Vietnamese No.1 Robusta

An intensely bold dark roast crafted from premium Grade #1 Vietnamese Robusta beans. Grown in Vietnam’s renowned coffee regions, this coffee delivers massive body, powerful caffeine strength, and the unmistakable character traditional Vietnamese coffee is famous for.

Designed primarily for Vietnamese coffee preparation or blending, Midnight Dragon produces a thick, rich cup with notes of dark cocoa, toasted walnut, and smoky caramelized sugar.

This is not a delicate sipping coffee — it is a strong, unapologetically bold roast made for those who want maximum intensity and energy. Perfect with condensed milk or blended into espresso for extra crema and strength.

OLD ITALIAN ESPRESSO

A traditional Italian-style blend of #1 Arabica beans and carefully selected Vietnam #1 Robusta
beans, sourced from a mix of origins across Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Crafted for strength, balance, and a rich, lasting crema, this blend brings together the best of all continents.

The Robusta delivers body and intensity, while the Arabica adds smoothness and depth.
When pulled, it produces an immense crema, with a full-bodied profile, low acidity, and deep notes of 100% cocoa chocolate, finishing bold and clean.

Tucked away in a valley and nestled between three volcanoes, lies beautiful Antigua, Guatemala; it is in this climatically diverse region that you will find the local farmers growing some of the world’s finest coffee. This region is perfect for cultivating coffee; with ample rainfall, elevations reaching 1,400 meters, and a constant humidity of 65%, it makes absolute sense for coffee to be the number one industry in Guatemala.

Many connoisseurs agree that Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee is the world’s best. An exquisite balance of aroma, body and mocha is the medley which makes Blue Mountain Coffee very special. However, it is the mellow sweet aftertaste that separates this unique coffee from all others.

Mavis Bank remains a place where time seems to stand still. It is a corner of the world where modern conveniences sit quietly amid unspoiled terrain. Where simple sounds and the slightest temperature changes are amplified. Favored by the ultimate combination of the ideal altitude, mineral-rich soil, gentle cloud cover, mountain shade and ample sunlight, the berry grown in the Blue Mountains take longer than others to mature. More time, some claim, for its rich flavor and aroma to develop. More time, others argue, for its signature character to evolve.

Nestled between two mountains, El Chimborazo and Las Mercedes, lies Finca Las Mercedes about 10 miles from the city of Jinotega. The Catuai variety that they grow is subjected to a rigorous quality control system which ensures that only the best beans are harvested.

Cupping Notes

This is a full-bodied yet clean coffee with only light acidity and flavor reminiscent of trail mix made of peanuts, cherries, and chocolate. Medium roast.

Since 2004, Hacienda La Esmeralda Panama has gone on to win a great number of major coffee industry awards and to set several online coffee auction price records. This makes it the hardest coffee to find. No one will have it no matter the price. Fortunatly we have a friend  in Panama that could source it for us. It took 6 years to get one sack.

Panama is a rising star in the specialty coffee world. In the Boquete in particular, farmers are taking Arabica coffee cultivation to new levels and recent auctions of small, specialty lots have garnered record, if not silly, prices. Nonetheless, some of the coffee is excellent. Gesha, a varietal that stems from Ethiopia, has been grown here with good success, yet other cultivars noted above, can produce superb results.

Designed by Bob and Hether Brown:

This is my favorite blend designed to endure the rigors of dark roasting, and produce excellent tastes, attractive flavors, and great body. Body is so important to a darker roast. Extended roasts incinerate body, and a thin cup of burned water IS NOT what French Roast coffee is about! You do not want to fully burn up all the sugars, you want some degree of sweet, overlayed on the tones of the woody structure of the bean itself. You want something voluminous, and something sharp that stings you a bit down the center of the tongue. Well, at least if you do want these things, then we share common ground, and you might like my blend. Please note that we made changes to improve the blend. I have changed the percentages and added a new coffee that became available that really enhances the chocolatiness in the Vienna stage, and the body in the darker French stage.

thank you Bob and Hether, Love you Guys :)

Papua New Guinea A/X ‘Small Farm’ honors the tribal small farmers that are the backbone of New Guinea’s coffee industry. Originating from the Waghi Valley in the Western Highlands of New Guinea, it is sweet, robust and aromatic with a remarkably clean and focused cup, very rare for New Guinea’s small farm coffees. We choose medium-city roast to showcase its natural flavor, sweet fruit and chocolate flavor, and to tease out savory accents of clean, moist earth and fresh-cut aromatic caramel.

I poured my first cup of  Kahoa coffee and sat down to experience the morning. This is without a doubt the best time of the day.  My tent is the old style four man  brown canvass type.  Besides a single cot, a wash stand, and my old foot locker, I have a table inside and one outside under the extended front flap.  Both have two chairs.  When the weather is favorable like this morning, there is nowhere I’d rather sit and sip my morning coffee than in front of my tent.  I remember thinking, “Kenyan grown Arabica Coffee from the Slopes of Mount Kenya and Mount Kilimanjaro… man, nothing better.” I love to just sit and watch the morning arrive.

Slightly earthy flavor that has a silky smooth body.  It has low acidity with hints of caramel and chocolate
