Sicilian Blend

Sicilian Blend

A full-bodied and powerful coffee with a distinct character.

In espresso, notes of dark chocolate with a high cocoa percentage emerge, combined with walnut, bay leaf, and a subtle hint of orange. The impression of Bastogne biscuits gives it a spicy, cookie-like accent.

As a cappuccino, the coffee remains robust when combined with milk, featuring clear spicy and nutty notes and a full flavour experience.

In an Americano, the profile shifts to chocolate and nutty biscuit, with a round, firm base.

The bitterness is high and defines its character, while the acidity and sweetness are sufficiently present to provide balance. With a full body and medium complexity, this is a distinct, robust coffee with clear bitter notes and a powerful structure.
