Kinds of coffee
Brazilian Santos
A high quality bean grown in Sao Paulo region. It is smooth, full bodied with
only a slight bitterness or acidity. Derives its flavor from the iron rich soil
- terra roxa - in which it is grown.
Colombian Medellin Excelso
Has less acidity than most Colombian coffees. Full of aroma, a light flavorful
coffee.
Costa Rican
A very mild coffee, full bodied with a nutty background. Very smooth and
satisfying.
Ethiopian Mocha
This coffee comes from the name of the original coffee plant. It is a smooth,
well-matured coffee with a distinctive aroma. Its flavor is reminiscent of a
high pheasant, hence the trade term 'gamey'. Excellent after dinner coffee.
Hawaii
A mellow and pleasant coffee, 100% pure Kona. Only coffee that is grown in the
United States.

Mountain blends available. Beware of imitations! Genuine Blue Mountain beans are
certified as such by the Jamaican Coffee Industry Board.

blend.
