From the green bean to the cup, under one name.
El Patron is a Dubai coffee house that carries the whole chain — importing green, roasting it, and pouring it across our own rooms. Everything is organised, plainly, by grade.
Every grade has a name. The number tells you why.
Our coffees are sorted by what the cup scores — nothing more decorative than that. Six tiers, from the door of the house to the gold at the top of it.
Choose the cup by its character.
Tell us the taste, and the table will tell you the coffee. Tap a family on the wheel, then narrow it by note.
Families and notes follow the SCA & World Coffee Research Coffee Taster's Flavor Wheel.
One chain, from the importer's floor to the bar.

Casa Del Patron keeps a table for the trade and the curious — public cuppings, barista battles, and collaborations with the houses around us. Cuppings at the roastery are by appointment; write to us and we will set a table.
Green, roasted, or both. Whatever your business pours.
Green traders and roasteries buy single-origin lots straight off the importer's floor. Cafés, restaurants, hotels and offices take coffee roasted to grade, in the quantities that suit them. Trade pricing, a dedicated contact, and a cupping whenever you'd like to taste before you decide.
