Origin:
Mocha Java Essence – Earthy Blend is crafted as an alternative to the traditional Mocha Java. Instead of the classic Java and Yemen combination, this blend uses Sumatra Mandheling and Ethiopian Sidamo/Harrar beans, which offer a similar depth and complexity. Sumatra Mandheling provides a syrupy, earthy base with low acidity, while the Sidamo and Harrar beans bring a fruity brightness and floral notes. This carefully selected origin pairing honors the essence of Mocha Java, creating a rich and layered experience at an accessible price point.
Certifications:
Sourced through sustainable farming practices, Mocha Java Essence supports environmentally friendly cultivation that aligns with Spectra Coffee’s commitment to ethical sourcing.
Processing Method:
This blend combines naturally processed Ethiopian beans with wet-hulled Sumatra Mandheling. The natural process enhances the fruity notes, while the wet-hulled process on Sumatra beans deepens the blend’s earthy, syrupy body. Together, these methods create a balanced cup that showcases both regions’ unique profiles.
Flavor Profile:
Mocha Java Essence offers a rich, full-bodied experience with a complex flavor profile. Expect an earthy, syrupy body complemented by notes of dark chocolate and warm cinnamon, rounded out with a hint of berry brightness. The subtle fruity acidity from Ethiopian beans balances the deep, rich tones of Sumatra, resulting in a smooth yet dynamic cup. This blend is perfect for those who appreciate traditional coffee profiles with a twist, offering a balanced and accessible alternative to the classic Mocha Java.
Brewing Recommendations:
For the best experience, we recommend brewing Mocha Java Essence with a French press or pour-over method. A French press emphasizes the blend’s syrupy body and rich chocolate notes, while a pour-over method will bring out the fruity acidity. Use freshly ground beans and filtered water at 195–205°F for optimal extraction, adjusting the grind size for your preferred method.
