Balzac's Organic Espresso Blend Coffee Benefits

  • Built for espresso — Blended to pull a proper shot rather than adapted from a filter roast.
  • Deep, rich crema — The mark of a blend that suits pressure brewing.
  • Certified organic — Along with the Farmers Blend, one of two organic blends.
  • Fair trade certified — Certified on the same rows.
  • Brown sugar sweetness — With baker's chocolate and macadamia behind it.
  • Two formats — Whole bean or a 300g ground tin.
  • Roasted in Ontario — By a Canadian company with cafés across the province.

How to Use

  1. Grind whole beans just before brewing, or spoon the ground straight from the tin.
  2. Use roughly two tablespoons per cup and water just off the boil.
  3. Reseal the bag or tin and keep it somewhere cool and dark.
  4. Pods drop straight into a single-serve brewer.

Who It's For

  • Espresso machines and moka pots
  • Milk drinks at home
  • Anyone who wants organic espresso

Pairs Well With

Why It Works

➕ What makes a blend suit espresso?
Espresso forces hot water through a tight puck of grounds under pressure. That amplifies everything, so a blend needs sweetness and body rather than delicate high notes.
➕ What is crema and does it matter?
The foam on a shot, formed from carbon dioxide trapped by oils. It is a decent sign the coffee is fresh and the shot well pulled, but it is not the flavour itself.
➕ Can I use it in a drip machine?
Yes. It is a medium roast, so it works perfectly well through filter, it is simply built with espresso in mind.
➕ Why no pod format?
Balzac's does not offer this blend as pods. The Farmers Blend is the organic option in the pod range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Product Information

➕ What formats does it come in?
A 340g bag of whole beans or a 300g ground tin. No pods in this blend.
➕ Is it certified?
Yes, both organic and fair trade certified.
➕ Is it whole bean or ground?
Both, and pods where the blend offers them. Pick the format from the menu.
➕ Where is it roasted?
In Ontario, by Balzac's Coffee Roasters.

Benefits of Ingredients

➕ What does 100% arabica mean?
Only arabica beans, no robusta, which is the harsher and more caffeinated species.
➕ Is the ground tin fine enough for espresso?
It is a standard grind. A machine really wants beans ground fresh and fine.
➕ Is the ground coffee in a tin?
Yes, a 300g tin rather than a bag.

Usage and Storage

➕ How should I store it?
Somewhere cool and dark, sealed. Not the fridge, which introduces moisture and other smells.
➕ How long does it stay fresh?
Best within a few weeks of opening. Whole beans hold their flavour longer than ground.
➕ Are the pods recyclable?
Check the packaging for the current guidance, which varies by municipality.

Grind whole beans just before brewing, or spoon the ground straight from the tin. Use roughly two tablespoons per cup and water just off the boil. Reseal the bag or tin and keep it somewhere cool and dark. Pods drop straight into a single-serve brewer.
