Robusta

For that extra bite in the morning, Robusta coffee is for you. Robusta coffee beans contain more caffeine and less sugar than arabica beans to give you a more bitter, grain-like flavor with a peanutty aftertaste.

Robusta

Item #: 40755 US List Price: $5.63

Robusta tastes more bitter than arabica. This bitter flavor is in part due to the higher caffeine content. It's also higher in chlorogenic acid (CGA) which has a bitter flavor, it contains around 7-10% CGA, where Arabica has around 5.5-8%. CGA. There is also about half the sugar content in robusta. Overall robusta is described as tasting earthy, harsh, grainy, with hints of burnt wood/rubber, and an aftertaste of peanuts.

Measure:
Robusta coffee beans may have traveled around the world before reaching your favorite coffee shop, supermarket, spa, office, or just your ordinary kitchen. First, they have been harvested from Central America (Brazil), Asia (India, Vietnam, Philippines), or Africa (Angola, Ivory Coast). They are processed for human consumption locally or abroad through batch roasting, freeze drying, sun drying, or the traditional manual drying. Sometimes, they are stored and aged before releasing them to the market.

Store:

The best way to keep ground coffee or whole beans fresh is to store the coffee on a pantry shelf in an opaque airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture.

Espressino

No, it's not a typo; we do mean Espressino. This espresso beverage can be prepared in two different ways. We follow the northern Espressino recipe from Italy - where we use Nutella instead of cocoa powder.

Galao

The Galão is dangerously close to the caffe latte or cafe au lait. Galão is prepared with one-quarter of our Robusta-espresso blend and three-quarters of foamed milk served in a tall glass.

Eiskaffee

Eiskaffee is German for ice cream coffee. Traditional Eiskeaffee is made with a vanilla bean ice cream that nicely accents the coffee flavor. However, we prefer to shake things up with other flavors like Rocky Road or Butter Pecan with our Arabica blend.
