Italian Espresso Blend

Description

Embracing the elegance of Northern Italy’s coffee traditions, this Northern Italian style espresso showcases a very light roast that highlights the subtle intricacies of select low-acidity beans sourced from Latin America and the Indian Ocean. The lighter roasting profile is meticulously chosen to preserve the beans’ inherent flavors, allowing coffee enthusiasts to experience the delicate notes often overshadowed in darker roasts.

The magic of this espresso lies in the use of naturally pulped coffees, a process that enhances the brew’s creamy texture and robust body. By employing methods like the honey or pulp natural process, where the coffee cherries are de-pulped but retain some of their mucilage during drying, the beans develop a natural sweetness that translates into a smooth, sweet finish in the cup. This careful processing ensures each sip is rich and satisfying, with a depth that’s both intriguing and comforting.

This blend comprises 45% shade-grown coffees, reflecting a deep commitment to environmental sustainability. Shade-grown coffee cultivation involves nurturing coffee plants under the protective canopy of native trees, which not only contributes to the health of the ecosystem but also aids in the preservation of rainforests and countless bird species. This harmonious farming practice promotes biodiversity, prevents soil erosion, and maintains natural habitats, allowing wildlife and agriculture to thrive side by side.

By choosing this Northern Italian style espresso, you’re indulging in a delightful coffee experience whether enjoyed as a morning energizer or an afternoon treat, this espresso offers a naturally sweet profile with ample creaminess and body, making it versatile for various brewing methods. Its gentle character pairs beautifully with light pastries or a simple biscotti, enhancing the overall tasting experience without overwhelming the palate.
