Landras blend was a type of coffee served by Neelix aboard the USS Voyager that was favored by Lieutenant B'Elanna Torres.

In 2372, Torres drank two pots of this blend of coffee while investigating the mystery of a Pralor Automated Personnel Unit discovered floating in space, this while sitting up all night reviewing ideas on how to repair it. After seeing her finish off the second pot, Neelix offer to make her a Jibalian seven-spice omelette with a glass of Traggle nectar. When she insisted on a third pot, Neelix apologized and told her "two pots of Landras blend is the absolute limit." Incredulously to being cut off, Torres replied and acknowledged, "Oh, I guess you're right. It was starting to taste… almost palatable."

Following her rescue from being held hostage aboard a Pralor vessel, she recovered in the mess hall, where Kes delivered her a pot of Landras blend, "compliments of the chef." After enjoying a taste of the beverage, Torres confessed that "I never thought Neelix's coffee could taste so good." (VOY: "Prototype")

According to thirteenth revision of the final draft of the script, this was named "Proteinaceous Blend".
According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia (4th ed., vol. 1, p. 453), the Landras blend was native to the Delta Quadrant.
