Caffè Vergnano 1882 Gran Aroma box discount

Caffè Vergnano Gran Aroma is an espresso blend of Arabica and Robusta beans from Kenya, roasted in Italy by Caffè Vergnano 1882. It comes as whole beans in a 1 kg bag.

What it tastes like

Gran Aroma is a bold cup: intense flavour, spicy notes and a thick crema. The Arabica gives it aroma and a smooth edge, while the Robusta adds body and helps build the crema. If you like an espresso with some weight to it, this is the one to try.

Which machines it suits

Gran Aroma works well in a bean-to-cup machine and in a portafilter espresso machine. Because the beans are whole, you grind them just before brewing, which keeps the aroma at its best. Use a fine grind for a portafilter and a slightly coarser setting on a bean-to-cup machine.

The 1 kg bag makes sense for a daily espresso at home, and for an office or small café that gets through a fair amount of coffee each week.

Keeping the beans fresh

Close the bag tightly between uses, or tip the beans into an airtight container and keep it away from light and heat.
