Coffee
The perfect Espresso
An hazel-brown to dark - brown foam – characterised by tawny reflexes – with a very fine texture. An intense scent with notes of flowers, fruits, toasted bread and chocolate. All of these sensations are felt also after swallowing the coffee in the long lasting aroma. Its taste is round, substantial and velvet-like. Sour and bitter tastes are well balanced. There is no, or a barely perceptible, astringent taste.
At Kaffeccinos we provide our customers with a true Italian gourmet coffee using Guatemalan and Nicaraguan beans which form the basis for a Classic Italian espresso in the Milano style. Sweet, rich and rounded. The Grand Italia blend was specifically created for the Savoy Hotel, London and is now available for our customers.
At Kaffeccinos we provide quality Italian coffee for a sophisticated palate served at the correct temperature, rather than the boiling milky buckets of coffee that cost big bucks at our American rivals
