Espresso Reimagined — Africa's Bold, Bright Character in Every Shot

African Espresso Coffee by Josefina Brew is a specialty espresso blend that breaks the mold. While most espresso blends rely on Latin American or Asian origins for their dark, chocolatey character, our African Espresso celebrates the bold, bright, fruit-forward complexity that only African-grown coffees can deliver — creating an espresso experience that is genuinely extraordinary.

Why African Espresso is Different

  • Bright, Fruit-Forward Complexity — African coffees bring blackcurrant, cherry, and citrus notes that transform your espresso
  • Bold and Intense — Full body and strong character that holds up beautifully under pressure extraction
  • Rich Crema — Expertly roasted for a thick, golden crema that signals exceptional espresso quality
  • Versatile — Outstanding as a straight shot, Americano, or the base for lattes and cappuccinos
  • Specialty Grade — Only the finest African-grown beans make it into this blend

Tasting Profile

Bold and intense with a full body and rich crema. Expect vibrant fruit notes — blackcurrant, dark cherry, and citrus — layered over a deep, chocolatey base with a long, complex, and deeply satisfying finish. A truly memorable espresso experience.

Brewing Recommendations

Designed specifically for espresso machines. Use a fine grind, 18–20g dose, and extract at 9 bars for 25–30 seconds. Also excellent as a Moka pot or AeroPress brew for a concentrated, espresso-style cup.

Perfect For

Specialty coffee enthusiasts, home baristas, and anyone who wants their espresso to be as bold, complex, and memorable as possible.
