One of our most developed blends and perfect for the lover of deep, rich notes. Roasted darker and slow as a tribute to coffee's heritage in Southern Italy, Cafe Malta's full body and bittersweet chocolate flavors taste great as both drip coffee and espresso.

Bittersweet

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

This one is also a good dark blend. Definitely has more of a bittersweet taste and I prefer a smoother blend. But still a very good coffee. If a bittersweet dark roast is your taste, this is the blend for you.

The dark roast is a favorite

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I love the dark roast. I can use less coffee and it’s still strong. The bag wasn’t sealed on this one either.

Best dark roast

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

This is the best dark roast coffee you can buy, imo. Fresh roasted, rich, and delicious, with a hint of sweetness.

👍🏼

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

The coffee is great as usual. The shipping time of subscription, not so much. It seems to always be a day after my fill date that a label is created, which then doesn't actually get shipped for another two days. Subscriptions should be both filled and shipped on the fill date.

Love! Love all the ones I’ve tried so far!
A little on the expensive side, especially having to pay for shipping on top of it, but great coffee!

FAQ


  • When you place an order from us, our highest priority is sending you the freshest coffee possible. You deserve it, and frankly so do our world class coffee producers and their coffees.

    Read our blog on the benefits of fresh roasted coffee to learn more. 

    • If you order on Monday - Thursday before 3:00pm CST, your order will ship out the next business day.
    • If you order on Monday - Thursday after 3:00pm CST, your order will ship out the day following the next business day. (ex: orders placed at 4:00pm CST on a Monday will ship on Wednesday).
    • If you order Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, at any time, your order will ship out on Monday, barring holidays. 
  • We offer three different grind sizes on the vast majority of our coffee offerings: drip, espresso, and French press.

    • Use drip grind if you plan on making your coffee using a coffee machine, in a pour over brewer, or if you want to try a newer way to make your trusty French press.
    • Use espresso grind if you have an espresso machine at home. This grind will be very fine and will over-extract (in other words, taste bitter and chalky) in other methods.
    • Use French press grind if you are making a coffee in the more traditional French Press method, or making cold brew, or do very large batches in a Chemex (greater than 60 grams of coffee). 
  • Please visit our brewing page here.  Coffee brewing is as much an art as it is a science, and it might take a few tries for you to find a sweet-spot that matches your taste preference. We recommend not getting too lost in the "right" way to brew, but instead focus on what you like and try to educate yourself on some best practices. And then just take it from there! 

    That said, we offer several how-to's for many popular brewers:

  • Our blends run from medium-light to dark. You can get a full breakdown of the blends in our Blend Buying Guide.

    Core Blends include:

    700 is our medium-roast core espresso blend that also tastes great as drip.

    Cafe Kaldi has been our house blend since 1994. It contains coffee from Ethiopia that gives it a touch of complexity.

    Dancing Goats Blend is a little more developed and gives a bit bolder of a cup.

    Highlander Grogg is a fan-favorite flavored coffee.
