Delta Cafés Signature Intense Coffee Beans 500g

The Signature Intense is Delta's premium, full-bodied blend — clearly positioned against other references:

• Deeper roast than a Delta Ritual or Superior (Italian-style dark roast vs classic Portuguese medium roast).
• Enriched Robusta blend for strength and dense crema (single origin Brazil/Colombia are 100% Arabica).
• Premium positioning Signature range — carefully selected origins, reinforced quality control.

The two Signature Delta models offer complementary profiles:

• Signature Intense (this ref.) — full-bodied, dark cocoa, spices, intensely roasted. Intensity 8/10. Target: lovers of strong Italian-style espresso.
• Signature Crema — round, with honey and chocolate notes, very dense crema. Intensity 6/10. Targets those who like body without overly pronounced bitterness.

Less suitable. Signature Intense is optimized for espresso —its dark roast and Robusta proportion make the profile too full-bodied and bitter for filter brewing. The result in French press: a taste dominated by intense roasted notes, with little aromatic finesse.

For gentle methods, opt instead for a single origin 100% Arabica: Delta Colombia 500g (floral/fruity notes) or Delta Brazil 500g (round, sweet cocoa).

Excellent choice — the strength of the Intense blend cuts through heated milk and foams perfectly. A cappuccino or latte made with this blend retains pronounced espresso notes without being overwhelmed by the milk, unlike a mild 100% Arabica blend which completely disappears in a cappuccino. It's the ideal blend for indulgent milk-based drinks.

500g bag with resealable zip closure and degassing valve. Store in a cool, dry place away from light (pantry). Never refrigerate. Once opened, consume within 3 to 4 weeks. Heavily roasted blends (like Signature Intense) are slightly more resistant to oxidation than light 100% Arabica coffees—but still aim for 4 weeks to preserve the aromatic quality.
