Carta Coffee Merchants, Paradise in a Cup

Carta Coffee Merchants, Paradise in a cup.FamilyBlock 2025 Dark Roast is highly praised for its use of 100% Kona beans, delivering a rich and flavorful experience. The coffee features a warm, earthy aroma, thanks to the rich volcanic soil of the Kona region. It has notes of tropical fruit and spices, with clove and allspice contributing to its distinctive fragrance. 

Flavor:

This year’s Carta Coffee Merchants Family Block offers a flavor profile that is richer and more complex than in previous years. Alongside the earthy and fiery flavors, you can also taste the alluring tropical fruits and spices, along with a hint of chocolate, making it a delightful coffee to enjoy. As the coffee trees mature, they develop their unique flavors, much like wine grapes. The soil and environment play significant roles in shaping the overall flavor, and I’m excited to see how next year’s offering will differ. This is why coffee enthusiasts keep detailed notes.

Body:

The coffee has a medium-weight body with a creamy texture that sets it apart. A pleasant surprise is its juiciness, making each cup lively and refreshing.

Acidity:

The acidity is in the medium to low range, resulting in a naturally sweet and slightly bright flavor without any sourness as it cools, which makes it ideal for cold brew or iced coffee.

When enjoyed with milk, the coffee remains delightful and even enhances its flavors. I had a great time brewing this coffee using various methods, including espresso, Moka Pot, Chemex, and the ever-reliable French Press. Each method produced outstanding results, making it difficult to choose a favorite.

Carta Coffee Merchants Family Block 2025 is recommended for those seeking a high-quality, authentic Kona coffee experience from Carta Coffee Merchants. You won’t find Carta Coffee in any store; you have to go to their website and order from there, but it is so worth it
