Taste Profile
Kimbo Cremoso is the smooth and versatile in the Kimbo range—perfect for those seeking Neapolitan tradition without excessive bitterness. It features an Arabica-Robusta with a higher proportion of Arabica than the Prestige, and a balanced medium. In the cup: a round body, low bitterness, natural sweetness, and notes of milk chocolate, caramel, and vanilla. Ideal for everyday enjoyment, it is particularly appreciated in cappuccinos and lattes thanks to its smooth texture.

Meanwhile, in the same vein at Cafemalin : Lavazza Crema e Aroma 1 kg (functional cousin mild creamy, intensity 6/10).
Is Cremoso less strong than Prestige or Extra Cream?
Yes. Here is the Kimbo range in increasing intensity:
- Cremoso (this product) — 6/10 — mild, creamy, versatile.
- Extra Cream — 8/10 — dense cream.
- Prestige — 9/10 — iconic full-bodied Neapolitan.
Cremoso is Kimbo's choice to avoid the overly strong side of the Neapolitan tradition.
Is Cremoso suitable for children or people sensitive to caffeine?
No — it's still a classic caffeinated coffee, even if its profile is milder. For a caffeine-free option, see the decaffeinated coffees available at Cafemalin.
How many cups can you make with 1 kg of Cremoso?
Approximately 143 short espressos (7g) or approximately 111 standard cups (9g). Home (4 cups/day): 3-5 weeks. Office (20 cups/day): approximately 1 week.
Is Cremoso suitable for cappuccino and latte?
Yes, very good. Cremoso has a smooth, creamy with notes of milk chocolate and caramel that blend perfectly with heated milk. Its natural roundness avoids the overly bitter taste that a stronger Neapolitan blend (Prestige, Extra Cream) can give to a cappuccino. For a denser crema that holds its shape on frothed milk, however, choose Extra Cream —a blend specifically optimized for milk-based drinks.
Optimal storage?
1 kg bag with zip closure and degassing valve. Store in a cool, dry place, away from light (18-22°C, away from any heat source). Never refrigerate (coffee absorbs moisture and odors). Consume within 3-4 weeks of opening for optimal aroma. Sealed bag: until the best before date (generally 18-24 months from roasting).
