Arancio, Nera, Blu, Oro: which Molo Caffè blend is right for you

· 3 minutes read

At Molo Caffè every blend has a colour. It’s not just about the packaging: the colour tells you straight away what kind of coffee you’ll find in your cup. If this is your first time with us, this guide will help you find yours.

Arabica and Robusta in a nutshell

Almost all espresso blends combine two coffee species. Arabica is more aromatic and delicate, with sweet, floral notes and a light acidity. Robusta brings body, crema and character, and contains more caffeine. The ratio between the two shapes the blend: more Robusta means a stronger, creamier coffee; more Arabica a softer, more fragrant one.

The four blends

Nera – intense and bold

The strongest of the range, with the highest share of Robusta: full body, dense crema and a long finish, with cocoa notes. It’s made for those who want the character of a Neapolitan café in their cup.

Available as pods and 1 kg beans.

Arancio – full-bodied and aromatic

The classic taste of Neapolitan coffee: full-bodied and bold, but with a lively, aromatic profile and a clean sweetness. It’s the everyday blend for those who want a rich coffee without going over the top.

Available as pods and 1 kg beans.

Blu (extrabar) – balanced and creamy

Our most popular blend. Body and creaminess meet in a round, smooth coffee with hazelnut notes: the “just like at the bar” taste that pleases everyone. If you have to pick one blend for the family or the office, pick this one.

Available as pods, as capsules compatible with Nespresso, A Modo Mio, Dolce Gusto and Bialetti, and as 1 kg beans.

Oro – fine and velvety

Our finest blend, with the highest share of Arabica in the range: a delicate, velvety coffee with floral notes and a lingering finish. “Delicate emotions for refined palates”.

Available as pods, as capsules compatible with Nespresso, A Modo Mio and Dolce Gusto, and as 1 kg beans.
