Great coffee spirits should start with great coffee. ☕

It was that simple idea that led to the creation of Atomic Black.

Atomic Black was created by Atomic Coffee Roasters, a family-owned business based on Boston's North Shore that's been roasting for over a decade.

Their first product, Espresso Martini, is a vodka-based liqueur that uses a blend of high-quality coffees from Honduras, Nicaragua, and Ethiopia, roasted in small batches.

Delicious on the rocks, shaken with ice for an espresso martini, or as an ingredient in your favorite coffee cocktail.
