COFFEE.

In our endeavour to bring our coffee as near to perfection as possible, we have lately added to our machinery a special cooling fan.

This fan by drawing coal air through the coffee immediately after roasting, has the virtue of sealing the pores of the berry and so retaining the essential oils which are the source of the delightful flavour and aroma.

We specially recommend our blend of Mocha, South American and Nairobi berries at 85 cts. per 1 lb. tin, whilst our Rare Old Mocha at $1 00 per lb is famous throughout South China.
