‘Mokha Java’ {Classic Blend} is a crowd pleaser - with flavor notes of cherry cordial, clove, and red wine, it is perfectly balanced between rich and sweet. This coffee is delicious served black or with your favorite milk and sweetener.

The name ‘Mohka Java’ can be traced back more than 500 years to two of the first shipping ports where coffee was originally exported: the port of Mokha in Yemen, Arabia and the island of Java in Indonesia. Coffee cultivation started in Ethiopia; the indigenous and wild coffee plants were brought to Yemen, where it was first domesticated, systematically farmed, and turned into a global commercial enterprise. Coffee made its way to the Indonesian island of Java when Dutch colonialists smuggled Arabica seedlings from Yemen. Indonesia became the first place outside Arabia to successfully mass-produce coffee, making the island of Java so famous that "java" turned into a global nickname for the drink. Trade ships would load up with coffee from the two ports to supply the growing population of European coffee drinkers. Whether by accident or intentionally, the two beans were blended together and became the world’s first coffee blend.

Our ‘Mokha Java’ is a  two-bean blend, designed to capture the historical flavor profile. The 'Mokha' component in our blend is a natural-process Ethiopian coffee that contributes notes of fruit and cocoa. The 'Java' component is a wet-hulled Indonesian coffee that has deeper notes of earth and spice. It’s a marriage between the brightness of Africa and the depth of Indonesia, resulting in a dynamic yet balanced coffee.
