The Story

The Espresso Macchiato – "stained espresso" – is the Italian answer to the question of how to make an espresso even more perfect. A dot of milk foam softens the intensity without distorting the espresso's character. In Italian bars, it's the drink for purists who accept a minimal addition of milk. The small spot of foam also serves a practical purpose: it shows the barista which espresso has milk.

The Experience

"The first sip is a dance between intensity and gentleness. The creamy milk meets powerful roast aromas, creating a brief moment of harmony. Then the espresso takes the lead again. A drink for everyone who loves espresso but appreciates a hint of creaminess."
