Tell me more about the Dreispitz Espresso

Our Dreispitz Espresso blend is perfect for anyone who enjoys a classic, balanced espresso but wants to look beyond the Italian horizon. An espresso classic with a modern twist. Whether it comes from a portafilter machine or a fully automatic coffee maker – the Dreispitz is always a great fit. Short, bold, uncomplicated, Dreispitz. We began roasting in the Dreispitz district on the outskirts of Basel in 2016. Our espresso blend is dedicated to this bustling, creative area.

Why does the Dreispitz Espresso taste the way it does?

The Dreispitz is a blend of – who would have guessed – three equal parts: one third each from Brazil, Nicaragua, and Guinea, alternating with India. The Arabica varietal Mondo Novo from Brazil provides the base for the espresso. The coffee tastes of hazelnut and milk chocolate and creates a creamy texture. The coffee from Nicaragua from the Las Nubes and El Recuerdo farms – neighboring farms and our neighbors in Nicaragua – adds some complexity to the blend. With sweet and tart notes, it balances the blend. The honey-processed Robusta from Macenta Beans in Guinea then provides the classic espresso effect. The Robusta gives the blend weight and a bold aftertaste. Depending on the season, we use the washed Robusta from Plantrich in India as the Robusta component.
