JAZ Improv : Traveler Series : Mexican Mocha
This is a ton of fun in a cup! A real comfort coffee, with genuine Mexican Ceylon (sweet) cinnamon and mocha flavors. The base is the Brazil Cerrado in a two-temperature roast, with 20% Vietnamese Robusta contributing to the natural chocolate tones of this concept coffee. One of our top-selling JAZ Improv coffees all year round.
We were surprised to find out that Mexican cinnamon generally originated from Ceylon. Ceylon cinnamon is the "real" cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum -"true cinnamon"), with tons of health benefits. Most other cinnamons are related, but often have less-than healthy elements in them, as they are simply a different species of tree with different genetic makeup. Ceylon cinnamon is what most of grew up with; it was ubiquitous in Sticky Buns and baked treats we love. We sourced genuine Mexican sticks of Ceylon cinnamon and Mexican chocolate, and created our own flavor extract for this fun coffee. There's just a touch of natural orange and organic vanilla to complete the profile of this satisfying mocha coffee.
1 lb (16 ounces), please choose drip grind or whole bean.

The Araku Valley of India
India's coffee tradition goes back 400 years or more, when a variety called Kent was first established in the Southern Hills. Arabicas predominated until the blight of 1870, when growers needed to hybridize to resistant varieties. The resultant strains had genes from Liberica and other unique, resistant species.
