Ever since then, this coffee has been our every day brew from open to close.<\/p>\n<p>Here in Seattle, there is\u00a0a Special Reserve Pike Place that is only sold in two stores, the original 1912 Pike Place store, and around the corner at 1st and Pike. This blend was created in 2003 to commemorate the first Starbucks store. Inspired by our rich history, this is a blend of three Latin American beans;\u00a0Costa Rica Bella Vista, Guatemala Antigua and Colombia Nari\u00f1o Supremo. Pike Place Special Reserve is roasted a bit darker than usual, is incredibly smooth\u00a0with a touch of roast intensity.<\/p>\n<p>Every year I celebrate Pike Place day, and I always bring a bag of Pike Place Special Reserve to kick things off. This is Starbucks history in a cup.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Pike Place Special Reserve is a medium bodied coffee with a medium acidity. With it&#8217;s complex flavors, it pairs well with nuts, cinnamon, brown sugar and chocolate.\u00a0I had the perfect recipe for this, an old bundt cake recipe from the 50&#8217;s, given to me by a friend whose mother baked this cake on special occasions. Her original recipe had more of a german chocolate cake vibe to it, but I was able to tailor it to this coffee. The result is a delicious moist cake with a strong coffee forward flavor. This recipe will also pair very well with Guatemala Antigua, Veranda, Yukon Blend and <a href=\"https:\/\/themodernbarista.com\/index.php\/coffee-journey\/bainbridge-island-blend\/\">Bainbridge Island blend<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"https:\/\/themodernbarista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/tmb_ppsr-e1446485300904.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Happy Birthday Pike Place Roast<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">Jocelyn Freeman<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ingredient\">[b]For the bundt cake[\/b][br][br]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 cups sugar<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 cup oil<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 eggs<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">3 cups flour<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">3\/4 cup unsweetend cocoa powder<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 teaspoons baking soda<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 teaspoons baking powder<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 1\/2 teaspoon kosher salt<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 sticks of Starbucks VIA dissolved in 1 cup of hot water<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 cup buttermilk<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/2 cup chopped walnuts[br][br]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">[b]For the filling[\/b][br][br]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1\/4 cup sugar<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">8 oz brown sugar cream cheese, softened (regular cream cheese will work too)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 egg<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 cup dark chocolate chips[br][br]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">[b]For the glaze[\/b][br][br]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 cup powdered sugar<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 stick of Starbucks VIA<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">3 tablespoons of butter, room temperature<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">2 tablespoons vanilla extract<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1-3 tablespoons of hot water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Generously grease and flour a 10&#8243; tube cake pan.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Preheat oven to 350.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Prepare the filling.
