Aged over a period of five years, this is a dark coffee unlike any you’ve ever tried: intriguingly rich with a smoky depth of flavour, and an intense hit of peppery spice.

Description

The unique ageing process was discovered in the 16th century, back when the Dutch introduced the first coffee seeds to the island of Java. As the spice ships carried their cargo back to Europe, the raw beans would be stored away in the hold to act as ballast. After several months at sea, the beans were tempered by the wood and the brine to produce an exceptionally robust, gutsy flavour – perfect for espressos, or as a hearty boost to a cappuccino or latte.
