeysuckle: Delicate and floral, honeysuckle infuses the chocolate with a sweet, nectar-like flavor, offering a light and unique twist.
Milk Chocolate: A classic for purists, this smooth, creamy milk chocolate coating lets the roasted coffee beans shine with timeless simplicity.
Each flavor showcases Batch Peak’s creativity and Kentucky’s rich agricultural heritage, making every bite a taste of the Bluegrass State.
