Vesuvius - Our fire from the bean

Natur Bohne presents: our first dark roast with 50% Canephora content

May we introduce? Vesuvius - our spirited new addition to the Natur Bohne range. Named after the famous volcano in Italy, Vesuvius stands for strength, depth and passion. A composition that not only surprises with its unusually high canephora content of 50%, but also with its dark roast, which combines intense roasted aromas with a fine spiciness.

Why Canephora? Why now?

In a world full of Arabica roasts, we are deliberately setting an example. Canephora (also known as Robusta) has characteristics that are often underestimated in the specialty world - and which we deliberately showcase in Vesuvius:

  • Powerful crema: a real eye-catcher, especially in the portafilter machine.
  • Increased caffeine power: For those who really want to wake up in the morning.
  • Spicy, earthy notes: Ideal for lovers of strong espressos and café cremas.

In combination with high-quality Arabica from organic cultivation, the result is a full-bodied, bittersweet taste experience with notes of dark chocolate, dark caramel and a hint of tobacco.

The roast: dark, but differentiated

Our Vesuvius roast is not scorched earth - on the contrary. We roast longer and more gently to emphasize the canephora character without overtaxing the bean. The result is a strong espresso with depth, but without unpleasant bitterness.

Ideal for:

  • Espresso lovers looking for character
  • Fully automatic machines - whether in the office or at home
  • Milk drinks such as cappuccino & flat white, as Vesuv holds its own against milk

A statement for variety

We are opening a new chapter with Vesuv: We show that sustainable organic coffee doesn't just have to be light, fruity and floral. It can also be dark, powerful and full of character. Without compromising on quality, origin or philosophy.
