PICO TURQUINO - Arabica  / Robusta Coffee - Intensity 10 - Café Copium ®

The highest peak in the Sierra Maestra mountain range, with an elevation of 6,476 ft, is the highest point in Cuba, in the Santiago de Cuba Province. Limited coffee production exists today but many plantations lay derelict. This sweet Arabica & Robusta blend is perfectly smooth, has low acidity, is creamy, full bodied with bitter undertones. A South Florida local’s favorite and staff picked for iced coffee.

INTENSITY LEVEL

Much misconception and misunderstanding arise when Intensity levels are discussed or described.
Simplistically, Intensity Levels refer to the richness and intensity of the aroma of the coffee when brewed or expressed and not to the caffeine levels.
Much like wine and chocolate the characteristics begin at planting. The soil, weather conditions and terrain have a lot of influence on the final intensity.
Harvest, storage, roast and overall production are as influential in the finished product we consume.

Here at Cafe Copium, we strive on perfection. Both brands, Cafés De Cuba & Cocaina Cubana, all have a unique profile and are on the strong intensity levels of 9 to 12.
The aromas are rich. Tasting notes are bold, smooth, low acidity and full bodied. Some have hints of bitterness creating a coffee experience with power and punch.

All are great as espresso but even better with any regular or plant based milk to create the perfect cup.
