Java 'Dutch Estate' Coffee (5lb Bag)

You may be wondering why coffee is sometimes called java. The term itself actually means "coffee grown on the island of Java," and Java is the largest of the Indonesian islands. These Java 'Dutch Estate' coffee beans have a piquant aroma and offer a quick finish with a zingy tinge and a chocolately undertone that will make you understand why everyone wants to attribute their coffee to be 'Java.'

Grown in volcanic soil at 4, 500 feet, this medium roast has a classic Indonesian coffee flavor. However, coffee cultivation hasn't always come easy to Indonesia. With the Dutch originally bringing Arabica coffee plants over, the Arabic did not grow as well as the people of Indonesia wished. Instead of giving up on coffee production, the people of Indonesia and Java sought after a different kind of coffee bean tree and discovered Liberica beans. To this day, Indonesia's Java 'Dutch Estate' coffee beans still come from these successfully growing trees.

In Java, it is tradition to share a cup of coffee with any visitors that come to your house. With Java 'Dutch Estate' you can keep it to yourself or share if you want, but regardless, you will bask in the sweet flavor, heavy aroma, and feel indulged in the chocolate undertones.

Ok, but too bitter

Dutch Estates is another high-quality coffee from Gourmet Coffee. I have been buying their five-pound bags of mostly medium roast for some time. This service is great, and the coffees are excellent. This choice is down a notch for my taste.
Pros
  • Fresh, just roasted, high quality beans.
Cons
  • Too bitter for my taste. I like a bean that is more full-bodied and smoother. I am not a coffee gourmet, however.

Oh, so THATS why they call coffee Java!

A medium roasted, mild flavored and smooth coffee. Very smooth. It’s a pleasant start to any morning, an enjoyable mid day experience and a welcoming after dinner cup that won’t make you afraid to go to bed. Java is an “all day†coffee.
