Description
A mocha shouldn’t need a squeeze of chocolate syrup to taste like chocolate. Dutch Chocolate is Terbodore’s take on chocolate flavoured coffee beans, with cocoa flavouring worked into the roasted bean, so the chocolate note is there before the milk goes in.
What makes this taste like chocolate, not syrup:
- Chocolate flavouring is added after roasting, directly to the bean, so the cocoa note is part of the coffee itself.
- Decadent cocoa notes carry through hot or with milk, without the cloying sweetness of a flavoured syrup.
- No mocha syrup, no extra spoon of sugar needed, since the chocolate flavour is already brewed into the cup.
- Works in a plunger, filter, or home espresso machine, so the chocolate note isn’t limited to one brew method.
- Whole beans keep the cocoa aroma sealed until the moment of grinding, rather than fading in a pre-ground bag.
- One 250g bag is enough to find out if flavoured coffee suits your routine, without committing to a full kilogram.
- Resealable, recyclable bag keeps the beans fresh between grinds.
- A ready-made treat for a chocolate lover who has never tried flavoured coffee beans.
Dutch Chocolate is Terbodore’s flavoured whole bean coffee, made from 100 percent Arabica beans with chocolate flavouring added after roasting. Rather than stirring in a chocolate syrup, the cocoa flavour is part of the bean itself. Each cup carries decadent cocoa notes and a classic chocolate flavour that reads as coffee first, dessert second. Sold as whole beans, it grinds coarse for a plunger, semi-coarse for filter, or semi-fine for home espresso. Suited to coffee drinkers who want these chocolate flavoured coffee beans for a mocha-style cup without making one, or anyone easing away from sugary flavoured syrups.
A mocha usually means adding chocolate syrup to a plain coffee and hoping the balance works out. Dutch Chocolate skips that step: chocolate flavouring is added to roasted 100% Arabica coffee beans, so the cocoa note is already in the coffee before milk or sugar ever gets added. The result is a cup with decadent cocoa notes and a classic chocolate flavour, closer to a treat than a plain filter coffee, but without a squeeze bottle involved. At home or in a South African office swapping out the instant jar for something better, this is flavoured coffee that still tastes like real coffee underneath the chocolate. Because the flavouring is worked into whole beans rather than a pre-ground blend, that cocoa character stays intact until the beans are actually ground at home. It suits anyone who wants a treat-style coffee without an extra step at the machine, and it’s the bag for anyone in South Africa who orders a mocha out but has never tried these chocolate flavoured coffee beans at home.
Flavour is added here with the same care Terbodore has applied to its dark roasts since 2004. Terbodore Coffee Roasters has been roasting coffee since 2004, growing from a small roastery in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands into one of South Africa’s better-known coffee brands, while staying a family-run business throughout. The Great Dane on every bag is a nod to Sultan, the roastery’s original Great Dane, whose easy-going nature became part of how customers came to know the brand.

Questions customers ask:
Q: Does Dutch Chocolate taste artificial, like a syrup?
A: No, the chocolate flavouring is added to the roasted beans rather than mixed in as a syrup, so the cocoa note comes through as part of the coffee itself. There’s no added sugar in the bean, so it reads as chocolate, not sweetener.
Q: How should I store the beans once the bag is open?
A: Reseal the bag after each use and keep these chocolate coffee beans away from heat and direct sunlight. This keeps the cocoa aroma from fading the way it would in an open tin or a pre-ground bag.
Q: Is this coffee good for making a mocha at home?
A: Yes, the cocoa flavour is already in the bean, so this mocha flavoured coffee works well with steamed milk for a mocha-style drink without needing extra chocolate syrup. It also works black for a straightforward cup with a chocolate finish.
Q: Would this suit someone who finds regular dark roast too bitter?
A: Yes, the chocolate flavouring softens the cup, so it suits drinkers who find a straight dark roast too intense. It’s a good option for anyone who prefers a flavoured coffee over a plain espresso.
Dutch Chocolate is an easy gift for anyone with a sweet tooth who has never tried flavoured coffee beans. Birthdays, Christmas, or a thank-you gift all suit this size. It resolves the real worry with flavoured coffee gifts: this isn’t a novelty bag that tastes artificial, it’s coffee that happens to taste like chocolate. For a friend, colleague, or family member who takes their coffee a little indulgent, this is the bag that gets brewed, not left in the cupboard.
