What say you to a mug of marvelously different joe? What if we call it Henley instead? Henley Von Roastingburg coffee is as unique as its name, and I’ve had quite a taste for it lately. A micro-batch coffee roasting company, Henley Von Roastingburg offers a selection of beans that are roasted right before shipment. My bag of Costa Rican SHB Villalobos came straight from roasting; it was evident as soon as I opened the delivery box. That wonderful aroma snagged me by the nostrils like a bull by its nose ring and I knew I’d had it - nothing could be done but to have a coffee fix right away.
And a fix it is! I love unique coffees with multiple layers of flavors and aromas. I don’t review boring coffee. In fact, I prefer to ruin boring coffee forever for every guest entering my house. Preparing a labor-intensive cappuccino with the Villalobos beans and serving it to overnight guests as part of their breakfast was so much fun because I knew they’d arrive home to a plastic bucket of coffee that was roasted and ground months before it even hit the store shelves. The Villalobos bean we enjoyed has a caramelly, spicey flavor that tastes and smells exotic. If you allow it to linger on the palate, you’ll find much more there to love. I enjoyed watching my guests’ eyes roll back in their heads. They loved it, burying their noses in their mugs, smacking, swirling - we looked like an early morning group of professional wine tasters.

I LOVE Ethiopian Yrgecheffe-perfectly ripe citrus fruits w/ cinnamon and pepper to balance it out! I was most impressed that Henley Von Roastingburg Coffees (love the name btw) are micro roaster! How neat to only roast up to #10! Talk about great quality assurance! Thanks for the review. I love the coffee cup picture. Can’t you just smell it????
I am now following you via email~! Can’t wait to read more! Thx

They hooked me as soon as I saw the elegant dude on the front page and the music began playing! The delicious descriptions of the coffee don’t hurt, either.
Yum!
Besides having a pretty cool name (C’mon…Van Roastingburg?), the site has neat little ‘recipes’ of how to enjoy your coffee either by French Press or Drip. We’re drippy drippers in our household, but that description makes me want to get a French press!!
I noticed that this is not the first time at all that you write about this topic. Why have you chosen it again?
