King Cobra - House Blend
A premium blend of medium-roasted Brazilian and Mexican coffee beans crafted for those who appreciate a robust, well-rounded espresso. With smooth caramel, roasted almond, and a hint of chocolate, this blend strikes the perfect balance of strength and complexity.
A Blend with Depth and Harmony
King Cobra Espresso combines the best of two coffee origins. Brazilian beans bring rich chocolatey tones and a subtle sweetness, while Mexican beans add a vibrant, fruity brightness. Together, they create a balanced, full-bodied espresso with nutty undertones and a buttery caramel finish.
Tailored for Espresso Enthusiasts
This blend is designed to deliver a bold, satisfying shot with layers of flavour. The smooth, nutty profile from Brazil complements the lively fruitiness of Mexico, making every cup an experience worth savouring. It’s equally indulgent in milk-based drinks, where the caramel and almond notes shine.
Versatile for Any Brew Method
While ideal for espresso machines, King Cobra’s adaptability ensures excellent results across brewing methods, from moka pots to AeroPress. Enjoy its dynamic flavour profile whether you’re pulling a shot or crafting a pour-over.

About the farmers:
Brazil
Fazenda Picada is located in the Nova Resende region of Sul de Minas. It is owned and operated by the Madeira family, who have a deep personal and professional connection to the coffee industry. Marcelo Miguel, the owner of Fazenda Picada, was introduced to coffee culture by his father José Alves Madeira, who is also a coffee producer. Marcelo grew up watching his father work on the farm and has since dedicated his own career to coffee production.
Fazenda Picada covers an area of 33 hectares and is one of three farms owned by the Madeira family, along with Sítio Catalão and Sítio Serra Pelada, all located in the Nova Resende region. Marcelo works closely with his father and brother Ronaldo on the farm, participating in all aspects of coffee production from soil nutrition to the harvest period.
The farm has a post-harvest processing facility that includes concrete patios, rotary dryers, and a machine to remove the husks from the coffee beans. The concrete patios are used to process coffee as naturals, while the rotary dryers are used to finalise the drying of some lots.
Mexico
Oaxaca is the fourth coffee-producing state in Mexico, making up about 10% of national production, and standing out for having specialty varieties; small scale indigenous producers of Oaxaca have vastly preserved the traditional typicas and bourbons, which are known for their delicate cup profiles.
Most of the farms in Oaxaca are between 0.5 and 2 hectares each, and are managed by indigenous populations who greatly help preserve the native ecosystems. Oaxaca mainly produces above organic standards: in addition to the absence of agro chemicals, the farms actually boast incredible biodiversity, organic matter, and life in the soils, along with a shaded environment that helps to stabilise the temperature.
The drawback of Oaxaca’s coffee production is its extremely low yields, only 1 to 3 bags per hectare. The main reason for this is the lack of access to credit, and the absence of technical support, which has made it impossible to recover from the rust epidemic of the mid 2010s.
Rather wonderfully, you’re buying directly from our brand partners: a lovely bunch of independent makers who pack and post every order themselves, from their own workshops, with tracking.
Each one sets its own postage, shown before you pay, and looks after any duties in its own way. Order from three brands and three parcels will arrive, which we prefer to think of as a birthday that lasts most of the week.
Within the UK: 2 to 5 business days
From further afield: 7 to 14 days, and frequently rather quicker
Returns go straight back to the brand that sent them, who will be delighted to help. As, frankly, will we.
Fourteen days from delivery to tell us you’ve changed your mind, and fourteen more to get it on its way back. No reason required, and we certainly won’t ask for one.
Do open it and try it on. Handle it as you would in a shop and we won’t quibble. Handle it as you would a rental car and we may deduct something for the difference.
Return postage is yours to pay, because the brand at the other end is a workshop rather than a warehouse. Some brands kindly cover it themselves, and if yours does, you won’t be charged. Whatever you paid us to send it out, we refund either way, and the money goes back the way it came within fourteen days of the parcel reaching the brand, or of you showing us proof of postage, whichever comes first.
A few things are made to stay with you: anything made or personalised to your order, sealed beauty products once the seal is broken, and anything perishable.
If something arrives damaged, faulty or not quite as described, none of the above applies. It costs you nothing, and we’ll sort it.
Simply email mail@brixbailey.com and we’ll guide you through it.
