About This Coffee

ROAST: Light
ORIGIN: Colombia
NOTES: Cardamom, Cloves, Spiced Cake

Cardamom Queen is a beautifully aromatic expression of everything we love about coffee when the temperatures start to drop. Warming spices, layered sweetness, and a cup that feels both comforting and unexpectedly complex. Built around a distinctive Castillo M03 from Diego Bermudez, this seasonal blend brings together fragrant cardamom, rich cloves, and the nostalgic sweetness of freshly baked spiced cake.

The first sip delivers a wave of warming aromatics, with cardamom taking center stage. Clove-like spice builds through the cup, while a soft, cake-like sweetness rounds out the finish. It's rich, fragrant, and wonderfully cozy, without losing the clarity and character that make modern coffee so exciting.

Story

The Story Behind Cardamom Queen

At ModCup, we've always believed that coffee can deliver flavors far beyond what most people expect. Cardamom Queen takes that philosophy into the world of warming spices and familiar winter desserts.

The foundation is a Castillo M03 coffee, making up 70% of the blend. Its distinctive aromatic character is complemented by 30% washed Huila, bringing balance, structure, and a clean foundation.

Together, they create a coffee that feels almost like a spiced dessert, yet remains unmistakably coffee.

Warming Spice & Winter Comfort

Cardamom Queen captures everything we love about a cozy winter coffee, but with a distinctly ModCup approach. It's aromatic without being overpowering, sweet without being heavy, and expressive without sacrificing balance.

Think cardamom cake, warming cloves, and a cup that makes cold mornings a little more interesting.
