Danesi Special Ground Coffee in Tin Can

TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

Made with a beautiful blend of green coffee beans from Latin America, Southern India, and Ethiopia, the Danesi Special is roasted to achieve a well-balanced acidity and bitterness. The light-medium roast is then expertly and meticulously ground to give you an aromatic coffee with a floral bouquet, and gentle flavor notes of fruit, caramel, and cocoa.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

Berries like strawberries and raspberries bring out the full body and flavor of the Danesi Special Ground Coffee. You can also have it with fruit tarts, banana bread, and chocolate cakes. Donuts and croissants are classic coffee food for a reason, and you definitely can’t go wrong enjoying them with a cup of Danesi Special.

THE DANESI DEDICATION

Alfredo Danesi, expert and curator of secret coffee blends, founded Danesi Caffe in 1905. He led the spread of Roman coffee culture, and what is presently known as traditional Roman espresso. When his son, Giovanni, took over the company, revenue increased, sales expanded, and the international export of Danesi Coffee began.

It was in 1990, under the management of Giovanni’s sons—Alfredo and Roberto, that the process of modernization commenced, still with keeping in line with traditional preparations that set Danesi apart.

Today, it is a fully female-run company, headed by Roberto’s four daughters. The fourth generation of Danesi continues the successful development of the company—keeping up with technological advancements, modern trends and challenges, and training Danesi staff with up-to-date processes, but always honoring the time-old traditions and quality that their forebears passed down.

Storage Instructions

Store your coffee in an opaque, odor-free, airtight container in a dry, dark place at a cool room temperature. It’s best to consume coffee grounds within two weeks. Freshly roasted whole beans retain their freshness for up to one month.
