“Triestino” Espresso refers to Trieste, Italy – which is the capital city of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region in Northeast Italy. The Port of Trieste is Italy’s and one of Europe’s great coffee ports, supplying more than 40% of Italy’s coffee. Lighter bodied than our more traditional espresso blends with a smooth body and creamy mouthfeel, the rich nut-toned flavors of this blend are accented by lively fruit notes. The flavor profile of the Espresso Triestino is inspired by the style of espresso which is normally consumed in this region. Mr. Espresso’s oak wood roasted coffee is an homage to the classic flavors of Old World Italy, refined and reinterpreted to meet contemporary tastes. Founder, Carlo di Ruocco, introduced this traditional Italian method of coffee roasting to the U.S. in 1978. Today, the Di Ruocco family remains committed to the perfection of this time honored technique.
