Espresso has thousands of years of culture, invoking a passion for good and beautiful things, for meeting people and for just living. Venice is the home of Cassanova, Othello, Goldoni and Marco Polo, of nobles and travelers. It is no wonder that Venetians employ inventive and ingenius methods for creating their espresso blends.

The Venetians unique style of preparing coffee blends by roasting each type of bean individually and only then creating the blend, has fallen to disuse as a result of its higher costs. Caffe del Doge Ground Espresso uses two varieties of individually lightly roasted beans, a technique in which the flame is turned off during the last four minutes of the roasting process. Those two varities are then combined to create a taste that is remarkably unique. Compare this Venetian style Espresso with blends from other regions and note the smooth difference.

Each tin contains one 8.8 ounce (250 g.) net weight vacuum sealed bag of Caffe del Doge Ground Espresso from Italy for use in all espresso makers.
