- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine all of the coffee spice rub ingredients. Mix thoroughly and SET ASIDE 1 TABLESPOON of the mixture into a small bowl that will be used later in the sauce.
- Place the pork tenderloin on a work surface and trim off any silver skin, and then pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle rub all over the tenderloin, patting it onto the meat with your fingertips. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over the pork and rub it on well. Set aside at room temperature for 10 minutes.

- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast pork until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin reaches 145°F, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, make the sauce.
- For the sauce, heat the skillet used to cook the pork over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon reserved coffee spice rub, ½ cup water, Dijon mustard, honey powder and beef demi-glace. Stir frequently for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens up. To serve, slice tenderloin into rounds and drizzle with the sauce.
