For over two centuries Cuba has produced the finest Arabica coffee in the world, the flavour of which captures the excitement and passion of its people.
Cuban coffees are grown and cultivated under the forest canopies of the Sierra Maestra Mountains, in fine deep soil rich in humus and without the use of chemical products. Cuba's climate, soil conditions and careful cultivation make for an almost faultless production.
The origins of Cuba's coffee can be traced to a single plant introduced by Jose Antonio Gelabert in 1748; however the industry did not flourish until 50 years later when French Colonists who had fled the Haitian Revolution settled in Cuba. These coffee plants found an ideal home in the most fertile soil and perfect climate in the world. The standards set by the early planters have been carried on through two centuries by the dedication of the Cuban people.
Though Cuba has never been known as a volume producer of the bean, in contrast it has earned the reputation as the finest producer of quality coffee and because of this Cuban coffee occupies a privileged position in the European and Asian markets. There are several countries that produce more coffee than Cuba; however none can match the Cuban quality.
Whether it is the first cup in the morning to get the day started or a leisurely drink in the evening amongst friends the Cubans day is enriched by a coffee that reflects their passion for life. We are delighted to introduce this treasured coffee allowing coffee lovers to enjoy the Cuban experience. At any time of the day, Cuban coffee will delight, revive and stimulate the senses.
First enjoyed Cuban coffee in Cuba 2004. Have enjoyed many holidays in Cuba now it is very difficult for old over 70 to holiday in east or central Cuba. So delighted I can buy Cuban Serrano from The Love of Coffee. Bought first bag for Christmas it was wonderful. I have now ordered a big bag as taste is so special.
I first holidayed in Cuba 2004 and have loved Cuban coffee ever since. In Cuba coffee beans are usually found in Govt cigar and rum shops or at the airport, sadly on some holidays the airport shelves are empty. Once our guide mentioned his father was a coffee farmer (Govt co-operative)but if he was caught selling me beans it would be 5 years in jail!!! Saw Cuban Serrano on internet and purchased from The Love of Coffee taste lovely. Am ordering more today.
Great service and very helpful support by email. Great product, great prices. Recommended.
As always wonderful selection of fine and affordable coffees. Delivery was even faster. Strongly recommend.
Beautifully packaged into small packets. Coffee tastes great and service is first class. Thank you.
I have started using The Love of Coffee, instead of my usual suppliers, as they offer so many options on both normal coffees and also flavoured coffees. Even my postman likes delivering it, as he loves the smell!
Coffee not tasted yet, but just want to say what fantastic Customer Service, nothing too much trouble. Thank You.
I love the coffee and the service is great.
Great coffee and quick delivery.. and good customer service when I had a question.
Spent the last year trying various different coffees from around the world. We have now settled on the Cuban Serrano and Jamaican Blue Mountain as our regular order. Impressed with the Cuban coffee a good cup in the morning but also work well in the evening with a drop of rum. Definitely worth a try if you have not had it before.
Very good choice of coffees that are not easy to obtain locally. Good delivery and quality.
Fantastic selection of coffee, with recommendations based on brewing method. Great customer service and quick delivery.
Lovely coffee and amazing support team always there to help with any problems. Thank you!
Such a great company to deal with, and the coffee beans are excellent!
Excellent service, coffee arrived as described and well packaged. The level of detail and choice offered by the website is amazing and allows searching for specific requirements, like strength, and also to discover new flavours. Also learnt about the different grind coarseness depending on type of coffee machine. Awesome.
As usual brilliant service and the coffee is our weekend special.
Delivered promptly, freshly roasted great coffee at competitive rates without me having to venture into shops to find it.
CUBAN Serrano roasted beans 1kg just like O,RIELYS BAR LABANA CUBA WILL BE BACK FOR MORE THANKS.
Considering the way things are at present, coffee arrived within the normal delivery. My daughter was very impressed with the taste, said it was just like being back in SAN Juan, havin a cuban with breakfast!!!!!!
Freshly roasted coffee posted quickly... perfect!! I have tried lots of coffee companies online but have found this one particularly good. The coffee is always wonderfully freshly roasted and well packaged. Delivery is always fast. I cannot find my favourite Cuban Serrano anywhere else.. a big thank you for that! A great selection of coffees from around the world... perfect! I highly recommend For The Love of Coffee!
This was the best coffee we tasted during our 4 weeks in Cuba, so I was delighted to track it down when I got back to the UK. We've ordered the Serrano twice since then, as a special treat, and the quality both times has been excellent. Even better with a little Cuban chocolate grated on top!
Love this company. Huge choice of coffee varieties. Website is easy to use and you customise your order in terms of how dark you want the beans roasted or whether you want your coffee ground. Great customer service too. Can't recommend enough.
Very fast delivery. Well packaged, good selection and perfect coffee. Nice to have so much choice from all over the world.
Had a holiday in Cuba in December and quickly used up the bag we brought home. It was so delicious we wanted some more of the same. ‘The bag of Cuban Serrano has filled that gap.
Good coffee, good delivery, good customer service. Having used The Love of Coffee for some months my Christmas order contained one packet with incorrect beans. On notifying TLOC correct beans were despatched, next day delivery no quibble no fuss, excellent
Great service and great Coffee.
Really quick delivery and lovely coffee - great service!
