FOR EXTRA INTENSE
RECIPES WITH MILK
Are you craving a punchy shot of robust coffee with just a little touch of sweetness? That’s Spanish coffee. Spain’s expert baristas inspired us to create BARISTA CREATIONS Corto. We carefully studied the interaction of coffee and milk to ensure we understood how best to create this intense syrupy cup for those bold milk recipes. Take a sip of BARISTA CREATIONS Corto with a dash of milk, and let this powerful, dark roasted blend of African arabicas and robusta carry you away with its intense notes of roasted coffee and peppery spice. You’ll love the silky texture and lingering aftertaste in this traditional cortado recipe: 40 ml (espresso cup size) of coffee, 10-20 ml of hot milk and 2 spoons of milk froth on top.
To create this intense, rich cup that hits a great harmony with milk, we tested plenty of different coffees from various countries of origin and we discovered that not all coffees interact well with milk. We selected a fine Ugandan Robusta to form the base of the blend. It brings the intensity, thick body and syrupy texture you expect to find in a cortado recipe. We blend in the finest African Arabicas to complete this powerful profile. The diversity of the coffees in the blend gives it a real depth of character when you add a little touch of milk.
