Bad Teddy Coffee Launches New Flavored and Non-Flavored Roasts

— June 10, 2025 — Lifestyle
Bad Teddy Coffee is officially stepping onto the U.S. specialty coffee scene with a mission to shake up flavor expectations. The brand recently introduced an initial collection of premium flavored coffees and is already expanding its lineup with three new additions: a chocolate blueberry blend and its first two unflavored roasts in medium and dark.

Bad Teddy is distuinguished by its signature 24-hour flavor infusion process, which embeds flavor directly into the beans prior to roasting. Unlike traditional methods that rely on post-roast coatings or sprays, this technique ensures a more integrated, nuanced taste experience.

"Bad Teddy was built on the idea that flavored coffee can be both high-quality and imaginative," said Aslan Monge, founder and CEO. "Many products in this category rely on artificial flavorings or low-quality beans. We've taken a different approach, emphasizing careful sourcing and a more rigorous flavor development process."
