St Helena coffee is less of a beverage and more of a piece of liquid history. Often cited as one of the world's most expensive and rarest coffees, it is famous for being the "only good thing" Napoleon Bonaparte found on the island during his exile.
Connoisseurs generally describe it as a delicate, refined brew rather than a heavy, punchy one.
It typically has a silky-smooth body and a bright, wine-like acidity that isn't overpowering.
It is a 100% pure Green Tipped Bourbon Arabica , a strain that has remained genetically isolated since its introduction from Yemen in 1733. The Price vs. Reality
Frequently noted for floral and fruity scents, sometimes with a touch of anise or spice.
