Description
Our "Fine Robusta" from India has an intense chocolate aroma and a strong, full-bodied character. This medium-dark roast has a robust body without acidity and produces an especially dense crema. It is an intense coffee and ideal for espresso drinks like latte or cappuccino for the fully automatic machine, portafilter, or your stovetop pot. What makes this strong and creamy espresso special is the use of 100% "fine" Robusta from India. This variety has no acidity, a strong body, and creates a thick crema on the espresso. We believe that our directly traded, high-quality Robusta, with its ideal roast profile, presents this variety in a new light. Robusta beans naturally contain more caffeine than Arabica beans, making this espresso a true pick-me-up. For four years, we have been sourcing our single-origin raw coffee directly from the Mysore plantation in the Indian state of Karnataka. The plantation is owned by the Rao family, who have been cultivating high-quality Robusta coffee and tea here for 80 years. India is the second-largest coffee producer in the world.
