Rast Milano Espresso, Arabica Highland - Robusta Blend
Do you like your espresso strong, flavoursome and with character? Then Rast Milano is made for you. This Italian-inspired blend combines high-quality Arabicas from Guatemala, Brazil and Costa Rica with a selected Robusta from Indonesia. Strongly roasted to slightly above second crack - and recognised as outstanding by independent Q-graders.
The Milano impresses with an intense, powerful flavour profile. The nose develops an aroma of roasted hazelnut. The palate is dominated by dark chocolate and spicy notes that linger for a long time. The finish is delicately bitter and distinctive - exactly how an Italian espresso should be. Full-bodied, clearly structured and with plenty of depth.
This blend is perfect for espresso (3/3), ristretto, cappuccino or latte macchiato. The roasted flavours are perfectly accentuated in a portafilter machine or fully automatic machine. Milano is rather too intense for café crème (1/3) and unsuitable for filter coffee (0/3) - it lacks the fine acidic structure. If you love espresso, you will find your favourite with the Milano.
The Rast Milano combines beans from four excellent origins: The Arabicas come from the Fazenda Vista Alegre in Brazil, run by the Shimada family, as well as from the San Jose Buena Vista cooperative in Guatemala and the Coopelibertad cooperative in Costa Rica, among others - all known for their social responsibility and sustainable cultivation methods. The Indonesian Robusta comes from the Took Bandung Coffee Estate on Java and provides that little bit of extra strength and creaminess. The result: an espresso that not only convinces - but inspires.

Fresh Service: This coffee is freshly roasted for you every Monday and shipped two days later.
Some companies take a short break during the public holidays. It is therefore possible that your order will not be dispatched until after the holidays. Thank you for your understanding
We recommend that espresso roasts be used 12 days after the roast date or filter coffees 5 days after the roast date found on the package. Freshly roasted coffee needs this time until it is ready for a constant extraction.
We ask that the order is always sent before 23:59 on Sunday, so that we can ensure a shipment on the following Wednesday.
