The Coffee
A little taste of Italy.
Mocha Italia is the name Sergio and Bruno Costa gave to their own special blend of coffee beans 37 years ago. It's a unique blend as it manages to combine the sweetness, bitterness and body needed to make the perfect cup of coffee. As for the blend itself, that's a closely guarded secret, but you can enjoy a cup of its distinctive flavour and a warm Italian welcome at any of our Costa coffee shops.
WORTH WAITING FOR.
There are some things in life that should never be rushed, coffee being one of them. That's why we only ever slow-roast our coffee beans - to bring out a fuller flavour and stronger aroma. It's a traditional process that takes a little longer, but it's well worth the wait.
The Costa Coffee Coffees.
Know your Mocha from your macchiato? Check out the range of Costa coffees and what goes into them:
- ESPRESSO
- A short, strong and black coffee, with no milk.
- ESPRESSO DOPPIO
- A double espresso shot. For those who like it strong.
- RISTRETTO
- An extra short coffee, even shorter than an espresso, with an even stronger flavour.
- MACCHIATO
- Espresso topped with just a dash of milk. Yum.
- AMERICANO
- Coffee, mixing shots of espresso with hot water. Add milk if you like.
- CAPPUCCINO
- Coffee combining espresso with steamed, frothy milk. Chocolate on top if you have a sweet tooth.
- CAFFE LATTE
- Coffee made with steamed milk. Not as strong as a cappuccino, but just as good.
- MOCHA
- Espresso with hot chocolate, topped with steamed, frothed milk.
