Northern Italian Style Espresso – Medium Roast Coffee Blend

If you want espresso with plenty of body but without a burnt-tasting finish, this is a blend worth trying. Thanksgiving Coffee Company's Northern Italian Style Espresso brings together coffees from Central America, South America, and Indonesia for a smooth, complex shot that still has enough presence to show up and vote in a latte or cappuccino.

What does it taste like?

Floral notes meet a heavy body, with currant in the finish and a spicy fragrance. It's a medium roast built for espresso drinkers who want intensity without making dark, toasty flavors the whole story. Those flavor descriptions are tasting notes, not added flavorings.

Drink it straight to explore the floral character and currant finish, or add steamed milk for a latte or cappuccino. The blend is designed to keep its character when milk enters the picture, so the coffee doesn't disappear into the cup.

Designed for espresso and rich crema

Thanksgiving Coffee Company has spent decades developing this blend. It's specially formulated for rich crema, the layer of coffee foam on top of a freshly pulled espresso. Your grind, dose, and extraction still matter, so think of the blend as your starting point rather than a shortcut around dialing in your machine.

The name describes an espresso style, not where the coffee was grown. The coffees in this blend come from Central and South America and Indonesia.

Choose your grind

For an espresso machine, choose Whole Bean if you have an espresso-capable grinder and want to adjust the grind to suit your setup. Choose Espresso if you need the coffee ground for you. Auto Drip, French Press, and Turkish options are also available if you want to explore the blend with a different brewing method.

Start with a 12 oz bag if you're getting to know the coffee. Pull a shot, taste it before adding milk, and make small adjustments from there. Once you've found your favorite way to brew it, the 5 lb bag is an option for keeping your regular coffee stocked.
