Bought this in person after a tasting, an exceptional coffee. The honey aroma is so lovely and strong! Very unique
This is a marvelous product and I love the flavors in it. It's easy to make (just like regular pour-over coffee) but the spices and hint of sweetness make it a lovely treat to liven up your coffee routine. Give it a try and you won't be disappointed.
All the products at Tico Roasters are great. I chose this one for its low acid and it's one of my favorites for pour-over coffee. Beautiful flavor.
This was such a delightful coffee. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for something medium with a tint of sweetness
I've been long buying this coffee time to time, but I've never had the La Minita as what I first tasted about 20 more years ago. It may be an environmental change? Or mass production?
Unfortunately, the coffee was not grounded coarse like I indicated.
I was not able to really determine the full tast
Tico’s Rialto espresso blend delivers a rich flavor that reminds me of being in a caffè in Italy. It’s full-bodied and smooth enough to drink straight, but it also makes outstanding milk drinks. This is the first time my cappuccino at home has matched the flavor of my favorite caffè in Turin.
If you like a medium roast espresso that delivers a full bodied shot with plenty of bright, juicy flavor, then this is a perfect option!
It’s lovely straight and particularly nice in cold drinks like espresso tonics.
Good but not great. Not as full bodies as the best Swiss Water Decaf out there.
Love the balanced profile on this espresso. I visited Tico randomly on a weekday afternoon and the staff there were kind enough to brew me a latte then show me the blend they used to make it. I knew I had to have it then and there!!
Interestingly, I've had better experience pressing this with a coarser grind: 4-5 on a Baratza Sette. YMMV!
I can't perceive all those flavors in the tasting notes but as just a regular coffee drinker I can attest this is sweet. Almost no acidity or bitterness. I don't yet get or appreciate acidity in coffee anyway so this is perfect.
I was under the impression that washed coffee tends to be more acidic, but this is even sweeter than the el cedral natural.
I tried this coffee based on your recommendation and it delivered the goods. A tad stronger than your typical bean but very well rounded, robust and very flavorful.
Will buy again.
Love your coffees! So glad we switched to you for our home subscription.
Big chocolate taste but not a big coffee taste. I’m new to needing decaf only, and trying to find bold flavor and decaf is hard. I do like that this is water processed, but it doesn’t have any more flavor than a $6 bag at the grocery store.

This coffee is truly something special! It has a honey flavor that is so different than any other coffee I've ever had. I love it! I brewed it pour over style with a splash of cream but black would be good too. You really can't go wrong with this one!
