Fortissio Lungo review
Origin: Indian Malabar coast Arabica blended with Latin America Arabica coffee. Intensity: 8 Bitterness: 3 Acidity: 2 Body: 3 Roasting: 4 Order: Buy Fortissio Lungo capsules at Amazon Dark brown foam. Burnt and a bit flowery smell, with a hint of sweetness. Low acidity and just in the aftertaste. Dry and bitter at a first taste. Not very dense, quite a smooth, light cup. Malty and red fruits, somewhat burnt, notes prevail, with a splash of bitterness. More dry at lower temperatures while less bitter.
