Gorgona

109,00 kr

Our Italian-inspired blend combines speciality Arabica beans from Brazil and Nicaragua with a touch of high-quality Robusta. We roast it dark, extending the development time to bring out a deeper, more intense flavour.

"Another staple of Amokka, Gorgona is our long-running Dark Roast. Much inspired by the Italian coffees of old. Creamy, rich and intense at its best. We add a pinch of Robusta to contrast the smoother Arabica coffee for a more intense and fiery finish. 

Roasting dark coffee is all about achieving the right balance and structure in the cup. While roasted flavours are inevitable, our goal is to highlight the natural sweetness without over-charing the beans. For Gorgona, we carefully reach that sweet spot just before the 'Second Crack,' when the beans' internal structure begins to fracture

Gorgona is the perfect choice for a classic espresso experience, whether enjoyed black or with milk."

45% - Structure and Balance

Brazil

Bold and Rich brazilian coffee from Fazenda Progresso makes up the majority of this blend. These brazilian beans lends themselves really well to a dark roast, the structure and balance stand up well and they offer some great dark chocolate notes.

40% - Creamy and Smooth

Nicaragua

Shade grown Caturra, Catuai from the Rainforests of Nicaragua makes up the 2nd largest part. In a darker roast these beans adds sweetness and a much needed smoothness and creaminess. These fairly large and dense beans can tolerate a little bit more heat.

15% - Intense and Strong

Uganda

The final and smallest component of Gorgona is made up by high quality Robusta from Uganda. We firmly believe that these beans have a place in a classic italian blend. Robusta coffee, high on caffeine, adds an intensity to the coffee with its nutty, earthy and caramelly flavours
