DolceVita Ristretto 20% Arabica, intense whole coffee beans for a powerful espresso. This blend doesn't hold back, giving you a strong cup every time.

Overview

DolceVita Ristretto is a blend of 20% Arabica and 80% Robusta whole coffee beans. It's built for those who want a truly intense coffee, especially for a classic Italian espresso or a robust milk-based drink. We've got beans from Africa, Asia, and Central America in here, giving it a deep, lasting flavour that stands up to milk.

Tasting notes

How to brew

For a proper espresso, grind your beans fresh just before you brew. We recommend 18-20 grams of finely ground coffee for a double shot, aiming for a 25-30 second extraction. It also works really well in a Moka pot, giving you a rich, concentrated brew that's hard to beat.
