Tre Forze Espresso, 50 pods

95% Arabica. Slowly roasted over an open olive wood fire.

Trinakria Since ancient times, this sun symbol has stood for Sicily, the fertile island in the Mediterranean where, according to Homer, the sun god Helios grazed his flocks. The winged head of the girl, with three legs running around it, echoes the island's characteristic triangular shape and, like the sun itself, symbolises strength, energy and life. Three forces - Tre Force.

Roasting over an olive wood fire

A forgotten secret of Italian espresso culture lies dormant at the foot of the volcano Mount Etna in Sicily: over 120 years ago, people there roasted their caffè over an open olive wood fire. The slopes of Mount Etna are rich in olive groves, which grow particularly well on the fertile lava soil. The lava soil enriches the wood with minerals, which release spicy flavours when burned. Tre Force has revived this gentle, manual roasting process and optimised this traditional method specifically for roasting Tre Force Caffè. As many generations ago, the cut wood from the olive groves is utilised and no trees are felled.

The perfect blend

Quality and care Tre Force only uses selected premium beans from the best highland locations in the world. The blend is secret. A smaller proportion of high-quality robusta beans refines first-class Arabica beans. In contrast to the standard process, the raw beans are not filtered and sieved twice, but five times and then roasted by hand in small quantities at a low temperature for 20 to 30 minutes. Each type of bean is given exactly the roasting time it requires. And only then are they blended. During this gentle prelude, they release their valuable flavours and oils.

Chocolaty and nutty aromas

Before roasting, the raw beans used smell of a composition of fresh mint, olive wood and green peas. The roasted beans exude a blend of delicately spicy flavours reminiscent of dates, chocolate and nuts. The espresso develops flavours characterised by chocolate and nutty impressions.
