Tanat Coffee Roasters: From Kawa to Paris Coffee Today
If you knew the Paris roaster as Kawa, Tanat is the name to recognise now. The company’s own site presents the change directly: Kawa has become Tanat. That continuity is useful for anyone returning to a familiar coffee or discovering older references to the brand.
A Paris roasting project with continuity
Tanat traces its project to 2016 and describes a focus on roasting, origin and the work of producers. The current name brings a new visual identity to that story. For a buyer, it is helpful to follow the actual coffee and the current product information as the brand evolves.
Its public materials also cover education and recipes. Those are useful companions to a purchase because a roaster profile can explain an approach, while the recipe for your method gives you a concrete place to begin.
Classics and more exploratory lots
Tanat’s range includes a Classics selection directed toward espresso and whole-bean machines, alongside more specialised releases. Blend Kawa remains part of the brand’s vocabulary: Tanat describes it as its signature espresso blend, connecting the current range with the earlier name.
This makes two sensible entry points. Choose an espresso-oriented classic if you want a repeatable daily drink, or read the origin, variety and process of a single lot if you want a particular tasting experience. A rare coffee is worth considering when its description interests you, rather than simply because it occupies the premium end of a range.
Read terroir alongside processing
Tanat places terroir and producer work at the centre of its description. In practice, read those details together with processing and roast style. A location alone cannot tell you what the cup will taste like, and a familiar variety can express itself differently across lots.
When comparing releases, look for the exact producer and processing account. A floral description, a fruit-led fermentation profile and a comforting espresso blend invite different choices. They do not need to share one uniform house flavour to belong to the same roaster.
Find your starting recipe
Tanat publishes recipes for methods including espresso, AeroPress and V60 or Flower Dripper. Use the relevant guide as a starting point, then adjust for your grinder, water and coffee. A recipe is especially useful when changing both roaster and style, because it reduces the number of guesses in the first brew.
Our Tanat collection shows the releases offered through SpecialityCoffee.ca. Check current stock, bag weight, roast date and method before ordering.
