    when i bought my moka pot on ebay i got a free bag of espresso coffee it. It was called Café l'Antiqua or something like that. It was beautiful. However someone threw out the bag and i can't remember the exact name and can't find anything similar on the internet.
    Does anyone know this coffee?

    Sounds like coffee from the Antigua region around the central highlands of
    Guatemala. It's a guessing game as for the particular blend you had.
    Have you contacted the seller you bought the moka pot from on ebay
    for details?

    You could try a couple of Guatemalan beans or blends, whilst most likely not
    from the same finca you're bound to find one you'll like.

    Guatemalan coffee is one of my favourites, after Cuban, and I can recommend
    either of these:

    Guatemala San Francisco Tecuamburro from Ristretto
    or Hasbean have a good selection of here
    (Just make sure on Hasbean whether you order green or roasted beans
    as required).

    Well the person i bought it from is Italian and doesn't speak any English (and i don't speak Italian). However i do remember it was certainly an Italian make. It could of even been a very cheap brand but whatever it was really hit the spot with me and having tried some of the more 'upmarket' types such as lavazza gold etc., none have remotely close to this one for me.

    Thanks for those links though i will definitely check this stuff out. The descriptions to go with each one make them sound so appealing...
