Further enhancing its branding strategy, Visit Tampa Bay has introduced its own signature coffee, Pirate’s Plunder.
This is a collaboration with Tampa’s very own Blind Tiger Coffee Roasters.
Called Pirate’s Plunder, it is made up of Ethiopian Heirloom and Bourbon coffee varieties harvested in the winter months.
It contains notes of citrus, caramel, floral, blackberry, and cocoa.
Visit Tampa Bay says the timing couldn’t be better.
“Coffee has been an indelible part of Tampa’s history alongside as much as the Cuban Sandwich or Devil Crab,” said Santiago C. Corrada, CEO of Visit Tampa Bay.
“Tampa’s had a love affair with coffee and thanks to Blind Tiger Coffee Roasters, visitors and residents can now enjoy a deliciously roasted coffee at home with a flavor profile distinctly indicative of our region.”
Blind Tiger Coffee Roasters is a Tampa original, founded in historic Ybor City in 2014 by Roberto Torres.
Pirates Plunder is available for purchase at one of seven Blind Tiger Coffee Roasters across Hillsborough County, the Unlock Tampa Bay Visitor Center on North Franklin Street in Tampa, or online at blindtigercoffeeroasters.com.
