 Espresso

Is a unique preparation method, the coffee is made quickly and under pressure in a special machine. Espresso brewing has the power to extract the spirit of coffee delivering rich consistency, a supreme body, intense aroma, mild acidity and rich aftertaste and a beautiful golden froth on the top called the crema.

It is fundamental to select only the best Arabica beans to produce the pure espresso. They deliver intense aroma and taste, with less caffeine. Arabica beans are the ideal for a perfectly balanced beverage.

The purest espresso experience is to drink it straight, an espresso cup only amounts to a few sips however they when created from high quality natural Arabica beans it is an absolute pleasure.
