Description
This is a full continental roast made from pure Peru, a fine central American arabica. This roast also serves as the stronger component of Espresso 2 Blend. With nothing blended into it this coffee has a strong clear taste, particularly tasty as it cools down and displays many of the flavors characteristics of medium roast Peru
This single origin coffee makes a strong espresso but many will find it too strong as an espresso but perfect for a latte or other milky coffee. This is because the milk absorbs and moderates the strong almost burnt tones. So mild espresso fans will prefer a lighter roast, perhaps even as light as one of our medium mild arabicas while latte drinkers will be delighted to get a full flavored drink hard to buy on the mass market.

Our coffee beans are roasted by eye by our experienced roaster with no computer controlled temperature profiles to make the decisions. This is just one aspect of the care we use to maintain the fine flavor our customers expect.
Did you know our ordering system allows you to create your own blends? Order each component of the blend separately and than tell us what do do in the special information box. We can then blend it and if required grind it, saving you a potentially messy kitchen worktop
Blending tip: when deciding on a mixed roast blend it usually works better to have more of the milder roast, less of the stronger.
Blending tip: even the strongest roast can be mixed with a normal tasting blend – so long as you use very little. Start by trying one part in four.
