ICONICO tasting pack

Iconico tasting pack

2 bags x 1000g beans

There are many espresso coffees. But only the best are truly iconic and stand out from all the rest. With this tasting set, we present two of these icons. They have not only convinced the coffee experts, but are also a personal recommendation from us.

MAXIMUM CLASS Martella

1000g bag of beans

What a wonderful coffee!

It does not taste bitter and only offers a slightly acidic flavour with aromas of bergamot and pumpernickel.

Produced in a small family roasting plant in Rome, in the best tradition of the craft. Giancarlo Martella uses a blend of only the best Arabica and Robusta beans for the composition of Maximum Class. The result is a flavourful, incredibly creamy coffee which presents itself harmoniously and well-rounded.

Percentages of coffee blends used:
90 % Arabica beans, 10 % Robusta

EXCELSO Valentino Caffè

1000g bag of beans

90% Arabica - 10% Robusta

The Valentino Caffè roaster was founded in 1953 in Lecce, Italy. The company is still owned by the family. To this day, they have remained true to the artisanal principles of roasting - the beans are roasted separately, gently and slowly in a rotating drum, and then air-cooled.

You can find this coffee in many small cafés/bars in Puglia - especially in the metropolis of Lecce.

Valentino Caffè's Excelso blend is strong and has a delicious fine brown crema right out of the cup.

The 90% Arabica of the highest quality from Central and South America, combined with the 10% Robusta beans, create a unique richness and harmony. Floral hints of jasmine and hibiscus combine with fig, currant and date.

On the palate, an irresistible and delicate sweetness unfolds with hints of dark chocolate, honey and cocoa. A soft sensation on the tongue and a lingering aftertaste complete the taste experience.

From the very first sip, discover what the true pleasure of southern Italian coffee can be. Roundness, intensity, delicate sweetness and barely perceptible acidity make this blend a true masterpiece. Do not wait to order your share of the best Italian roasting art!

This coffee is particularly recommended for espresso machines (portafilter) and as espresso, espresso macchiato or other milk-based drinks. Valentino Excelso is also very good in automatic machines. The beans are dark, but not oily roasted and can therefore be used in these devices.

With its exceptional taste, superior quality and unprecedented variety, Valentino Caffè has even convinced the European Parliament in Luxembourg and is now its main coffee supplier.
