common questions

What does JAVA taste like?

java leads with chocolate, covering both the creamier milk chocolate side and a drier, more bitter dark chocolate edge. it's a clean, straightforward cup without prominent fruit or acidity.

How is JAVA grown and processed?

java comes from the island of java in indonesia and is processed using the washed method, meaning the fruit is removed before the beans are dried. this results in a cleaner, more defined flavour compared to wet-hulled or natural indonesian coffees.

How should I brew JAVA?

java suits both filter and espresso brewing. the washed process and chocolate-forward profile respond well to consistent water temperature and grind size, so dialling those in carefully will give you the clearest expression of the cocoa notes.

about illimani koffiebranderij

the koffie here is the reason to come, and if you're in the theresiastraat area you shouldn't walk past without stopping. illimani koffiebranderij roasts its own beans, which means what ends up in your cup isn't a commodity blend sourced from a middleman. that distinction matters more than people give it credit for. the regulars who keep returning to this spot on theresiastraat 262 know it, and the word-of-mouth reputation this place carries in den haag's specialty scene has been built slowly, not announced. you can feel the difference between a roaster that exists to move volume and one that actually thinks about what it's producing. a filter coffee here, taken black, is probably the most honest version of what this place is.
