Colipse Blonde Espresso beans are a light roast specialty coffee blend from Central America and East Africa with honey, citrus, and sweet berry notes. The blend features specialty-grade, high-altitude Arabica beans from Costa Rica, Kenya, and Ethiopia. The combination of washed and dry processed beans creates a smooth, lively cup with a bit of a zing and a touch of sweetness, ideal for home espresso brewing.
The beans are ideal for making blonde espresso shots at home using automatic, super-automatic, and lever espresso machines from Breville, De'Longhi, and Flair. You can replicate popular Starbucks blonde espresso drinks at home by adding oat milk, brown sugar, or sugar-free vanilla to your brewed blonde espresso. This results in a smooth, sweet, and creamy beverage.
Buy Blonde espresso beans from Colipse in whole bean or pre-ground options with coarse, medium, or fine grinds, available in 12 oz, 16 oz, 2 lb, and 5 lb bags. Receive free shipping, quantity discounts, and a satisfaction guarantee.
