Carmello – Creamy Delight in Every Cup. Discover Carmello – a unique blend created with espresso connoisseurs in mind. This carefully crafted blend of the highest quality beans from Nicaragua and the Sidamo region in Ethiopia creates a harmonious symphony of flavor and aroma. Carmello is a high-quality blend of coffees for espresso machines, created for the HoReCa sector and discerning home users. The blend consists exclusively of premium Arabica beans sourced from certified plantations in Nicaragua and the Sidamo region in Ethiopia – considered the cradle of coffee with the highest sensory potential. Nicaragua – Strictly High Grown (SHG) beans – give the coffee a smooth body and creamy consistency, providing a solid base for the flavor profile. Ethiopia Sidamo – wet-processed (washed) coffee, adds elegant, slightly fruity notes and a distinctive freshness to the blend. Carmello's sensory profile is a harmonious blend of notes of milk chocolate, roasted nuts, and the delicate sweetness of raisins. Balanced acidity and low bitterness make this blend suitable for both espresso and milk-based coffees. Using only carefully selected batches of raw materials, each batch of Carmello meets rigorous quality standards for: moisture (<12%), roast uniformity, and defect control by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Carmello is the choice for those who expect not only excellent flavor, but also a transparent origin and consistent quality in the cup.

Their sensory complexity opens up a world of flavor and aroma that they keep coming back for. We invite them to explore our extensive offerings. Each coffee has its own unique flavor registers related to the place where it is grown. This is called TERROIR—the type of soil, weather, and climate typical of a given area, the annual rainfall, and the altitude at which it is grown. All these factors determine the unique flavor of coffees from different regions. We are able to bring out this flavor thanks to the roasting method we have perfected over many years. Artisanal Bean Roasting: What sets us apart from industrial coffee roasters is primarily the quality of the raw material and the roasting method. We roast our coffee beans at low temperatures in drum ovens, and after roasting, we cool them with ambient air (not water, as in industrial roasters). This allows us to extract the best sensory properties, rich flavor, and unique aroma from the coffee beans. Throughout the entire process, we use a special program that stores our roasting recipes for each coffee. These are roast profiles that our Roaster (the person who roasts the coffee) has perfected over the years. This ensures that every time you reach for our coffee, its taste will be excellent and consistent. Trusted Suppliers of Raw Coffee: Over the years, we have encountered wonderful people in the coffee industry, including both coffee brokers and farmers themselves. We choose to work only with suppliers who prioritize quality. Transparency and honesty are also important to us. That's why we decided to join the Fairtrade organization. Before each delivery, we know exactly where the beans come from, their quality, the harvest they come from, and their sensory profile. We only use the highest quality premium and specialty beans. Every batch of raw material arriving at our roastery is assessed, and the moisture content of the beans is tested. This ensures we deliver excellent quality coffee. User-friendly coffee packaging. All our coffees are packaged in special packaging equipped with a valve for degassing the beans. The bags also feature an easy-opening and resealable zipper, ensuring the coffee stays fresh long after opening. The coffees are roasted on a regular basis. The packaging contains all the information regarding the beans' origin, sensory profile, recommended brewing method, and the roast date of each batch. This will help you make the right choice.
