Rich, Sweet and Complex; a Medium to Full Body with a very Smooth Cocoa Toned Finish & Low Acidity Blended for taste, each of these coffees, Colombia, Guatemala, and Brazil, have distinct body characters making the coffee more complex in the cup than a single origin varietal. The taste is sweet and well integrated and the body medium to full. The finish is cocoa-toned and very smooth with low acidity. The slight caramelization of the natural sugars in the bean give this Medium-Dark coffee a touch of roastiness, while it still retains its natural flavor character, giving it a sweet, pleasant aftertaste. 100% Arabica Whole Bean Coffee, GMO Free.

We grow, pick, and process our own coffee beans in Colombia and manage the production of over 1,000,000 coffee trees in South America through our Sharing Certified Program. We never blend our coffees with Robusta, past crop, or defective beans. We have an on staff Q Grader who ensures the quality of every bean we roast. Our roasting facility is 2020 AIB Food Safety Certified, and Certified for Organic Production by CCOF The Art of Roasting We slow roast our special beans in small batches to ensure they reach optimum flavor. Our loyal customers wouldn’t have it any other way. We found people who really appreciate a great cup of rich, aromatic, coffee can taste the difference between our fresh, properly roasted beans, and others that are roasted by the metric ton and sold by huge corporations. We roast in multiple small batch coffee roasters in a process that is half art and half science. We artisan roast by sight, smell, and sound to assure that the natural sugars in the bean are being caramelized just right! Freshness is Everything! Besides the finest quality Arabica beans and artisan roasting, another secret to great tasting coffee is freshness. The shorter the time from the roaster to your cup, the better the coffee tastes. We accomplish maximum freshness by roasting to order, instead of on a production schedule like our competitors. We roast to order in regional small batch roasting facilities in the U.S. You can smell the difference! Make your coffee as strong or as mild as you like by adjusting the ratio of coffee to water. Cafe Don Pablo coffees are always rich, smooth and delicious!
