Espresso Toscana

Espresso Toscana is an Arabica and Robusta green coffee blend built for espresso, sold in 20 kg bulk and certified Kosher. The Robusta component, sourced from Asia, brings body, crema, and a caffeine lift, while the South American Arabica adds sweetness and balance. It is a dependable espresso base for cafés and roasters who want a heavy-bodied, low-acid espresso with strong crema for high-volume service.

Cupping Profile

When roasted medium-dark, Espresso Toscana delivers a heavy, creamy body with low acidity and a spicy, full character. The Robusta brings the body, crema, and spice; the Arabica rounds the cup with sweetness. The blend performs as an espresso base and holds up in filter and drip service, where its body and low acidity carry through.

Roast Guidance

A medium-dark roast suits this blend. Medium-dark roasting builds intense body, rounds the acidity, and develops the crema that makes this blend an effective espresso base. Pushed too far into a dark roast, the cup turns heavy and roast-dominated, trading the blend's balance for char. Most roasters will land it at a medium-dark profile tuned for espresso, where the body, crema, and low acidity are the objective. The same roast also serves filter and drip programs that favour a fuller, lower-acid cup.
