Γεύση και παράδοση espresso από το μεγαλύτερο νησί της Μεσογείου.

Sicily is a place different from the rest of Italy - an island blessed by nature, with a rich history, its own, distinct culture and gastronomic culture that is among the richest in all of Italy.

Inhabited since ancient times, as evidenced by the multitude of archaeological finds, Sicily has always been a crossroads of civilizations, something that endowed it with different influences that shaped its special character. An apple of discord between Italians, Europeans and Arabs, full of bustling ports and magnificent cities with rich popular culture, Sicily has formed a culinary tradition that differs from mainland Italy, without falling short of taste.

From the rich culinary culture of Sicily, coffee could not escape. Like every corner of Italy, the Sicilians developed their own coffee culture, which although naturally revolves around espresso, has its own distinct characteristics, whether we are talking about roasting techniques or old recipes for mixing different varieties of blends. or for special ways of making different drinks.

The Italian 101Caffe invites us to get to know this Sicilian tradition of espresso, with three "Sicilian" blends, in capsules for Nespresso and Dolce Gusto machines!

Stromboli: a real volcano of taste and aroma in our cup!

Stromboli blend takes its name from the volcano located on the island of the same name in the Tyrrhenian Sea, one of the three active volcanoes in Italy and a place of special natural beauty and unique history. African Robusta dominates, giving the blend intensity, strength and spicy character, while Arabica from Central America ideally complements the aromatic palette. The end result is characterized by notes of toasted bread and nuts, which will excite those who love the strong but aromatic espresso.

Stromboli blend is available in capsules compatible with Nespresso machines, but also in capsules compatible with Dolce Gusto machines.



Sicilia: the Sicilian tradition in espresso, in a blend full of secrets!

The name of the blend leaves no room for misunderstanding, as the blenders and roasters of 101Caffe wanted to close in one blend the entire Sicilian tradition of espresso. It is characterized by a balance in the ratio of Arabica and Robusta, while its roasting employs techniques that have been used on the island for a very, very long time. The cup has complex aromas, but also a pleasant intensity - as if the spirit of Sicily was captured in a few ml of delicious espresso.

Sicilia blend is available in capsules compatible with Nespresso machines, but also in capsules compatible with Dolce Gusto machines.



Nannu: the "grandfather" blend that brings to life old forgotten recipes!

Nannu in the Sicilian idiom means "grandfather" - and 101Caffe blenders named the blend to emphasize the fact that they based it on an old, local Sicilian coffee roaster recipe, trying to "resurrect" the taste they enjoyed in island the Sicilian grandparents. Sweet and fragrant, like an old memory, it is a blend that marries Arabica from various origins with strong Robusta, which gives the final touch of spirits.

Nannu blend is available in capsules compatible with Nespresso machines.

 

If our enchanting Sicily falls away, 101Caffe gives us the opportunity to bring it to our cup, with three magical, Sicilian espresso blends.
