L'Americano
Roasted Coffee
L'Americano is a rich, smooth medium-roast blend built to work as both a batch brew and an espresso base. Its versatility makes it a practical choice for cafés and restaurants that want one dependable house coffee across the menu. The blend ships in 340 g and 907 g retail packaging, plus 1 kg and 3 kg bulk formats for sale by the cup or internal use. Roasted in small batches in Montréal, it delivers a full-bodied, low-fuss cup your staff can pull or brew consistently through a busy service.
Tasting Notes
The cup is rich, smooth, and silky, with a full body and a clean, rounded finish. It carries well with milk and holds its character served black, which makes it easy to serve across espresso drinks and brewed coffee alike.
Origin
L'Americano draws on Arabica beans from South America. The blend is built for consistency rather than single-origin specificity, so every delivery cups to a familiar, repeatable standard for your menu.
Roast
This is a Medium roast. It builds body and a smooth, rounded character that suits both espresso extraction and filter brewing.
Brewing
As a general guideline, aim for a 1:16 ratio – roughly 1 gram of coffee to 16 grams of water for a balanced cup – though brew method matters. For drip and filter service, use 8.5 g of coffee per 236.56 ml (8 oz) of water, about 36 g per litre at batch scale. For a double espresso, use 16–20 g to yield about 60 ml.
