Kimbo Crema Intensa is a medium-dark whole-bean Italian coffee blend that produces a rich, full-bodied espresso crowned with a thick, velvety crema.
Blended in the Neapolitan tradition, Kimbo Crema Intensa combines carefully selected Arabica and Robusta beans sourced from South America and Asia to deliver a bold flavor profile and satisfying texture. Packaged as whole beans in a 2.2 lb (1 kg) sealed bag, this roast is designed to preserve aroma and freshness for home espresso, moka, and other brewed styles that benefit from a concentrated, crema-forward cup.
What flavor and aroma can I expect from Kimbo Crema Intensa?
You’ll notice a pronounced, spicy aroma with cinnamon- and pepper-like notes layered over a dense, persistent body. The blend’s medium-dark roast emphasizes roasted sugars and bitters, while the Robusta component lends weight and a slight licorice nuance.
- Spicy top notes reminiscent of cinnamon and pepper
- Full, rich body with lingering palate presence
- Subtle licorice tones from Robusta for depth
- Neapolitan-style roast character and caramelized finish
How does this coffee perform in espresso and home machines?
Kimbo Crema Intensa is tailored for espresso and moka pot preparation, producing a compact, hazel-colored crema with dark veins and grey reflections often called a "tiger's mantle." Its intensity (11 of 13) gives a bold, concentrated extraction that stands up well to milk in lattes and cappuccinos.
- Ideal for espresso and moka extraction—thick crema formation
- Holds flavor when combined with steamed milk (latte, macchiato)
- Works in drip and French press for a richer, concentrated cup
- Intensity 11/13 for a pronounced, robust sip
How should I grind and store these whole beans for best results?
For espresso, grind fine and dose according to your machine; for moka use a medium-fine grind. Store the sealed 2.2 lb bag in a cool, dry place and transfer to an airtight container after opening to preserve aroma and crema-producing oils.
- Grind fine for espresso, medium-fine for moka, coarser for French press
- Use freshly ground beans within two weeks for peak flavor
- Keep in a cool, dark spot—ideally an opaque airtight container
- 2.2 lb bag is great for daily drinkers or shared households
Who is this for? Kimbo Crema Intensa suits espresso lovers who prefer an Italian-style shot with a dense crema and full body, plus anyone who enjoys milk-based drinks that need a coffee bold enough to shine through. It’s also a good option for households or small offices wanting a generous 2.2 lb supply of reliably intense, Neapolitan-roasted whole beans.
