The roasting process
The roasting process is one of the fundamental phases in the processing of the beans. In addition to making green coffee edible, it gives the aromatic and organoleptic profile characteristic of each coffee blend. The roasting of the beans, together with the blending of 5 different varieties and types, more than a technical skill, is a true art in which the Cooperative, with the help and teaching of an old Master Roaster, has tried its hand in the period of experimentation managing to develop a good ability to create quality blends and knowing how to manage the roasting phase, to which each type of coffee responds in a physically and chemically different way.
Each packet of coffee in its own way becomes unique in flavor.
This choice has rewarded us, in the sense that over time we have managed to create our own trusted customers who share the meaning of the project and who regularly buy our coffee, finding it ethically sustainable and above all good.
The slowness of the traditional production process (up to 10 times slower than the industrial one) with the slow roasting and natural gasification method is considered the only way to bring out the refinement and aromatic complexity of high quality coffees. The wait, in fact, is worth it. Coffee has a thick and aromatic flavor, it can be enjoyed without adding sugar or sweetener.
