History of occurrence
This German coffee brand was founded in 1895 by entrepreneur Johann Jacobs. It all started with the fact that at the age of 26 he decided to open a shop selling biscuits, chocolate, tea and coffee: this year they began to consider the date the brand was created. In 1913, the brand was officially registered. A large coffee roaster was opened in Bremen by him together with his son in 1934, and delivery by company cars to city shops was also organized.
By the way, the founder of the brand loved this drink very much, and in connection with this the school teacher made fun of this, that if he has such a love for coffee, then maybe he should make money on it. Who would have thought then that these words would soon come true. The company has repeatedly been on the brink of ruin, but the entrepreneur's talent allowed Johann Jacobs to prevent the business from getting burned out. The successful development of the business was also facilitated by the competent strategy of his son Walter.

Innovative solution
Often you want to drink freshly ground coffee, but it is not always necessary to prepare it. In order to feel the fullness of the taste of the drink and at the same time not to experience difficulties in its preparation, they created a look like ground in a soluble form. What does this mean?

According to consumer reviews, its taste is somewhat sour, the precipitate is present, but it is practically not noticeable. Moreover, its price is higher than that of the soluble Jacobs.
Monarch Millicano is a revolutionary novelty that combines all the advantages of a drink in one. Selected coffee beans are subjected to the process of ultrafine grinding, as a result, the grains are twice as small as that of instant coffee.

When brewing reveals the fullness of taste and aroma, which is hidden behind a soluble shell. Each granule contains ultrafine natural ground coffee. Thanks to the advanced production technology, instant coffee retains the attractive aroma and unique taste of properly roasted coffee beans.
At the beginning of the production process, essential oils are extracted from the beans, which are then quickly frozen under vacuum, and the remaining coffee mass is divided into pyramid granules. Finally, the extracted essential oils must be returned to the grains. The instant “Jacobs Monarch” in the segment of freeze-dried coffee confidently occupies the top position.
What is it made of?
As a raw material, a high-quality arabica variety is used, which grows no lower than 600 meters above sea level, as well as robusta. The harvest itself is manual. Different types of coffee are combined so that the drink has a unique, rich aroma at the outlet. Arabica contains essential oils that give the drink a delicate aroma, soft taste with acidity, but robusta brings tart notes, making its taste more expressive and strong. Thus, the two varieties harmoniously complement each other.
