Three Kings Edition — Dark Roast | Guadalupe Gold Coffee, Nicaragua

Three Kings Edition is a dark roast from Guadalupe Gold Coffee inspired by the gifts of the Magi — Gold, Incense, and Myrrh. Grown at 1,000–1,800 meters, the beans develop high acidity and natural sweetness at elevation, then the dark roast draws out body depth and the subtle oils that define the cup character. Natural sweetness leads, dark chocolate depth runs through the middle, and the finish has a distinctive resinous, aromatic quality — what the description calls “myrrh essence,” meaning a slightly bitter, balsamic, lingering finish note that evokes the actual substance without being added flavoring. It’s an unusual and memorable tasting note in a dark roast.

Available in whole bean or ground, 12oz or 5lb.

Three Kings Edition is the most thematically distinct coffee in the catalog — a dark roast with a Magi-inspired profile built for the Catholic Coffee collection. The myrrh finish is a genuine differentiator; if you’ve never had a coffee with that resinous aromatic note in the finish, this one is worth trying black in a French press to taste it clearly.
