Atticus: an espresso blend designed for the Greek public
Caffe Lab & Coffees.gr join forces in an exclusive blend.
At Coffees.gr, we embrace the entire world of coffee. We love blending, because we consider it one of the basic elements of espresso culture. At the same time, our thirst for curiosity makes us seek out rare, quality single-varietal coffees, which cover even the most sophisticated tastes.
With these criteria, we select the espresso brands with which we will collaborate – and today, we can celebrate the launch of our first, personal and exclusive espresso blend, designed by us, in collaboration with an espresso blend that we love and with which we work closely.
Caffè Lab & Coffees.gr: Five years of close collaboration that resulted in an exclusive blend
Caffè Lab is a coffee company based in Florence and founded by the people of Mokaflor, perhaps the most historic espresso brand in Tuscany. Using Mokaflor’s know-how and experience, Caffè Lab explores coffee in depth, detecting the best single-varietal coffees and supplying its audience with truly rare delights, such as Indonesian Kopi Luwak coffee, and of course the legendary Jamaica Blue Mountain. At the same time, it runs Social Responsibility projects such as the Women’s Coffee Project, which aims to support female coffee producers in developing countries, while it does not fail to launch its own blends, but also some more experimental, limited proposals, such as coffee beans that have matured in old barrels of rum, gin or cognac.
The close relationship of Coffees.gr began five years ago and is constantly strengthening. Coffees.gr has long been the exclusive representative of Caffè Lab products in Greece, giving the Greek public the opportunity to get to know a truly quality brand and some of the rarest, most exclusive coffee options.
The time has come for this excellent collaboration, which will continue in the coming years, to be celebrated in the best way possible: with an exclusive, limited-edition espresso blend, designed exclusively for the Greek public!
Atticus: an espresso blend designed for the Greek public
To create Atticus (the name is inspired by Attica, with its Mediterranean climate, sunshine, but also the frenetic rhythms of everyday life) we worked closely with the people of Caffè Lab, describing in detail exactly what we wanted: balance, intensity, rich flavor, in a coffee that could provide delightful espresso, long-lasting freddo and delicious cappuccino. The basic flavor palette is chocolate and caramel, flavors that we know the Greek espresso audience prefers.
The Caffè Lab staff processed the information and translated it, through their experience, into tangible suggestions, among which we jointly arrived at the best possible: exquisite Arabica from Brazil and Honduras, combined with spicy, exotic Robusta from India, in an exquisite espresso blend, intense yet aromatic, with a robust body but sweet to drink, full of notes of chocolate, caramel and vanilla, ideal for cappuccino as well as espresso.
It was roasted and blended for us and is released exclusively by Coffees.gr, for a limited number of pieces. The first reactions from our friends can be described as enthusiastic.
2025 will have one flavor: the flavor of Attica, the flavor of fine espresso... the flavor of Atticus!
