Coffee profile

In royal robes

When Altissio walks in, you’ll notice. South American arabicas and a Brazilian robusta give it that full-bodied, bold espresso taste. A Costa Rican arabica adds its soft cereal note. Vertuo Altissio’s a highly-roasted coffee cloaked in creamy royal robes.

Try Altissio with milk – it flows elegantly with the naturally full-bodied taste of this Vertuo coffee.

Origins

South American arabicas with a touch of Brazilian robusta are what give Vertuo Altissio its full-bodied, bold espresso taste. These arabica and robusta coffees give this Vertuo coffee its thick and rich coffee crema. We blended in a Costa Rican arabica to balance out the full body with its soft cereal notes. Together these coffees create a Vertuo coffee that is both intense and creamy.

Roasting
