WHAT IS A LONG BLACK?

A Long Black is therefore sometimes referred to as a "stretched espresso."But how exactly do you make a Long Black coffee? And which coffee beans should you use for the perfect Long Black coffee?

LONG BLACK COFFEE

A Long Black is similar to an espresso, but it’s made with twice as much water. This makes the brewing process longer and gives the coffee a more intense, often slightly more bitter flavor with more caffeine.Served in a larger cup, it’s the perfect choice for those who want to enjoy a strong coffee for a longer time.

WHICH BEANS ARE THE BEST FOR YOUR LONG BLACK COFFEE?

The foundation for a good Long Black consists of Arabica and Robusta beans with a subtle character.In addition to loose beans, you can also opt for capsules with elegant flavor combinations, specially selected for the perfect Long Black coffee.

WHAT IS A CORTADO?

Have you never heard of a cortado? That’s completely understandable! This coffee variety is not yet very well known in the Netherlands, but in countries like Spain, Portugal, and Cuba, people order it all the time. How is this type of coffee made? And what are the characteristics of this small flavor sensation? On this page, you’ll find answers to all these questions.

CAPPUCCINO: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

This Italian classic can no longer be imagined away from many menus in New Zealand. But what exactly is a cappuccino? Where does the cappuccino come from? And what is the difference compared to, for example, a flat white or a latte macchiato?

WHAT IS A RISTRETTO?

The ristretto is perhaps the most intense way to experience coffee — a small shot bursting with aroma, sweetness, and strength. Although it belongs to the espresso family, it offers a completely unique taste experience: more concentrated, full‑bodied, and less bitter. Due to its shortened extraction, the ristretto captures only the best parts of the coffee bean and delights anyone who loves espresso but wants to enjoy an even deeper, more aromatic coffee.

this could take a while...
