Enjoyed for its fine balance of dark fruit, Swiss chocolate, and nutty tones with medium acidity. Heritage is Pilot's feature cafe espresso blend but performs well on any brewing method. Its sweet and full-bodied characteristics are designed to stand the test of time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Pilot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAndy Wilkin and Jessie Holmes started Pilot in 2009 as Te Aro Roasted in a converted car garage in Toronto's Leslieville, inspired by the cafes Andy knew from his hometown in Wellington, New Zealand.\u003c\/strong\u003e What began as a micro-roastery helping new cafe owners with equipment and training grew into a specialty coffee hub as Toronto's coffee scene emerged. By 2013, they rebranded to Pilot Coffee Roasters and now operate cafes across Toronto, Oakville, and Waterloo with wholesale partners coast to coast. Their direct trade approach focuses on long-term producer relationships built on quality, transparency, environmental responsibility, and fair wages - prioritizing partnership over transaction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"I first visited Te Aro in 2012 - my friends on the east end of Toronto raved about the coffee, and it didn't disappoint. Later in my career, a trip to a Pilot cafe downtown had become a daily staple for me, and so it seems inevitable to include them in Stillwater's Coffee Club experience.\"  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Dean, Director of Coffee\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Pilot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43712314409020,"sku":null,"price":22.25,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/2880\/1852\/files\/Product_Carousel_Heritage_1.jpg?v=1764426923","url":"https:\/\/stillwatercoffee.ca\/products\/heritage-blend","provider":"Stillwater Coffee Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
