Inspired by the ambassador of all Italian coffees, we chose not to imitate but to roast our own version. The ristretto is the essence of Italy’s iconic coffee culture. It’s not reflective of any one city – it’s Italy. It’s the fashion, the art, the cuisine – it’s the consistent elegance and excellence of Italy as a whole. Inspired by this ambassador of all Italian coffees, we chose not to imitate but to roast our own version. Ispirazione Ristretto Italiano is a blend of diverse Arabica and Robustas – a contrasting bouquet from around the world – together they recreate the iconic Italian taste. Ispirazione Ristretto Italiano is a medium-dark roast. In one short, sharp sip, this blend reveals all its intensity and complexity of aromas. It’s a roasty and intense coffee accented by fruity notes and a hint of acidity dancing through. It’s a profile worthy of an ambassador – a coffee that explains Italians’ passion for coffee and makes sense of why it’s ingrained in daily life.

Ispirazione Palermo Kazaar is inspired by this city’s multicultural character. Sicily once lay on the path of the ancient coffee trade and this crossroads of African and Arabic influence shaped their dark and Robusta-heavy cup profile. Ispirazione Palermo Kazaar captures the African and Arabian dark coffee influences and creates an intensely dark roast from the south that highlights the wild and spicy character of this blend. This coffee will delight you with its exceptional intensity, its audacious bitterness, and those peppery notes leaping out through the thick, syrupy body. The daring intensity of Ispirazione Palermo Kazaar comes from its two unwashed Robustas – a classic way to get a strong cup. A washed Robusta adds a creamy texture. Rounded off with a touch of Latin American Arabica, Ispirazione Palermo Kazaar is split roasted so each coffee’s characteristics can shine through. The Robustas bring audacious bitterness, body, and peppery notes. The Arabica lends sweetness to the blend.

Ispirazione Firenze Arpeggio is inspired by Florence, an intellectual hub drawing influences from all the country. This city was not only shaped by its geographical position at the center of the country, but also by its being an intangible center. Florence is the home of the Renaissance – a beating literary, political and artistic heart. From this epicenter, influence flowed, and to it, influencers came. This intellectual city took the best of everything , and Ispirazione Firenze Arpeggio’s roasting style brings these influences together by combining fruity notes traditionally found in the North of Italy with cocoa notes from the South. Ispirazione Firenze Arpeggio is a blend of short and dark roasted Latin American Arabicas that celebrates the inspiration we got from artisans who drew their influences from all across the country. It harmoniously combines the lighter aromatic profiles from the north with the more intense notes from the South. It results in a blend beautifully balanced between bitter and sweet, that delivers a dense, creamy taste with bold roasty and cocoa notes.

Ispirazione Napoli is inspired by the intense dark coffee seen in this city . A coffee in Naples is more than just a coffee, it’s a deep-rooted ritual held by the locals. It’s home to the Neapolitan flip coffee pot that turned aristocratic coffee into everyman’s daily habit. It’s home to the suspended coffee tradition of buying two coffees but drinking one and leaving the receipt for the second to be claimed later by someone less well-off. City of grit and beauty, it’s home to short, dark, strong and creamy coffee. We crafted Ispirazione Napoli to honor the city’s rich coffee tradition and the popular bond it creates. It takes real skill to roast to the intense degree they do in Naples. The boldness of Ispirazione Napoli ‘s roast endeavors to pay tribute to the expertise of the local roasters from Italy’s coffee capital. We created Ispirazione Napoli to be our darkest and most intense roast to reflect this traditional Neapolitan coffee. We carefully selected beans that could stand up to this degree of roasting. Ispirazione Napoli delivers an extremely thick body, a creamy mouthfeel, and a delicious bitter note that lingers in its aftertaste.
