This Cuban Coffee is a dark-roasted espresso blend featuring beans from Brazil, Colombia, and Guatemala. It is a robust, low-acid coffee specifically formulated to replicate the traditional Cafe Cubano style found in Miami. The flavor profile is bold and rich, characterized by notes of bitter dark chocolate, caramel, and macadamia nuts. This washed-process coffee is designed to maintain its body and texture when paired with sugar or milk, making it ideal for traditional Cuban coffee preparations like cafecito, cafe con leche, or cortadito.
Volcanica Coffee began in 2004 when Costa Rican-born Maurice Contreras started importing richly flavored beans from volcanic regions right out of his garage. What began as a side passion soon grew into a family-run specialty roaster, roasting on demand in Atlanta and sending each batch out within a day. Their approach is simple, unyielding: showcase terroir-driven, exotic single-origin beans from volcanic soils, roast them with care, and ship only when they’re at their freshest.
