A multi-origin blend of Indian Badra coffee, mixed with Honduras and Ethiopian beans. Organic, Fairtrade and 100% aluminium capsules.
Brown foam. Malty aroma is predominant, quite strong. The aroma is alike a typical european café, dark and strong.
Quite bitter at tasting, but also with quite a lot of acidity (from the Ethiopian beans perhaps?). Cocoa notes prevail, not of the dark cocoa kind but something more along the lines of a chocolate with milk.
Mixed with the malt flavour it makes for a strong, intense cup but not overwhelmingly so. Crema is long-lasting. Overall a dark, medium-bodied cup, similar to one coming out of an italian moka pot.
