Roma

The short roasting time of this coffee gives it an incomparable balance between intensity, bitterness and acidity. It reflects the unique character of Rome, which combines tradition and modernity with authenticity and elegance.

This blend starts with a balanced, cereal base of natural arabicas from the Brazilian plateaus, combined with a touch of robusta for a lightly woody note. Arabicas from southeast Mexico provide the outline for this blend’s fine aromatics. This renowned region benefits from a unique terroir: rich volcanic soils exposed to rain and populated by forests that lend shade and coolness to the coffee trees.

Surprisingly light roast for an intense coffee, balancing deep, roasted notes with a hint of acidity that gives this coffee its elegance. The different beans that compose the blend are roasted separately, with the Brazilian portion serving as a deeply roasted base, topped with a lightly roasted Mexican arabica for its delicate aromatics. A fine grind preserves the coffee’s aromatic finesse and keeps Roma powerful yet mild; a true testimonial to Rome’s rich story of contrasts.

From the days of Ancient Rome, a great many cultures passed through this metropolis. Different layers of civilization towering up to the present day when Modern Rome adds its layer of elegance to the rich history of the city. Roma, too, is beautifully complex. There’s a subtle balance between the strength of the roastiness, the depth of the woodsy, cereal notes, and the finesse of the acidity and elegant aromatics.
