Alt Wien Kaffee

About This Coffee

This is a pure Robusta coffee from Mexico, certified organic and Fairtrade. Grown by the FEDCAFE cooperative of 585 smallholder farmers in the Tuxtla area of Chiapas at 1,100 meters altitude in the Sierra Madre. The coffee is processed using the traditional Robusta method. This Mexican Robusta is relatively rare, as the region typically grows Arabica varieties. The coffee contains significantly more caffeine than other coffees and is characterized by dense, powerful, dry flavor with almost no acidity due to lower fruit acid content compared to Arabica.

Operating since 2000 from Schleifmuhlgasse in Vienna's Wieden district near the Naschmarkt, Alt Wien Kaffee is a roastery with deep roots in the city's coffee tradition. They roast daily in small 12 kilogram batches, and every roast is handpicked following traditional methods, yielding over 40 varieties that span strong and dry to mild and fruity. The lineup includes both Arabica and Robusta blends, with several organic and fair trade certified options among the 14 or so types of coffee available at any time. All beans are roasted naturally without additives, and there is a tasting bar where customers can try freshly roasted coffee on the spot. The roastery appeals equally to traditionalists and more adventurous coffee drinkers, and the knowledgeable baristas are known for guiding people through the range with genuine expertise.
