Yorkshire-roasted dark blend
Mjólka is built for milk. Dark chocolate, toasted hazelnuts and a treacle-like sweetness that rounds out beautifully in a cappuccino or latte. Rich, smooth, no sharp edges.
The story
Mjólka takes its name from the Old Norse word for milk, and it earns it. Danelaw created this blend specifically to shine in flat whites, cappuccinos and lattes, coffees where lesser beans get lost in the dairy. The dark roast brings a full body and low acidity that stands its ground without turning bitter.
The blend combines washed and natural coffees from Latin America and Africa, slow-roasted every week in Holmfirth. You get dark chocolate up front, toasted hazelnut in the middle, and a bittersweet treacle finish that lingers. Judges at the 2025 Great Taste Awards gave it three stars, a rating reserved for fewer than two percent of entries.
Drink it black and you will find a smooth sweetness that surprises for such a dark roast. Add milk and everything deepens: the chocolate becomes richer, the nuttiness more pronounced. It is the sort of coffee that makes your morning ritual feel properly considered.
How to brew it
01Espresso
Pulls a thick, syrupy shot with good crema. Ideal base for milk drinks.
02Cafetière
Produces a full-bodied cup. Plunge slowly to keep the sediment settled.
03Moka pot
Watch for sputtering and remove from heat when the flow pales.
Shop tip: For milk drinks, pull a slightly shorter shot than usual; the extra concentration balances the milk without tasting weak.

Good questions
Dark chocolate, toasted hazelnuts and a treacle-like sweetness. It is a full-bodied dark roast with low acidity and a smooth, bittersweet finish. No sharp or fruity notes here.
Yes. Black, it reveals a surprising smoothness and subtle sweetness. But it really comes into its own in a flat white or cappuccino, where the chocolate notes deepen.
Using around 18g per double espresso, you will get roughly 13 to 14 drinks. For cafetière at 60g per litre, expect about four large pots.
Mjólka comes as whole beans, so you will need a grinder. Fine for espresso, medium-fine for moka pots, coarse for cafetière or filter.
Keep the beans in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Avoid the fridge as moisture is the enemy. Best used within a few weeks of opening.
