Lavazza Crema e Aroma is a 2.2-pound whole-bean espresso blend that delivers a balanced medium roast with earthy chocolate notes and a persistent crema.
From a legacy that began in 1895, Lavazza crafts this Crema e Aroma blend by combining Arabica and Robusta beans to produce a versatile coffee built for espresso and moka pot preparation, while performing well in drip and French press too. The roast aims for a smooth but lively cup, bringing forward mellow earthiness and a chocolate-tinged aroma that complements milk or stands on its own.
What flavor profile should I expect from Crema e Aroma?
This blend emphasizes balance: gentle earth-forward tones with warm chocolate highlights and a rounded medium roast body. The presence of Robusta adds structure and crema, while Arabica beans contribute sweetness and aroma.
- Mildly earthy base with subtle chocolate notes.
- Medium roast clarity—neither too light nor overly dark.
- Robusta inclusion enhances crema and body.
- Suitable for milk drinks and straight espresso shots.
How should I prepare Lavazza Crema e Aroma for the best results?
The blend is optimized for espresso machines and moka pots but remains adaptable for other brewers. Grind size and dose will change the extraction: finer for espresso, coarser for French press, medium for drip methods.
- Espresso: fine grind, 18–20 seconds extraction for a rich crema.
- Moka pot: medium-fine grind, fill water to the valve for concentrated flavor.
- Drip/French press: medium to coarse grind, adjust steeping or brew time to taste.
- Use freshly ground beans for maximum aroma and crema retention.
How intense is the roast and what does the intensity rating mean?
Crema e Aroma is positioned as a medium roast with a higher intensity characteristic—aimed at delivering pronounced flavor without heavy roasting notes. An 8/10 intensity indicates a bold, well-structured cup with noticeable crema and mouthfeel rather than extreme bitterness.
- Medium roast for clarity of origin and roast-derived flavors.
- Intensity reflects flavor concentration and body, not just roast darkness.
- Designed to perform well under pressure (espresso) and in milk-based beverages.
