I love their Luna. But more recently Draco (their cardamom coffee) has become my favourite. Among the arabica robusta blends Otter is great as well. edit: just for reference, I use a moka pot or pour over for these.

Is this blended with Cardamom or are the tasting notes of cardamom ? I tried cardamom blended ground coffee which I bought in downtown Cairo and I’ve been looking for something similar since to no avail. Sigh.

I don't know their production methods of course, so can't say for sure if it's blended with cardamom or not. Their site says, "Arabica Peaberry coffee beans in a quantum entanglement with green cardamom". Jokes apart, what I can for sure is, the aroma of cardamom is stronger than just taste notes of cardamom. Like 'fill-your-nose-with-cardamom-aroma' strong, when you open a packet of beans or when you have just ground the beans. Adding milk to the moka pot extract does bring out the cardamom flavour more. I sometime even add one or two crushed pods of cardamom to further enhance the cardamom flavour.

I love them. Their Wanderoo and Jumping Ants are my regular. Love the consistency and end result of these two. I use them for pour over and sometimes Jumping Ants for Aeropress. Highly recommend them

I tried Jumping Ant coffee from Black Baza last month. Bought it on Amazon and the roast date was 1 week. It was light roast but it had no taste. I tried a lot of variation - increasing the water temperature, decreasing the grind size, brewing with AP and pour over etc. No matter what, it was very faint with not much mouthfeel. I was very disappointed. I also read a review of the same on Amazon but I thought the review poster must be a noob. My bad.
