The Java Emporium's Espresso Crema Blend Roast Coffee Beans, Dark Roast

If you love a strong and intense coffee, you might want to try our dark roast espresso crema blend. The coffee is roasted longer and darker than other coffees, resulting in a rich and smoky flavour. Some of the typical flavours of dark roast espresso crema are chocolate, caramel, nuts, and spices. These flavours complement the bitterness and acidity of the coffee, creating a balanced and satisfying cup

The blend is roasted until the natural oils start to emerge from the coffee bean This gives the blend a traditional dark roast 'Italian Espresso' flavour and an excellent crema head. Unlike most roasters, the open flame roasting process hardens the casing of our dark roast coffee beans. This means that the beans are slightly darker than other roasters without getting burnt flavours. This helps to release carbon dioxide and develops the caramel flavours that this blend is so well known for.

This is a blend of coffees from around the world which all work together to create the consistency required for customers who want to be able to guarantee a flavour and taste. It’s currently a blend of coffees from Ethiopia, Brazil and Vietnam but will change slightly in its make up throughout the year to create that consistently good crema.

Open flame roasted for optimum flavour and a darker roast using 100% Arabica Coffee for the perfect crema.

The roast coffee beans come in three sizes: sample(50g), Standard(227g) and Catering (1kg).

How to Use

Best used in an Espresso machine, to get the maximum flavours and crema. Dark roast espresso is perfect for making lattes, cappuccinos, and other milk-based drinks, as it cuts through the sweetness and creaminess of the milk. You can also enjoy it on its own, as a shot or a Lungo, for a pure and powerful coffee experience.
