Iron Horse Coffee Company announces a limited-edition collector’s coffee, the 2102 Brew. This specialty roast was created with our roaster, Firehouse Coffee, to resonate with the power and motion of Reading & Northern steam locomotive #2102.

The result is a cup that is bold, rich, and unmistakably smooth, reflecting the strength and character of one of the railroad’s most beloved locomotives.

The coffee is packaged in a commemorative collector’s bag, making it a must-have for rail enthusiasts and coffee lovers alike. A limited number of bags will also be numbered and personally signed by Reading & Northern Owner/CEO Andy Muller, creating a unique keepsake for fans of the railroad.

“This release brings together two things people are passionate about: railroading and great coffee” said Andrea Coller, Executive Assistant to CEO/Vice President–Finance at Reading & Northern Railroad. “The 2102 Brew was designed to be both a memorable collector’s item and a coffee people will genuinely look forward to drinking.”

Beginning June 8, exclusive pre-sale access will be offered to Reading & Northern e-mail subscribers. The 2102 Brew will then be available to the public beginning June 12.

Guests will be able to sample the 2102 Brew in our tasting tent and at the King Coal Café in Jim Thorpe. Bags will be available for purchase online and at the Black Diamond Company Store in Nesquehoning, Pennsylvania, while supplies last.
