Quindío Espresso Intenso whole bean coffee 1000 g is Café Quindío Gourmet Espresso Intenso for anyone looking for a bolder Colombian cup with a firm body and low acidity.
This 100% Colombian Arabica is roasted medium-dark to bring out notes of cocoa, roasted hazelnuts and dark chocolate. The flavour is rich and smooth and holds up particularly well with milk.
Espresso Intenso is suited to espresso, automatic machines, moka pots and a stronger black coffee. It is neither sour nor burnt; its intensity comes from a dense body and a chocolate-and-nut finish.
Whole beans are ideal when you want to grind fresh and adjust the grind size for espresso, an automatic machine or a moka pot. The 1 kg pack suits regular use at home, work or a smaller hospitality setting.
If gentler coffees do not feel bold enough, Espresso Intenso brings more body, cocoa and dark chocolate without unpleasant burnt bitterness. Whole beans also preserve more aroma until the moment of preparation.
