You all know how much I love coffee. A piping hot cup of Joe topped with a splash of almond milk and a teaspoon of sugar and I’m set. If I’m getting coffee out, I go for a super dry cappuccino with almond or soy milk. So when Italy’s number one coffee brand, Lavazza, asked me to become one of their Passionistas for the rest of 2015, and share their premium coffee products with you, I couldn’t say no! Over the course of this year, I’ll be putting together delicious recipes, giveaways, and other fun posts featuring Lavazza products.
Lavazza sent me a welcome gift pack that included four bags of their ground coffee:
- Perfetto – Made from 100% carefully selected Arabica beans, Perfetto is bold with lingering caramel notes. It is roasted a bit longer to produce a “perfect” and characteristically Italian dark flavor profile. The ideal choice for those who love the pure pleasure of espresso roasts.
- Gran Aroma – This is a balanced, highly aromatic blend of premium 100% Arabica beans with a floral aroma and citrusy flavor profile. Ideal for the true coffee connoisseur.
- Classico – Classico’s balanced roast time produces its signature intense aroma of dried fruits, along with its rich and full-bodied flavor. Enjoy this blend as part of your everyday coffee ritual.
- Gran Selezione – This flavor comes exclusively from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ coffee farms. It is a premium Arabica blend, sourced from Central and South America, with chocolate undertones and a full-bodied taste. 100% fine Arabica, 100% sustainably grown.
I’m most excited to try the Gran Selezione and Perfetto blends since they are dark roasts. In my opinion, the darker the coffee the better! Darker roasts really pack a punch when I’m trying to wake up in the mornings. Depending on how much time I have, I use either my coffee maker or a French press. Luckily, the Lavazza products are supposed to work well for both.
As I’ve said before, keep an eye out for exciting recipes, giveaways and more! If you’re a coffee lover like myself, you’ll love what I have in store for you in the coming months!
