      Description

      Old Brown Java Medium-Dark Roast offers a balanced and smooth coffee experience with a well-rounded flavour profile. This roast level brings out the natural earthiness and sweetness of the beans, featuring rich notes of dark chocolate, a subtle tobacco-like essence, and a hint of vanilla. These flavours are complemented by a smooth body and a clean finish, providing a distinctive and refined cup.

      Flavour Profile and Aroma

      • Flavours: Dark chocolate, tobacco-like, vanilla
      • Aroma: Earthy with a sweet, subtle smokiness
      • Body: Smooth, medium
      • Acidity: Low, gentle

      Brewing Methods and Serving Suggestions

      For a balanced and rich cup, try brewing this medium-dark roast using a drip coffee maker, which enhances its chocolatey and tobacco-like notes. It also shines in an Aeropress, delivering a concentrated yet smooth coffee that highlights its complex flavours. For a unique twist, try it as a cold brew, which offers a refreshing way to enjoy its earthy and sweet undertones, with a mellow finish.

      Old Brown Java Origin and Details

      Originating from the island of Java, Indonesia, Old Brown Java undergoes a unique ageing process that gives it its characteristic old brown colour and deep, complex flavours. The beans are monsooned, a process in which they are exposed to the humid winds that reduce acidity and enhance earthy, chocolatey notes. The result is a coffee that is both distinctive and refined.

      • Region: Java, Indonesia
      • Processing Method: Monsooning, dry-processed
      • Ageing: Aged for several years to develop unique flavour profile

      Not good unfortunately

      First try if this and I was hoping for a rich warming brew, but even from opening the bag, it smelt bad. Bitter, almost chemical taste. Luckily I only got a small bag, as it went in the bin after attempting to make a coffee from it.

      Poor coffee

      This coffee was very bad. Bitter, barely drinkable. This was also true of the previous delivery. Which is a shame, as I have previously been happy with redber coffee. However, I have cancelled my subscription and will not buy from them again.

      Java Down ?

      Had this coffee several times but this one is .... not good. Very bitter rough acid and hard to drink.
      Maybe it got mixed up with some building aggregates?
      Surely there is some mistake, this coffee should be a warm heavyweight champion impossible to get wrong.
      Has the world gone mad ?

      Horrible, super bitter with no flavour

      I have had Java coffee many times in the past and always loved it. This batch, however, was about the worst coffee I've ever had! I wonder if global warming is destroying the crops?

      Lovely coffee

      I'm very happy with all the different coffees available at Redber and I rotate through all of them! I'm happy they are freshly roasted and available to order and collect easily and swiftly!
