The Black Crow White Pigeon varieties grown in these countries are a unique delight. Their flavour profile is a mix of fruity, floral, tea- or wine-like notes, topped off with a juicy finish.
Asian coffee has been gaining popularity lately, and the coffee market in countries like Myanmar and Vietnam has been growing steadily for the past few years, with growers in this region shifting their focus towards premium-quality coffee. Asian coffee beans are known for their distinct flavours, which are often described as bitter and include notes of spices, chocolate, tobacco, red wine, and wood.
South American coffee. These coffees are a great place to start your specialty coffee journey! If you’re new to this world, we recommend exploring Brazilian or Colombian varieties first.

Coffee is not just a drink. It is a ritual, a form of communication or even an indispensable daily companion for those who have discovered the pleasures of coffee. Every time you enjoy your favourite drink, do you wonder about the flavour nuances, layers of aromas, and stories contained within a single cup? The world of coffee is extremely diverse and rich, both in types and varieties of coffee, as well as in recipes and methods of preparation.
Each of them is a crucial part of the final result. However, whatever preparation method or recipe you choose, it all starts with the coffee itself, whether it’s the beans, the ground coffee or the capsules and pads. And then, of course, every decision and action of a person in the preparation of one’s own cup of coffee gives it a distinctive flavour profile. So, we invite you to delve into Coffee Friends’ world of coffee, where we can get to know each other better.
Everyone wants to choose the best tasting coffee, but the choice is highly individual. For some, a good coffee is mild, for others it is strong or has a distinct acidity. What gives a cup its flavour and aroma? The secret lies in the two main types of coffee beans. Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans deliver a more subtle taste, offering acidity and nuances of flavour such as fruity, berry, chocolate, and floral tones. Robusta beans provide a stronger, more intense, or even bitter flavour, often described as earthy and nutty. In order to achieve a balance of flavours, the two coffees are blended together to complement each other. Blends of Arabica and Robusta provide a balance between mildness and intensity, acidity and bitterness.
Every cup of coffee begins with its essential ingredient – the beans. Using coffee beans allows you to experiment freely and directly influence the final result. Especially when you are looking for your favourite version – you can control the grinding level of the beans, and choose different preparation methods to reveal new flavour and “body” characteristics. Oxygen, moisture, and light have minimal exposure to coffee beans.
This means coffee retains its valuable qualities for a long time in this form. So, you can enjoy fresh coffee even for a longer time after purchasing it. We offer beans from well-known and established brands as well as niche brands and a wide selection of Coffee Friends’ product lines.
For those looking for a richly flavoured coffee bean for their daily rituals, we suggest starting with our popular Caprisette bean line. Here you will find beans for both intense espresso drinkers and for those who are looking for something to complete their coffee with milk recipes.
Only a single type of coffee accounts for about 10% of the market. Which one? Specialty coffee. The reason for this is the assessment that is carried out under the strict quality system of the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Experts assess various characteristics, including aroma, flavour, aftertaste, flavour balance, acidity, body, purity, and sweetness. The Specialty Coffee Association awards the title of specialty coffee only to coffees scoring 80 points or more out of 100. So, if you are intrigued by searching the best coffee, then specialty coffee is precisely about that.
You can choose the product you are interested in from the range of Coffee Friends’ specialty coffees simply by the rating given by the SCA. In this way, you can find products quickly and easily by quality points. In this range you will also find the exclusive Coffee Friend line of specialty coffees – Black Crow White Pigeon. What makes it special? It is characterised by the richness of the different regions, where the richness of the specialty coffees is vividly revealed: from dark, deep notes to light, delicate aromas. Tasting is the best way to get to know them. You should also take a look at Coffee Friend’ speciality coffee blends line – Parallel. It combines the best qualities of blends and specialty coffees.
The words single origin or blend can be often seen on packaging. Unlike a blend, which combines beans from different regions, single-origin coffee comes from one specific area. However, such coffee is not necessarily a specialty coffee. If the packaging doesn’t display the specialty label and assessment points, the coffee is simply single-origin, not specialty coffee. Specialty coffee is usually single origin since producers don’t blend its most valuable beans to preserve their unique flavours.
