Everyone is making Dubai chocolate cold brew right now.
Not everyone knows where the chocolate comes from.
It comes from the bean. And Amapiano — sourced from South Africa’s highland growing regions — is the bean that makes it work. Dark chocolate depth. Smooth caramel sweetness. Natural, not added, not flavoured.
South Africa is an emerging specialty coffee origin, and Amapiano is Joro’s way of introducing it to the world. Named for the music movement that put South Africa on the global cultural map — bold, layered, unmistakably its own — this coffee carries that same energy in the cup.
The dark chocolate and caramel tasting notes are the bean’s natural expression, shaped by the altitude and soil of South Africa’s growing regions. Medium roast preserves those notes without masking them with roast flavour. Cold brew amplifies them. Espresso concentrates them. It works beautifully across methods.
Living Wage Verified. The farmers who grew Amapiano were paid fairly. Documented. Because great coffee should feel good in every direction.

Additional Info
ORIGIN: South Africa highland growing regions
PROCESS: Washed
ROAST: Medium
TASTING NOTES: Dark chocolate, caramel, smooth finish
BEST FOR: Cold brew, espresso, pour-over
BREW GUIDE
Cold brew (recommended): 75g coarsely ground per 1 litre cold water. Steep 16–18 hours refrigerated. The chocolate notes are exceptional in cold extraction. If you want the Dubai chocolate cold brew effect, this is the bean.
Espresso: 18g in, 36g out, 28–30 seconds at 90°C. The chocolate body produces excellent crema. Works beautifully as a flat white base.
Pour-over: 20g coffee, 300ml water at 93°C, medium-fine grind. Reveals the caramel sweetness most distinctly.
FOUNDER NOTE
South Africa is an emerging origin that the specialty world is only beginning to recognise. Joro named this coffee Amapiano because the music movement and the coffee origin share the same story: African excellence, finally getting its moment.
