Is it Milky Cake enough?

That's the debate.

This new batch of Milky Cake retains its essence: creamy body, vanilla, and that spicy touch that made it famous.
But this time there's a twist.

More acidity.
More fruit.
Fewer intense spices.

Produced by Diego Bermúdez at Finca El Paraíso, this lot with controlled fermentation takes the classic profile towards a brighter and more modern version.

Some feel it's the same.
Others notice the change instantly.

We're clear about it:
👉 it's still Milky Cake… but with evolution.

Now it's up to you to decide.

Process

Processed using advanced controlled fermentation washed:

Precise selection of ripe cherries
Controlled fermentation to develop a specific profile
Washing to maintain clarity
Technical drying for stability and consistency

This approach allows for the replication of profiles… but with slight natural harvest variations.

Dak was born from a true passion for coffee and the desire to embark on a never-ending journey of discovery. We are located in Amsterdam.

We select our coffees based on their unique cupping profiles and, of course, that they are 100% traceable. We partner with importers who share our values ​​and carefully roast each of our coffees to deliver the best flavors they have to offer.

We roast on an IMF machine which provides a high degree of control and consistency in our roasts. The machine uses a convection system that allows the coffees to be properly developed in a shorter time. The result is clean, bright and sweet coffees.
