Lucaffè Mamma Lucia was developed especially for use in catering, a qualitatively good coffee with an excellent price-performance ratio. 50% Arabica and 50% Robusta coffees from Central and South America which give it a spicy flavour are used for Lucaffè Mamma Lucia.
Like all Lucaffè brands Espresso Mamma Lucia is roasted the typical Italian way, i.e. slowly and gently in a rotating drum resulting in a harmonious blend of fine and spicy aromas. This slow and gently roasting also makes for extracting to a large degree the bitter components which render it very mild, smooth and gentle on your stomach. What is also typical for all Lucaffè coffees is that they have a slightly sweet and chocolaty aroma with a hint of malt.
Very suitable for coffee machines, very good as original Italian espresso. It just does not have enough richness and volume to serve as basis for Cappuccino and Latte Macchiato. Espresso Mamma Lucia = red bag.
