Rio de Janeiro Espresso

Embodying the spirit of this lively and colourful city, World Explorations Rio de Janeiro Espresso reflects the country’s deeply rooted heritage of both growing and drinking coffee. An intense, exotic and velvety espresso crafted exclusively with Brazilian Arabicas. Its unique touch of sandalwood and herbal notes will give you a glimpse into the Brazilian way of life. Drink it like a local: Double your espresso with hot water to taste the typical smooth Carioca coffee.

Origin

This 100% arabica is created using beans from two distinct Brazilian regions: Cerrado - well-known for its quality - and Espirito Santo, which brings in the herbal notes that define this coffee.

Roasting

Espirito Santo beans are roasted separately for an optimal time as to preserve the herbal notes. The beans from the other regions are roasted together in a dark roasting mode and for much longer to enhance body, intensity and bitter notes.​

Tropical Iced Rio

 Iced and exotic, here’s a sweet and zesty ode to the tropical way of life.
Dive into the Brazilian summer life with this iced play on World Explorations Rio de Janeiro Espresso. The double sweetness of brown sugar and syrup gets lifted by the zingy taste of lime and sparkling water that dances through this exotic espresso. Saúde!
