Testimonial
As an expert barista, I’ve savored top-tier coffee worldwide, but Roastlab and Kafe de Flores redefine excellence. What sets them apart is their genuine, direct ecosystem: from hand-harvesting rare Manggarai region in Flores and variety coffee, unique to the world’s to your cup. By slashing middlemen, they empower the tireless farming communities of Manggarai, ensuring every stakeholder thrives while delivering unparalleled flavor.” Huge thanks to the whole team busting their asses to make this magic happen. Here’s hoping this gem ends up in cups around the world!

The coffee shows excellent bean quality with a very well developed flavor profile. You can taste the care in the sourcing and roasting, with a balanced acidity, smooth body, and a refined aromatic complexity. The notes are well defined and the finish is elegant and lingering, a great expression of properly handled specialty coffee

I had the good fortune to meet Patrice Valette on the island of Flores during a recent trip to Indonesia. Patrice, the warm and generous man behind Kafe de Flores, had come to promote his coffee in a coffee shop where I had sat down for a drink.
We started chatting when I heard him speaking French. When he told me what he was doing in Indonesia, I shared my keen interest in good coffee and coffee farming. As we were parting ways, he generously gave me two bags of his coffee, an exceptional Robusta that I shared with a number of Vietnamese connoisseurs who agreed with me that it was an outstanding product.
During this meeting with Patrice, I tasted an unforgettable Arabica that I can't wait to share with my Parisian friends upon my return from Southeast Asia.
Thank you again, Patrice, for this unexpected moment of sharing our mutual passion for coffee.

I’m not a coffee expert, just a happy coffee drinker.
For me, coffee is a mood booster, that little spark that gets me ready before the day truly begins. That first sip wakes up not just the body, but also the mind.
Manggarai coffee from Kafe de Flores does more than just start my morning. Behind every cup is a story of origin, care, and a commitment to building a better coffee ecosystem while keeping the quality of their roasted beans exceptional.
And then there’s Kexpresso capsule speciality coffee. It’s practical, quick, and surprisingly full of flavour. Perfect for those moments when you need great coffee without the fuss. Just grab it, press the button, and go.
Honestly, it’s the kind of coffee you want to take wherever your journey leads, because good coffee should always travel with you.

I had the opportunity a few weeks ago to taste Kafe de Flores for the first time in my life. An Indonesian specialty coffee, produced in the forests of Manggarai.
Thanks to a friend who is a roaster and coffee shop manager in Rodez, Aveyron, the coffee was served to me in the proper way: ground in an artisanal mill, then brewed in a filter, its most subtle flavors were revealed. A blend of sweetness and bitterness, finesse and character, a caress for the palate. To be honest, as a novice, I had never felt such richness, such refinement in my mouth when drinking coffee.

I have been drinking this coffee for a while now, and I can honestly say that I am very happy with the quality.
From the first cup, I noticed how smooth and balanced the taste is. The aroma is rich, and the coffee feels very pure and well crafted.
What I appreciate the most is the consistency. Every time I prepare it, the flavor is the same — smooth, clean, and enjoyable.
You can clearly feel that care and attention go into the production. It’s not just coffee, it’s a quality experience.
For me, coffee is an important part of my daily routine, and it’s wonderful to find something that I truly enjoy every day.
I’m happy to recommend this coffee to anyone who appreciates good quality and a great taste.

Kafe de Flores surprised me in a good way. Their Manggarai Natural was pleasant to drink- without the overwhelming acidity and the usual astringency I find in many other beans.
But even more than that, Kafe de Flores is a feel-good coffee that reminded me that I have taken part in helping the farmers in Manggarai by taking a sip of their delicious coffee.
Kafe de Flores- I’m in love!
