What makes this coffee special

Dark, chocolatey, full-bodied

Dark chocolate, nougat and roasted hazelnut. Full, syrupy body, dense hazelnut-brown crema, very low acidity. An espresso without sharp edges that works on its own and does not disappear in milk.

Canephora, colloquially Robusta, is here part of the blend and not a cost-saving measure. The proportion provides the dense crema, the body and the nutty depth. Southern Italian espresso blends traditionally use 40 to 50 percent Canephora; at one third Ätna is slightly below that. The Canephora comes from Kerala in southern India and grows there from 800 meters under shade trees, processed as washed. This is different from lowland Robusta from commodity supply and the reason why Ätna has depth instead of sharp bitterness. A factual note: Canephora naturally contains more caffeine than Arabica.

Aromas are natural flavor associations from green coffee and roasting. Nothing is added to the coffee.

Legião Fazenda Dutra, Matas de Minas · Canephora from Kerala

A good fit if you …

  • work with the portafilter or the moka pot
  • like dark, strong, low-acidity espresso
  • drink a lot with milk, cappuccino, flat white or latte macchiato
  • want a dense crema and full body

Probably not if you …

  • use an automatic machine. The oily beans stick to the grinder. For that choose Bergkraft
  • prefer bright, fruity specialty coffees. Then choose Hochlandblüte or Hochlandjuwel
  • prepare with a pour-over, AeroPress or French press. The roast is too dark for that
  • want pure Arabica. Then Hornisgrinde is better, it is the same Brazilian bean, only roasted lighter and without Canephora

Legião Fazenda Dutra, Matas de Minas · Canephora from Kerala

Ätna connects two origins. The Brazilian component is single-origin Roter Catuai from Legião Fazenda Dutra in Matas de Minas, a family farm in its third generation. Founded in 1950 by José Dutra Sobrinho on slightly more than one hectare, today over 300 hectares of specialty and organic coffee, run by Ednilson and Walter Dutra. Hand-picked, natural processed, sun-dried on patios.

The Canephora component comes from Kerala in southern India. There Canephora grows from 800 meters altitude under shade trees, a cultivation method common in India that gives the coffee more depth and less bitterness than typical lowland Robustas. It is washed processed.

The combination of Brazilian sweetness and Indian structure produces an espresso with dense crema, full body and the typical southern Italian chocolate note, without acidity peaks.

How to get the most out of it

The same bean tastes different with every preparation. Here are the parameters we use to brew it ourselves.

    Gentle rather than fast

    A roast in which the delicate aromas come to the fore. Large roasteries roast hotter and shorter, which darkens the bean and strips its nuances.

Questions & answers

What customers ask about Ätna

If your question is not listed, write to us. We reply personally, usually on the same business day.

Ask your own question →
Where does the name come from?

Ätna is named after the Sicilian volcano and for us stands for the roasting style, not the origin. The green coffee comes from Brazil and India, roasted in Germany. The profile is Italian: dark roasted, low acidity, with a Canephora share for crema and body.

Why not in an automatic machine?

The dark roast brings oils to the bean surface. In an automatic machine they settle in the bean hopper and the grinder, which leads to gummed-up burrs and, in the worst case, malfunctions. If you use an automatic machine, choose Bergkraft. It is intentionally medium roasted, stays dry and still delivers body and crema.

How fresh is the coffee when it arrives?

We roast in Vöhringen and only fill your bag immediately before shipping. Until then the roast batch is stored sealed in bulk packaging. The roast date is printed on every package. After 10 to 14 days of resting the sweetness and body are just right, after that the coffee remains aromatic for about four months.

Whole bean or ground?

Both. In addition to whole bean we grind on request for portafilter (fine), drip coffee maker, moka pot or French Press (coarse). Freshly ground tastes best, ground coffee loses aroma faster.

What package sizes are available?

250 g and 500 g, most varieties also as 1 kg. The larger the package, the cheaper the price per kilo. We display the price per kilo directly at the size selection.

Is the coffee really organic?

Yes. All our coffees are EU organic certified, Naturgold and Naturharmonie are additionally Demeter certified. The responsible organic control body is shown on each product page in the bean profile, together with the note non-EU agriculture.

Can I get the coffee on a subscription?

Yes. With a subscription you save 10 % compared to a single order. You set delivery frequency and quantity directly at purchase.
