THE ART OF ESPRESSO
QUALITY IN EVERY CUP
THE RIGHT ROAST

What is ESPRESSO:

Espresso, Italian for “express”, is technically a cup of coffee made using 1.35 ounces (40 cm³) of coffee, prepared using a specially-developed quick method
so it can be made fresh every time using exclusively water and finely ground roast coffee.

For most coffee aficionados, espresso is associated with superb quality coffee and the enjoyment of this wonderful drink.

Originally developed in Italy, the espresso method is the most common method of coffee preparation in many coffee houses in Vienna and is widely popular throughout the world.

Estimates suggest that 25 billion cups of espresso are consumed each year worldwide. Espresso enjoys so much popularity among coffee drinkers because, unlike drip-brew coffee, it must be made and served fresh.

The espresso experience is highly focused on the moment – espresso is enjoyed in porcelain in the café and, to the satisfaction of connoisseurs, the taste lingers on after the last sip, just like fond memories.
