Do you feel like strong coffee?

If you're looking for exceptionally strong and refreshing coffee , don't hesitate, you've found it. Of the entire Cafédirect range, this coffee contains the highest proportion of Robusta (40%) and therefore the highest proportion of caffeine (of which Robusta naturally contains more than Arabica).

In the lever espresso machine, this fine blend evokes an incredible aroma and a truly rich foam , through which even a sugar cube will slowly fall.

The coffee cherries for this coffee are hand-picked by farmers in small cooperatives in Nicaragua, Brazil, Peru, Mexico, Tanzania, Uganda and Costa Rica at the exact moment when they are perfectly ripe. COOCAFÉ, Más Café, CESMACH, Huatusco, PRODECOOP, CECOCAFEN, CECOVASA, COCLA, CAC San Juan Del Oro, CAC Bagua Grande, APROCASSI, CAC Frontera de San Ignacio, CAC La Prosperidad de Chirinos, Pangoa, Cepicafe, KCU and KDCU.

Coffee beans are obtained from cherries by washing them in spring water (called " washed "). The entire process of growing, harvesting and processing is done by hand and meets high quality standards so you can enjoy great coffee.

Strong roasting in this case completely suppresses the natural acidity of the Arabica. It is an excellent strong espresso , with notes of tobacco and notes of dark chocolate , which is perfectly suited for the preparation of a true Italian-style Espresso or Ristretto .
