Brown Acid Coffee
This batch is good.
Spices with honey right behind it, then milk chocolate on the way out. Medium roast, nothing scorched, nothing burnt down to ash. The name promises danger. What lands in the cup is the good trip.
RidingEasy has spent a decade running the deepest dig in heavy rock: private-press 45s from bands who booked one studio day, pressed three hundred copies, played the VFW hall and then went back to work. The Twenty-Third Trip is the newest haul.
We built the cup to match: half Ethiopia, half Colombia Huila, split right down the middle. The Ethiopia brings the peach and the lift. The Huila is washed and grown up at 1,500 meters and brings the honey and the milk chocolate. Roasted medium so neither one gets buried.
Officially licensed Brown Acid coffee, roasted in Detroit, twelve ounces. Drop the needle, turn it up past where the neighbors like it, pour another. Corky sez: they warned everybody about the brown acid. Nobody said a word about this. Strictly limited. When it's gone, it's gone.

Since 2015 RidingEasy Records has been digging up the heavy stuff that never made it out of the early seventies: private-press 45s cut by bands who booked one studio day, pressed three hundred copies, played the VFW hall and the parking lot, and then went back to work. Fuzz, volume, and no budget.
The Twenty-Third Trip is the newest haul. Heavy rock from the underground comedown, exactly as it says on the sleeve.
Pressed on transparent red and purple smash. Fifty copies for Corky's, and paired with a coffee we blended for it: Brown Acid Coffee, half Colombia Huila and half Brazil, chocolate and honey and spice.
Corky sez: this batch is good.
