Espresso Coffees

One of our heritage blends, first developed in the 1960s, this dark roast pure Arabica espresso coffee blend is perhaps our most versatile coffee. Excellent for all brewing forms, it excels in espresso and filter where its rich, deep flavours shine.

The first blend we created in our new home on the Royal Arsenal - hence the name! A balanced blend of washed processed coffee from El Salvador and Colombia, this espresso is sweet and complex with notes of caramel and pecan, a cherry acidity, liquorice sugary sweetness and a lingering dark chocolate aftertaste.

One of our premium espresso blends, Siena is the coffee of choice for many of London's finest restaurants - and it's easy to see why! Mellow and rounded, but still with bite and an incredibly aromatic edge, it's full on from the first sip to the last.

Our strongest espresso coffee. A heavy liquoring, high-caffeine arabica/robusta blend that produces a long lasting crema and an intense flavour with nut, spice and floral notes. Not for the faint-hearted.

Made with 100% Arabicas from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms, our Caffe Cuidado is by far our most popular blend amongst our commercial customers, accounting for 50% of our entire coffee sales. There's a very good reason for this; Cuidado is balanced, bright tasting and perfectly rounded with delicately spicy and aromatic undertones throughout. It's suitable for all forms of brewing and as it's 100% Rainforest Alliance certified you know that every cup you drink helps farmers and their environment to not only survive, but thrive.

Our premium traditional Italian-style espresso. 100% arabica and 100% delicious, this blend is the number one choice for many of our professional and home baristas alike. Complex and aromatic with a great balance of bitter, sweet and gentle acidity it really is the genuine article.

A very traditional Italian-style espresso, which is very well suited to lattè and cappuccino, where its punch cuts through the milky creaminess. Of course, this richly flavoured blend also lends itself to espresso - take a sip, close your eyes and you’re in a sun-kissed Italian piazza!

This is perhaps our lightest roast, reserved for a very unusual coffee. Our Mocha Djimmah is really fruity, with bold citrus tones overlaid with delicate floral notes. A great all-day coffee for those that like something a bit different.

Latina is certainly one of our stronger coffee blends. A heavy liquoring Arabica/Robusta espresso with a thick, creamy after taste, it's a coffee that doesn't pull its punches - treat with caution!

Our first espresso blend, created in 1954 by our founder Antonio Olmi. Perfectly balanced for espresso, cappuccino and lattè, this full-medium roast is smooth and rich with a long, intense finish.

Made with 100% Arabicas from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms, as the name suggests this is the lighter version of our popular Caffe Cuidado blend. With more citrus notes than the traditional version of the blend it has more of a modern style about it, and as it's 100% Rainforest Alliance certified you know that every cup you drink helps farmers and their environment to not only survive, but thrive.

A versatile and popular espresso coffee blend. The full-medium roasting profile belies its strength and full body which give it real presence in milk-based drinks. Spicy and sweet notes dominate before a very smooth finish.
