Warm, inviting, and made for good company, Milonga is a medium-dark blend inspired by the lively gathering places that gave birth to Argentine tango culture. In Argentina, a milonga is more than a dance, it's a social event where music, conversation, and connection come together long into the night. Crafted from coffees of Brazil and Guatemala, this blend captures that same spirit of warmth and community.
Rich chocolate and brown sugar notes lead the way, while subtle hints of toasted nuts create a balanced, approachable cup that lingers like the final notes of a favorite song.
Tasting Notes
Milonga was created for slow conversations, shared moments, and unhurried mornings. Brew it as a drip coffee to highlight its balanced sweetness and smooth body, or prepare it in a French press for a richer cup with deeper chocolate and nutty notes.
As an espresso, Milonga produces a velvety shot with notes of cocoa, caramel, and roasted nuts, making it an excellent choice for cappuccinos, cortados, and lattes. Its smooth, low-acid profile is equally enjoyable black, allowing its natural sweetness to shine.
Pair it with pastries, dulce de leche treats, chocolate desserts, or enjoy it alongside friends as the perfect accompaniment to a meaningful conversation.
At Dancing Ox Coffee, we craft specialty coffee that celebrates movement, music, and the joy of slowing down to enjoy a truly great cup. Artistically created by champion ballroom dancers, every coffee is inspired by the elegance, rhythm, and storytelling found on the dance floor. Freshly roasted in North Carolina, our coffees are thoughtfully sourced and roasted to highlight the unique character of every origin and blend.
Dancing Ox Coffee has become known as America's most entertaining coffee because every roast tells a story, every blend is inspired by movement, and every cup invites you to experience coffee in a way that's anything but ordinary. Whether you're searching for specialty coffee, locally roasted coffee, fresh roasted coffee, or an artisan coffee experience, our Milonga blend brings together the rich sweetness of Brazil and the balanced complexity of Guatemala to create a smooth, inviting cup inspired by the connection, passion, and timeless tradition found in the milongas of Argentine tango.

"I have been a customer for several years now and just love the vibe of this company. I had Moonwalk for breakfast this morning and several cups of The Shag yesterday to get me over jet lag from a long flight from Asia. Glad to be back in the States again to have my fave bean! Glad to support small, independent companies like this one. Keep it up y’all."
