Where Craft Coffee Meets the Art of the Barrel

Kralj Kava Brewing Co.'s Whiskey Barrel Aged Coffee is a specialty craft experience unlike anything in your cup. Premium green (unroasted) coffee beans are aged inside retired whiskey and bourbon barrels — absorbing the "Devil's Cut" (the spirit trapped deep in the wood staves) and the rich aromas of charred American oak. The result is a non-alcoholic brew that carries the full aromatic soul of the spirit: bourbon, vanilla, caramel, and dark chocolate, with a smoky, creamy finish that standard coffee simply cannot replicate.

This is not flavored coffee. This is barrel-aged craft — a meticulous, weeks-long process that transforms the bean from the inside out.

How It's Made

  • 🍮 Aging: Raw green beans are placed in freshly emptied bourbon or whiskey barrels and aged for two weeks to three months
  • 🌲 Absorption: The porous beans absorb the "Devil's Cut" — the spirit trapped in the wood staves — along with the natural aromas of charred oak
  • 🔥 Roasting: Once the desired flavor intensity is reached, the beans are roasted. The heat evaporates any residual alcohol, leaving only the extraordinary flavor behind

Tasting Notes

  • 🥃 Bourbon & Vanilla — Rich, warming spirit aroma
  • 🍮 Caramel — Deep, natural sweetness
  • 🍫 Dark Chocolate — Bittersweet, indulgent depth
  • 🪫 Charred Oak & Smokiness — The unmistakable signature of the barrel
  • 🥛 Exceptionally Smooth — Lower perceived acidity and a creamy, velvety mouthfeel

Best Ways to Brew

Barrel-aged beans are more delicate and oil-rich after aging — these methods bring out the best of their character:

  • 🧊 Cold Brew — Highly recommended — long steeping extracts maximum whiskey essence and emphasizes natural sweetness
  • ☕ French Press — The metal filter allows flavored oils to pass through, preserving the full body and richness
  • 🍶 Espresso — Dark-roasted varieties deliver an extraordinary "spirit-style" espresso shot with exceptional crema

Why You'll Love It

  • Genuinely Barrel-Aged — Not flavored, not artificial — real green beans aged in real bourbon barrels for weeks
  • Non-Alcoholic — The roasting process evaporates all residual alcohol, leaving only the extraordinary flavor
  • Unmatched Smoothness — Lower acidity and a creamy mouthfeel that standard coffee cannot achieve
  • A Craft Experience — A conversation piece, a gift, and a daily ritual all in one
  • Available in Multiple Sizes & Grinds — Whole bean, standard, espresso, and coarse grind in 12oz, 1LB, 2LB, 5LB, and 12LB

Bold. Smoky. Unmistakably crafted — the art of the barrel meets the art of the roast, from Kralj Kava Brewing Co.
