These beautiful beans glimmer like diamonds. This intense blend was originally created 10 years ago and has been very popular. After the beans are removed from the roaster they are dark and are lightly covered with droplets of natural oils that have slowly made their way to the surface of the bean giving the cup a full body. Rich flavors of caramelized sugars and chocolaty undertones envelop the palate. A slight hint of cedar can be picked up in the lingering bold finish. So, why do Central American and Indonesian beans get the 'Italian roast treatment?' Italy is home to coffee culture, the coffee product itself didn't originate here, but the life surrounding coffee did. The Italians certainly know a thing or two about their coffee!

Our Italian roast is sandwiched somewhere between a caramel espresso roast and a bold French roast. The Italian roast is dark in color and pulls the full-bodied flavor from the Central and Indonesian beans. Our Italian roast blend doesn't aim to cover up anything...we use high altitude, gourmet beans.

We recognize that Italy has set a standard on their roast and we honor the fact that coffee aficionados would not take lightly to having a less than exceptional blend. There is no better time to try Italian Roast Blend, it is the perfect choice for those that enjoy fine dark coffees.

The Neidhammer Select Italian Roast Gourmet Coffee is available in whole beans and 3 different grinds: Drip-Grind, French-Press or Espresso-Grind. Each coffee is freshly roasted just for your order and packed in a 1-pound heat-sealed valve bag that will ensure the freshest coffee.
