Qualità Oro ("Gold Quality" in Italian) is one of Lavazza's most iconic blends. Launched in the 1950s , this 100% Arabica blend was the first modern Italian Arabica blend designed for espresso—at a time when Italian espresso was predominantly Robusta-based. The professional bar version is called Gold Selection and retains the same 100% Arabica DNA with a bar-calibrated roast. A classic of premium Italian coffee.

A 100% Arabica blend is clearly distinguished from an Arabica-Robusta blend in 3 point:

• Less dense crema — Arabica contains fewer crema-forming oils than Robusta. Fine, golden crema, less persistent.
• Richer aromatic expression — Arabica naturally develops floral, fruity, sweet notes absent from Robusta.
• Brighter acidity — Arabica has a more pronounced natural acidity, often perceived as fresh and sparkling.

Gastronomic positioning — for customers who appreciate refined coffee rather than strong espresso.

Target market : gourmet bars and high-end restaurants

• Gourmet bar / specialty coffee — clientele who appreciate fine Arabica.
• Gourmet restaurant — refined after-dinner coffee, complementing the coffee menu.
• 4-5 star hotel — premium buffet breakfast, after-work lounge.
• High-end office (lawyers, consulting firms) — premium image.

Estimated yield ~428 espressos at standard 7g dose.

Each 1 kg bag is sealed under a protected atmosphere (nitrogen) and equipped with a degassing valve. As long as a bag remains unopened, it will keep until the indicated best before date (18-24 months). Store unopened bags at room temperature (18-22°C), away from light—do not refrigerate. Once a bag is opened, reseal it carefully or transfer the contents to an airtight, opaque container, and ideally consume within 3 to 4 weeks. A 100% Arabica blend is even more susceptible to oxidation than a Robusta blend—check for freshness.

The Gold Selection 3kg pack is currently temporarily out of stock. Restocking is estimated in 2-4 weeks. Available alternatives: Gold Selection 1kg (same blend, smaller size), Gold Selection 6kg (larger size) or Crema e Aroma 3kg (alternative Arabica-Robusta blend).
