Flavour profile
Delta Platinum is the high-end blend from Delta Cafés. Delta describes it as a blend of Central American Arabica, for aromatic finesse and sweetness, and Asian Robusta, for body and lasting crema. Slow, natural roasting in Campo Maior (Alentejo, Portugal), following the Portuguese tradition: full development of the sugars without burning the beans.
In the cup, an espresso with an intense body and a mild, lingering flavour, dense, hazelnut-coloured crema, and notes of ripe fruit, caramel and chocolate. Noticeable but well-integrated acidity, restrained bitterness — the smooth, elegant cup in the Delta range.
The XL 20 kg pack contains 40 bags of 500 g, the same bag as the individual Delta Platinum 500 g item, each sealed with a degassing valve. A format designed for busy establishments: bistros and brasseries (60–100 espressos/day, lasting 4–6 weeks), restaurants (30–60 espressos/day), hotels rated 3–4 stars (breakfast + lounge), offices with 30–60 staff — saving −21% compared with 40 bags bought separately. Larger size: Platinum 30 kg (60 bags) for high-volume cafés, hotels and restaurants.

Frequently asked questions
How does it differ from the Delta Platinum 30 kg pack?
The same coffee, the same 500 g bag; only the number of bags changes. Your choice depends on how busy your establishment is each week:
- Delta Platinum 20 kg (this item) — 40 bags, ideal for 60–100 espressos/day, lasts 4–6 weeks, a lighter parcel to receive and store.
- Delta Platinum 30 kg — 60 bags, ideal for 100–200 espressos/day, lasts 3–6 weeks.
For very high volumes (> 200 espressos/day), order several 30 kg packs with scheduled deliveries.
What is in the 20 kg pack?
The pack contains 40 bags of 500 g Delta Platinum coffee beans, all identical — the bag sold individually as Delta Platinum 500 g — the same blend, the same roast. Each bag is sealed with a degassing valve. Open one bag at a time to preserve the freshness of the others (first in, first out stock rotation). The bags are packed together in cardboard boxes for shipping; delivery options, times and costs are shown in the basket according to your address.
Is there a smaller size for trying the blend?
Yes, and it is the same bag: the individual Delta Platinum 500 g, the Delta Platinum 1 kg (2 bags of 500 g), then the 5 kg (10 bags) and 10 kg (20 bags) packs. We recommend trying a 500 g bag before committing to a 20 kg pack.
How much do I save compared with buying 40 bags of 500 g separately?
The pack price on this page is compared with the price of 40 bags of Delta Platinum 500 g bought individually — saving −21% at the current price. A single shipment covers several weeks of service, spreading the delivery costs, calculated in your basket based on your address, over a larger quantity. For regular supplies or larger volumes, you can request a quote on our wholesale coffee page.
What type of establishment is it recommended for?
The 20 kg pack is ideal for:
- Bistro / neighbourhood café-bar — 60–100 espressos/day, regular customers.
- Restaurant / brasserie — 30–60 espressos/day (after-meal coffee).
- Hotel rated 3–4 stars — breakfast buffet + daytime lounge service.
- Office with 30–60 staff — professional bean-to-cup machine in the coffee room.
At ~71 espressos per bag, 40 bags last 4 to 6 weeks in a bistro, longer in a restaurant.
Platinum or Gold — how do I choose?
Two Delta blends available in packs:
- Delta Platinum (this blend) — the top-of-the-range blend: Central American Arabica and Asian Robusta, slow roasting, ripe fruit / caramel / chocolate, a smooth, mild cup, intensity 8/10.
- Delta Gold 20 kg — the balanced signature blend, African Robustas and Central American Arabicas, honey / ripe fruit / toasted almonds, versatile (espresso, filter, moka pot), intensity 8/10. Same format, 40 bags of 500 g.
Platinum is the choice for establishments seeking an elegant espresso with a long finish.
