HK Coffee Roaster | Grocer | Workshop in Lantau
One of the unique flavor of coffee produced in Taiwan, Yunnan and Vietnam is it’s tea like taste notes. It somehow even correlates to the taste of tea produced in that area – Oolong and Pu’er. Is the tea tone coming from the soil and micro-climate of these regions? Or it’s coming from the processing…
impressive body, convincing sweetness, and contrasting low toned cup flavors. Brown sugar, molasses, chocolate-covered nut, creamy mouthfeel. This lot of honey processed Pacas cultivar is a blend of coffees from a small producer group of 25 farmers in Santa Ana and Chalatenango. This comes to us by way of an export operation in Metepán, a…
Aromas of strawberry, raspberry, and cherry that carry over into the cup with a heavier body and mild fruit notes of graham cracker, and walnuts. Balanced acidity and sweetness, well rounded, smooth, and juicy. The name “Honey Process” actually comes from how sticky the beans get during processing. This type of processing coffee beans is…
A good fruitiness upfront balanced with spicy (hint of earthy anise) chocolate notes.

This coffee is produced by legacy farmers of various sizes in the high mountains of…

Grapefruit and cranberry flavor, with orange aroma, come with honey sweetness when cooling down.
Caramel, butter toffee, honey graham cracker, restrained notes of black tea, candied orange peel, and ample acidity. Easy honey to roast, with decadent chocolate when roasted dark. Tucked away in the Nyamasheke region of Rwanda’s Western Province is the Kanyege washing station site. At 1870 meters above sea level, Kanyege rests in the hills just…
a strong floral aspect, balanced with a full bodied nutty and chocolaty undertone. Slightly fruit forward but not a fruit bomb. The black honey processing really leave a crazy complex cup with tones ranging from lemongrass to red fruit to nutty/chocolaty and smoky undertones. Darker roasts lean it towards nutty/chocolaty more stout like features with…
A very rich, strong and smooth cup, with malt, chocolate with a little traditional earthy terroir of the wet-hulled Indonesians. An incredibly special coffee from a special place. Bali is different, in a good way. It cannot get any more beautiful, with perfect weather creating the perfect growing conditions for almost any plant. Everything is so…