Choosing between the most popular coffee preparation methods – espresso and filter – is not only a matter of taste, but also of lifestyle. For some people, it is about intense and concentrated flavour which gives a quick burst of energy, while others give priority to a gentle and prolonged enjoyment. If you like strong, rich-tasting coffee that can be prepared instantly, then espresso coffee could become your favourite choice.
But if you appreciate the possibility to enjoy a smooth drink more slowly and for longer, you will love filter coffee. It is like two different ways of life that can be combined throughout the day according to your individual needs and expectations. The Coffee Friend’ product range features the most vibrant products from both espresso and filter coffee producers. So, you can try both and discover your ideal drinking experience!
Ground coffee is probably the quickest and easiest way to prepare a cup of aromatic drink because ground coffee is pre-ground beans, which are instantly ready for your favourite way of preparing your drink. The type of coffee, the level of roasting, the coarseness and, of course, the way it is prepared, determine how much of the valuable qualities of ground coffee can be brought out in a cup. We offer ground coffee from different world producers, of different roasting level and grinding coarseness, organic or decaffeinated, and prepared for different methods of preparation, which you can also choose according to your preferred method of preparation – espresso or filter.
We propose you to pay attention to the popular Coffee Friends’ line – Caprisette. It is rich in aroma, is characterised by fruity lightness. It is the ideal option for those who like both black coffee and coffee drinks with milk for daily use. Those who prefer more aromas will love the CHiATO aromatic product line. It will make the everyday life sweeter by filling it with crème brûlée, hazelnut, Amerato liqueur or caramel. It is a line that invites you to play with flavours with relish.

Coffee Friends’ product range offers only premium quality instant coffee – organic, vegan-friendly, decaffeinated, sugar-free, with sugar, with powdered milk or with additional flavours: vanilla, hazelnut, rum, caramel. Don’t forget that instant coffee can also be a great ingredient for a variety of coffee drinks or cocktails.
You like drinking coffee but limit your caffeine intake? Decaffeinated coffee is a great alternative. Decaffeinated coffee tastes almost the same as regular coffee, but the process removes the caffeine. So, it does not cause any adverse effects. We offer premium decaffeinated products in familiar and beloved forms: beans, ground coffee, instant coffee, capsules, tablets and pads. Having those in mind who are looking for flavours that are a little stronger but not too intense, we have developed the Lullaby Decaf decaffeinated coffee of the Caprisette line. The aromatic, mild coffee has sweet notes of cashew nuts, subtle hints of cocoa and wood notes.
Yes, the most suitable coffee can be chosen in another way. For example, simply according to the coffee maker you have at home, and depending on your favourite way or method of preparation! Therefore, it can be a very convenient way to find what you need, because when the product range is prepared according to the criteria which correspond to the preparation method you use, the field of choice narrows down to a clear and purposeful one. The preparation method plays a crucial role in shaping your perfect cup of coffee. It determines flavour characteristics that will be revealed in a cup of coffee. Therefore, it can be a great way to experiment with familiar coffee in search of unfolding of favourite qualities using different preparation methods. Or vice versa, it is so interesting to follow a tried and tested preparation method in order to taste different coffees…
Coffee for the filter machine. When this method is used to prepare a drink, the flavour notes unfold widely. Therefore, such coffee is characterized by a buttery, silky “body” and a sense of cleanliness. Coffee for filter machines typically uses light or medium roasted beans. If you choose ground coffee, you can be sure that it will be ground coarser
Coffee syrups are an excellent way to add sweetness, aroma, or your favourite flavour to a cup of coffee. Just one drop is enough to turn regular espresso, latte or cappuccino into vanilla-flavoured, caramel-flavoured, chocolate-flavoured or exotic-flavoured. Syrups help you easily improvise and create your favourite coffee combinations at home. So, if you like coffee, but are bored of drinking the same one over and over again, it is not necessary to change the beans or the coffee preparation method – just a few drops of syrup are enough to change the situation.
