Vietnamese Dalat Bourbon Arabica

Dalat has very little land at altitude high enough to grow premium Arabica, and Bourbon is the ideal species for the soil and altitude in this lower region of the Annam Highlands (today called the Central Plateau). Chocolatey, buttery, lower in acid than other Arabicas, this variety fits the preferences of Vietnamese growers since ~1900.

Bourbon Arabica beans are characterized by a roundness and mellowness of flavor that modern arabicas often lack, coupled with a balanced acidity and smooth mouthfeel. Bourbon is unique in that it matures/ripens slowly after roasting and maintains a wonderful profile that seems to age well over weeks.

1 lb bag roasted coffee, Medium roast. Please select ground or whole bean.

Please note: We are only selling in 1-lb bags on this coffee now due to a shortage of 8 ounce bags. The price is the same per pound as it was with the 8 ounce bag :-)

  2. 5 Star Review Smooth and mellow

    I was pleasantly surprised by this variety - and is now a big fan. Love the mouthfeel and no bitterness at all! I used the pour over method and hit the sweet spot on the first try. Now one of my favorites!

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.
