Medium+ roast:

The medium+ roast is an intermediate between the dark roast and the medium roast from Lugat. A dark roast develops more roundness and body, at the expense of the terroir which becomes more subdued. A medium roast, on the other hand, offers a brighter cup, a pronounced terroir and a slightly tangy freshness.

The goal of this roast is therefore to reveal all the sweetness of the coffee and to find a beautiful balance in the cup. Recommended for espresso, you will enjoy an aromatic and accessible coffee for everyone.

The medium+ roast is a gateway into the world of specialty coffee for espresso lovers eager to discover a terroir.

Julien* likes it for:

The Intenso Blend is a blend that offers an intense and spicy cup.

Its name changes, but its recipe remains the same! The Intenso Blend, formerly known as The Italian Blend, keeps its recipe as well as its result in the cup.

You are going to taste an espresso with a powerful body, a liquorice-like texture and a long finish with woody notes.
