Premium Specialty Coffee in Dubai
What is Specialty Coffee?
Specialty Coffee is not just coffee from a store or a coffee machine. This is the highest quality coffee that has undergone a special selection, professional assessment and careful roasting. Such premium coffee reveals the real taste of coffee beans - without bitterness, overroasting and chemical additives. Cantata offers gourmet coffee beans in Dubai and across the UAE.
How is Specialty Coffee different from regular coffee?
Specialty coffee is hand-picked, choosing only the ripest and highest quality berries. Damaged, green or unripe beans are immediately rejected.
If coffee scores 80 points out of 100 according to the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) system, it receives specialty status.
It's like getting an "A" in school.
Varieties with 90 points and above are considered outstanding.
We know exactly which country, region and even which farm the coffee came from. It's like with wine - the more detailed the origin, the higher the value and uniqueness of the taste.
The beans are roasted gently to preserve their natural taste. In the cup, you can feel notes of berries, caramel, nuts or chocolate - without flavorings, everything is natural.
To fully reveal the taste, specialty coffee is brewed not only in a coffee machine, but also through a funnel (v60), Chemex, Aeropress, etc. These methods emphasize subtle flavor nuances.
Where is Specialty Coffee grown?
Specialty coffee grows in special microclimates in tropical countries - from Brazil and Ethiopia to Panama and Indonesia. We offer single-origin (one region) and single-estate (one farm) varieties. In our catalog you will find Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee and Panama Cerro Punta Geisha coffee. These are selected varieties that are known to achieve outstanding scores of 90+ points on the SCA scale.
The most expensive variety in the world is Panama Geisha, its price reaches AED 6,611.40 per kilogram!
