An Amazing Roast!

You should really consider giving this roast a try from Zoka! I brew two cups every morning and it’s one of the best parts of my morning. Full bodied and shuttle hints at the end. With this roast I can drink my coffee black or occasionally I will add creamer to it. Everyone who has come for brunch has enjoyed it as well. Thank you Zoka!

Steffanie,
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled that Paladino has become such a meaningful part of your morning ritual. It’s one of our most loved blends for exactly that reason — full-bodied, smooth, and versatile enough to enjoy black or with a splash of cream.

We're especially glad to know it's been a hit at your brunch gatherings, too — nothing brings people together quite like a great cup of coffee. Thanks again for sharing the love and for making Zoka part of your day! ☕️

Taste of the Past

I started drinking Zoka coffee when they opened their first cafe in the early 1990s. I moved away from the neighborhood and only recently re-discovered Zoka after my daughters reminded me there were local coffee roasters like Zoka still. I’m so glad I can order online, and most importantly the Paladino tastes just as fresh, smooth, and rich in flavor as I remember. Coffee roasted to perfection is one thing, but a story makes it even better.

We're so grateful your daughters helped bring us back into your daily routine — and even more honored to be part of your coffee story again.
Here’s to many more cups ahead — welcome back to Zoka! ☕️💛

Best Everyday Bean

Zoka Espresso Paladino is the the most consistently delicious and forgiving espresso product I've found. I played around with several blends and roasts but found that with Paladino I was able to make minor adjustments to grind (with the inevitable changes in age and humidity) and still develop good crema and avoid bitterness. I use a Rocket R58 and Mahlkönig on demand. 28-30 seconds for 35-45 gram shot. I've been buying the 5# whole bean bag every few weeks for 5 years.

It’s awesome to hear how dialed in your setup is with the R58 and Mahlkönig, and we’re glad Paladino continues to deliver the consistency and flexibility you need, shot after shot.
