Taste Profile
Kimbo Bio is the organic and Fairtrade blend from the Neapolitan brewery founded in 1963 by the Rubino brothers: 90% washed Arabica beans from Nicaragua and Peru, 10% natural Robusta from India, all certified organic and Fairtrade . The medium-light roast —unusual in Naples—preserves floral notes , a clean almond character , and sweet spices ; the small amount of Robusta provides the crema. Intensity 5/10 : the most delicate Kimbo in the catalog.
The 3 kg pack is the intermediate between the single bag and the 6 x 1 kg pack: three independently sealed 1 kg bags, to be opened one after the other to preserve the aromas—a light-roasted Arabica-dominant blend is more sensitive to this than a full-bodied blend. It is ideal for a small office that wants responsible coffee, a light catering establishment (tea room, coffee corner), or a household with high coffee consumption.
Discovery format: Kimbo Bio 1 kg unit. Intensive use: the 6 x 1 kg pack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the 3kg pack rather than the 1kg bag or the 6kg pack?
The 3 kg format is a compromise between:
- 1 kg unit — to discover the blend, ~143 cups.
- 3 × 1 kg (this pack) — small office or high-consumption household, ~428 cups, three sealed bags to be opened one after the other — −3% compared to three individual bags.
- 6 × 1 kg — average office, catering, best price per kilo, for regular consumption.
The 3kg size is a good choice if you consume regularly without it being a large volume.
Are the three sachets identical to the Kimbo Bio 1 kg sold individually?
Yes, exactly : the pack contains three 1kg bags of original Kimbo Organic coffee (EAN 8002200140540), sealed in a protective atmosphere with a degassing valve, same roast, same batch, organic and Fairtrade certified. Nothing is repackaged: you open one bag at a time and the other two remain sealed until their best before date.
How many cups can you get from a Kimbo Bio 3 × 1 kg pack?
Depending on the dosage and method:
- Strong espresso (7g) : ~428 cups per pack.
- Bean-to-cup espresso machine (9-10 g) : ~300 to 330 cups.
- Filter coffee (60 g / L) : ~250 cups of 200 mL.
For a small office with 15-20 cups per day, expect about a month 's supply; for a household with 4 cups per day, several months — then open only one bag at a time.
What do the organic and Fairtrade labels on this pack guarantee?
Organic farming (European regulation): cultivated without pesticides or synthetic fertilizers, with annual independent inspections and traceability from planting to roasting. Fairtrade : beans purchased from cooperatives in Nicaragua, Peru, and India at a guaranteed minimum price, with a premium invested in collective projects. Both labels cover the entire blend, Arabica and Robusta—and therefore each of the three bags in the pack.
How to store the sealed bags and the open bag?
The original sealed bags can be stored until their best before date at room temperature (18-22°C), away from light and humidity. Once opened : reseal the bag, expelling any excess air, or transfer the beans to an airtight, opaque container, and consume within 3 to 4 weeks —a light roast Arabica-dominant blend loses its floral notes more quickly than a full-bodied blend. Never refrigerate.
