Viennese Blend

The Vienna coffee bean blend is a symphony of softness, culminating in a delicate vanilla finish. Crafted for a simple, pleasurable cup of coffee, our Viennese blend is delicious on its own, but a dollop of "schlag" (unsweetened whipped cream) transforms it into a regal dessert fit for royalty.

Background:

Mellow Gillies Brazils and mature off-the-green Centrals come together in a dance of dark roasting, echoing the traditions of the Hapsburg era. In the venerable Hapsburg capital dating back to 1683, amidst the echoes of the Turkish siege of Vienna (perhaps even earlier), coffee found its place. Drawing from the rich heritage of our Schoenholt family, who journeyed to the US from Austria-Hungary, we pay homage to the old country with our Vienna blend.

Legend has it that the Vienna blend transcends its origins, making for an excellent Northern Italian-style espresso reminiscent of Trieste, a pre-World War I Austrian city. Trieste, a city close to my heart, brings memories of my friend Dr. Ernesto Illy of Illycaffe, whose family's roots trace back to Austria. While the Illys base their blend on Brazils, they opt for a lighter roast compared to the Hapsburg tradition. Indulge in the richness of history with Rich Dark Roast™.
