Taste Profile
Delta Superior 1 kg is Delta's versatile mid-range blend — the accessible and balanced benchmark for everyday espresso. A classic Arabica-Robusta blend (~70/30), medium roasted in the Portuguese style , this blend is developed to offer a smooth and indulgent profile that appeals to a wide range of palates without any harshness.
In the cup : a round and enveloping espresso , a dense hazelnut-colored crema , signature notes of milk cocoa, malty notes, and roasted hazelnut . Medium body, integrated acidity, moderate bitterness — the very approachable Delta middle way .
A more accessible alternative to the Signature Intense 500g (which is stronger and premium). Positioned for everyday use at home, in small offices, or modest restaurants — where one seeks a quality Delta blend at an affordable price for regular consumption.
