VICTORIA CREMA
VICTORIA CREMA
The Origin:
Built for the machine. Arabica sweetness and Robusta intensity make a rich shot with pronounced body and a crema that lasts.
The Lake Victoria crescent is Uganda's Robusta heartland — a humid band of smallholder farms around the largest lake in Africa, where the coffee comes out sweeter and smoother than Robusta has any business being.
Victoria Crema is our espresso blend, and it was designed backwards from the shot. The Arabica gives it sweetness and a clean finish; the Robusta gives it body, caffeine and crema — thick, lasting, the kind that holds a pattern. Dark chocolate and caramel lead, with hazelnut sitting underneath.
It cuts through milk without disappearing into it, and it is good enough straight that you may stop adding any.
