Bányai Cascara

Bányai is a specialty roaster from Szekszárd in southern Hungary, run under the Caffé dal' 1927 name — so there's a bit of old-school coffee heritage in the mix. The range is genuinely interesting: everyday single origins alongside proper rarities, including Cup of Excellence Geisha micro-lots for when you want to splurge, plus a few flavoured options and even a cascara liqueur. It's a smaller, craft-minded operation focused on quality lots rather than volume, sold mostly direct. If you want to explore single origin specialty coffee from a Hungarian roaster that isn't afraid of the high-end stuff, Bányai delivers.
