What is Grande Crema?
Grande Crema is a premium coffee blend known for its rich, full-bodied flavour with origins from Brazil and Vietnam. It has a distinctive crema, which is the golden, creamy layer that forms on the surface. This blend typically combines high-quality Arabica (40%) and Robusta (60%) beans to create a balanced, robust coffee experience with a medium-dark roast profile.
The Arabica beans contribute a silky smooth, nuanced flavour, while the Robusta beans add depth and a slightly bitter edge. Grande Crema is particularly popular among espresso enthusiasts who appreciate the texture and visual appeal that a good crema adds to their coffee.
In addition to its flavour, Grande Crema coffee beans are often favoured for their versatility. It can be enjoyed as a straight espresso, delivering a concentrated and intense coffee experience, with a 4/5 intensity. Alternatively, it can serve as the base for a variety of coffee drinks like cappuccinos, lattes, and macchiatos. It’s a top choice thanks to the blend’s ability to maintain its rich taste and creamy consistency even when mixed with milk or other ingredients.

Grande Crema FAQs
How to store Grande Crema Coffee Beans
Grande Crema coffee beans should be stored in a cool, dry space. Make sure the dark roast coffee beans are in a sealed airtight container to maintain the aroma and flavour. Coffee beans shouldn’t be stored in direct sunlight or in rooms where the temperature repeatedly fluctuates. Coffee beans don’t go off, but they do lose their flavour and scent over time and become stale.

You can bulk-buy Grande Crema coffee beans in cases of 1kg. You can get 5, 10, 40 or 80 cases depending on which bulk-buy option you choose. Our Grande Crema medium roast coffee beans are also available in smaller bags of 500g.
Can I use Grande Crema for making cold brew?

The main difference is in its unique blend of Arabica and Robusta beans, which provides a rich flavour and the characteristic thick crema. This makes Grande Crema particularly well-suited for espresso, offering a more intense and aromatic coffee experience compared to other blends.
How long does Grande Crema stay fresh after opening?
