Some coffee is made for a tasting flight. This one is made for the pot you fill every morning. Cafés Mers du Sud artisan-roasts this Italian-style espresso blend to a medium-dark level, the range that gives espresso its weight. The beans are taken to full body and deep colour, then pulled off before they scorch, which is why the cup tastes rich rather than burnt and finishes clean, with no bitterness and no aftertaste. Pull it through a portafilter and it settles under a thick, opaque crema, the layer espresso drinkers look for. Grind it medium and it works just as well in a drip machine or a moka pot on the stove, or pour it straight into the hopper of an automatic bean-to-cup and let the machine do the rest. Because it ships as whole beans, you set the grind to match your equipment and grind only what the next pot needs. Freshness is built into the bag. A one-way valve lets the gases from roasting escape while keeping oxygen out, so the aroma in week six is close to the aroma on day one. The pouch reseals after every use. At 1.134 kg (2.5 lb), it holds about 75 servings at 3 tbsp (15 g) each, sized for a household that brews daily, a shared office counter, or anyone tired of running out mid-week. Nutrition per 3 tbsp (15 g): 5 calories, 0 g fat, 1 g carbohydrate, 1 g protein, 250 mg potassium. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light and strong odours. Reseal the pouch tightly after each use. Contains caffeine. Check the best-before date printed on the bag.

• Bold, Not Bitter: Roasted dark enough to pour full-bodied and deep, then stopped before the beans scorch, so every cup lands rich and smooth with no bitterness and no aftertaste left sitting on your tongue.
• Thick, Even Crema: Built for pressure brewing, the blend finishes under a dense, opaque crema that holds aroma in the cup and gives your latte, macchiato or americano real body instead of a thin, watery top.
• Sealed to Stay Fresh: A one-way valve lets roasting gases out without letting oxygen in, so the beans keep their aroma from first scoop to last. Reseal the zip pouch after each use and store it cool and dark.
• One Bag, Three Brews: Grind fine for a moka pot or portafilter, medium for a drip machine, or pour straight into the hopper of an automatic bean-to-cup. Whole beans let you dial in the grind your gear needs.
• Built for Daily Pots: The 1.134 kg bag holds roughly 75 servings at 3 tbsp each, enough for a household that brews every morning, so you restock a few times a year instead of hunting for beans every other week.
