There's a specific kind of satisfaction that comes from recreating a great coffee shop experience at home. The Puroast Coffeehouse Bourbon Pecan 20oz bag was built for exactly that — a bag sized for the counter, flavored for the moment, and roasted on the only verified low acid base in the industry.
The 1.25lb Coffeehouse format is different from the standard 2.5lb bag. It's designed for freshness — smaller batch, faster turnover, the same slow-roasted Puroast base in a format that fits the rhythm of a real home coffee bar. If you're someone who rotates flavors, keeps two or three open at a time, or simply doesn't go through coffee fast enough to justify a 2.5lb bag before it starts losing its edge — this is the format for you.
Bourbon Pecan is one of the most requested flavor profiles in American specialty coffee — warm, caramelized, slightly nutty, with a whiskey-oak finish that works in a drip brew as well as it does in a latte. On a standard high-acid base, that profile collapses. The bitterness overwhelms the delicate bourbon note, and the pecan richness gets lost entirely. You end up tasting the acid more than the flavor.
On Puroast's 5X low acid base, the bourbon pecan profile finally has room to express itself fully. The oak note from the bourbon comes through distinctly in the first sip. The pecan adds a buttery mid-palate richness that lingers. The finish is clean — warm, caramelized, with none of the bitter afterburn that makes most flavored coffees forgettable by the second cup.
The Coffeehouse Bourbon Pecan opens with a warm, caramelized aroma — toasted pecan with a faint sweetness that fills the room when you open the bag. In the cup:
The Puroast Coffeehouse line brings the same slow-roasted, patent-protected base to a range of flavor profiles — each designed to recreate the best of what a great independent coffeehouse serves, without the acid load that makes most coffee shop drinks hard on your stomach after the first one.
The classic everyday Coffeehouse cup — smooth, clean, no bitterness, no burn.

Shop NowThe 20oz / 1.25lb Coffeehouse bag hits a sweet spot that the 2.5lb standard bag doesn't. For households that go through coffee slowly, smaller bags mean fresher coffee with every brew. For households that want to keep 2–3 flavors on rotation, the smaller format makes it practical without waste.
Ground coffee begins losing its peak freshness within 2–3 weeks of opening. The Coffeehouse 20oz format is sized specifically so that a 1–2 person household finishes the bag within its peak freshness window. The difference in cup quality between fresh-opened Puroast and a bag that's been open for 6 weeks is meaningful — the Coffeehouse format eliminates that degradation.
The average Starbucks flavored latte contains 3–5 pumps of syrup specifically because the espresso base is too acidic to be balanced without it. A Grande Caramel Macchiato contains 33g of sugar. A Grande Hazelnut Latte contains 38g. The sugar isn't flavoring the coffee — it's neutralizing the bitterness caused by the acid.
With Puroast Coffeehouse Bourbon Pecan, the flavor is already in the coffee. Brew it strong, add frothed milk if you like, and you have a coffeehouse-quality flavored latte with zero added sugar, zero acid burn, and a fraction of the cost of a daily Starbucks habit.
The Coffeehouse line is Puroast's 20oz (1.25lb) ground coffee format — a smaller bag designed for freshness, home coffee bar rotation, and single-household use. Same verified low acid base as all Puroast products — pH 5.82, 5X less acid than leading competitors.
Similar flavor profile — both feature the warm bourbon pecan character on Puroast's low acid base — but the Coffeehouse line is sized and ground specifically for the 20oz format and faster freshness turnover.

Pour-over, drip, and French press all work beautifully. For the most flavor expression, use a slightly higher coffee-to-water ratio — 2.5 tablespoons per 8oz. The low acid base means stronger brew equals more flavor, not more bitterness.
Peak flavor is within 2–3 weeks of opening. Store in an airtight container away from heat and light. The 20oz format is sized to be finished within that window by a 1–2 person household.
