Origin:
The Midnight Crema Signature Organic Espresso Blend is crafted from high-quality, organically grown beans from Central America and Southeast Asia. These regions are renowned for their rich, volcanic soil and ideal climate for coffee cultivation, which enhances the beans’ natural sweetness and complexity. Central America brings a balanced sweetness and smooth character to this blend, while Southeast Asia adds a robust, nutty flavor and full body. Both origins adhere to sustainable farming practices, ensuring an ethically sourced and environmentally friendly coffee that maintains the integrity of its distinct regions. Together, these origins contribute to a classic espresso profile suited for coffee aficionados who seek an elevated yet approachable flavor experience .
Certifications:
This blend is certified Organic and Fair Trade, reflecting Spectra Coffee’s commitment to sustainable and ethical sourcing. The certifications support farmers and communities, ensuring fair compensation and promoting eco-friendly cultivation practices that protect biodiversity in coffee-growing regions.
Processing Method:
The Midnight Crema Signature Organic Espresso Blend is crafted through a mix of washed and natural processing methods, with a touch of Robusta for a traditional Italian crema. The washed beans are fermented and sun-dried, offering a clear flavor, while the natural-processed beans, dried with their fruit intact, add deeper sweetness. A small portion of Robusta enhances the crema and body, creating a balanced, rich cup with low acidity—a hallmark of Italian espresso .
Flavor Profile:
Expect a smooth, full-bodied cup with a rich crema. The Midnight Crema Signature Organic Espresso Blend features notes of caramel and nutty flavors like almond and peanut, with a subtle berry undertone. Low acidity makes this blend especially smooth and approachable, with a satisfying, lingering finish. This flavor profile appeals to those who enjoy an espresso with complexity and a gentle sweetness that balances its bold character—a perfect choice for both traditional and modern espresso lovers .
Brewing Recommendations:
This blend shines when brewed as an espresso, bringing out its rich, creamy body and caramel notes. Use a high-quality espresso machine or Moka pot to best experience the blend’s depth and complexity. For an enhanced crema, ensure your water temperature is between 195–205°F, with freshly ground beans for optimal extraction. This coffee also complements milk-based drinks like cappuccinos and lattes, which highlight its nutty sweetness .
