Tag: Mocha java

Indonesia is a major global coffee producer, a fact that includes the island of Java where coffee cultivation began in the 17th century. It was this storied tradition and prolific export trade that solidified the term "java" as a global synonym for coffee itself.

Dating back to the 17th century, Mocha Java is known as the world's first blended coffee, combining beans from Yemen and Indonesia. Contrary to some confusion, it is a coffee blend—not a chocolate drink—and it contains a moderate to high level of caffeine depending on the preparation.
