The Cup: Rich Crema, Heavy Dark Chocolate, Elegant Finish

Roasted in the Italian espresso tradition, our Espresso Organico blend consists of 4 different single origin coffees. One is a Fair Trade Certified organically grown coffee from Central America. We combine this with an organically grown African and 2 diverse organically grown South American beans to create this complex and yes, knock your socks off espresso. The rich, thick, crema is second to none.
