Our coffees are slowly roasted to develop a sweet caramel nature in the cup. Because of the high extraction potential of espresso machines, our roasting process is tuned to develop coffee flavors to the fullest--then quickly stopped before the oils can "sweat" on the surface of the bean. Oils forced out by over-roasting are not only lost to your espresso--they will contribute a rancid, burnt flavor to the cup.
Our intense emphasis on research and experimentation has led to the creation of two different espresso blends. To assure freshness, we do not sell varietal coffees.
| Espresso Vita | Espresso Dolce | |
|---|---|---|
| Blended and roasted for the perfect caffe latte. Espresso Vita has been designed to feature a strong note of caramel when combined with milk products. Incredible body makes this blend ideal for drip coffee and plunger pot methods as well. | Our gold cup espresso blend has been created to offer the most complex and balanced flavor possible in an espresso ristretto. Espresso Dolce features a heavy red-gold crema with a sweet floral presence, balanced with a rich note of chocolate, and a complex, sweet aftertaste that lingers on the palate. Espresso Dolce is also available as a green blend for roasting at home or in your shop. |
