Discover four different interpretations of espresso from Johan & Nyström in a single pack. This bundle contains J&N La Bomba 500 g, J&N Fundamental 500 g, J&N Dark Knight 500 g and J&N Bob-O-Link 500 g – four whole coffee beans, all roasted for espresso, but each offering a distinctly different character in the cup.
What these four coffee varieties have in common is their high standard, distinct espresso character and sense of craftsmanship. Here you’ll find body, crema, aroma and depth – but also an exciting range: from La Bomba’s powerful southern Italian style to Fundamental’s modern balance, Dark Knight’s dark intensity and Bob-O-Link’s softer fruitiness with chocolate, caramel and sweet plums.
This pack is perfect for those who want to explore espresso in earnest. Use them in an espresso machine, a fully automatic coffee machine, a moka pot, or as a base for cappuccino and latte. Each bag offers its own experience, but together they provide a wonderful taste of just how varied espresso can be.
La Bomba is the most classically Italian espresso in the pack. Here, the flavour is dark, powerful and intense – a coffee that brings to mind small espresso bars in southern Italy, where the cup is typically thick, short and full of flavour.
The flavour profile is robust and low in acidity, with dark roasted notes, cocoa, earthiness and a powerful espresso character. La Bomba is the coffee for those who want punch in their cup: a full body, rich crema and a robust flavour that holds its own very well even when combined with milk.
This is the obvious choice for espresso, cappuccino and caffè latte when you want a coffee that really makes its mark. La Bomba is dark, intense and uncompromising – yet balanced enough to become an everyday favourite for those who appreciate classic Italian espresso.
Fundamental is the range’s modern all-round espresso. It is full-bodied and balanced, yet with a gentler and more nuanced character than the darkest coffees in the range. Here you’ll find an espresso with mild acidity, crisp sweetness and a round, creamy mouthfeel.
The flavour leans towards nectarine, sweet fruit and nougat, with a pleasant body that makes the coffee easy to enjoy. Fundamental is a coffee that works well both as a pure espresso and in milk-based drinks, whilst allowing its slightly lighter and more elegant nuances to come to the fore.
If La Bomba is the powerful classic, Fundamental is the well-balanced everyday favourite – a coffee with a distinct espresso character, but with a softer, more modern and harmonious profile.
Dark Knight is the darkest and most intense character in the range. It is an organic and Fairtrade-certified espresso with powerful depth, a rounded sweetness and distinct chocolate notes. It has a darker character, but without feeling flat – the flavour is full-bodied, warm and long-lasting.
In the cup, Dark Knight offers dark chocolate, roasted notes, natural sweetness and a creamy aftertaste. It’s perfect for those who enjoy espresso with plenty of body and intensity, but who still want a rounded and pleasant sensation rather than just bitter strength.
Dark Knight works very well as an espresso, but is also a strong choice for cappuccino and latte. The milk rounds off the dark notes and brings out the chocolatey sweetness, whilst the coffee’s intensity remains in the background.
Bob-O-Link stands out from the rest thanks to its distinct single-origin character and its fruitier, smoother complexity. It is an espresso originating in Brazil with a flavour profile that combines chocolate, caramel and sweet plums.
Here you get a coffee that still has the richness and body of an espresso, but with a more aromatic and nuanced sweetness. The chocolate notes provide a sense of security and roundness, the caramel offers a soft sweetness, and the plum character adds a fruity dimension that brings the cup to life.
Bob-O-Link is particularly interesting for those who want an espresso that also works well as a filter coffee. It is full-bodied enough for espresso but elegant enough to reveal more nuances when brewed a little longer.
The beauty of this pack is that the coffee varieties clearly belong together, yet each offers its own distinct character. All four are espresso beans from Johan & Nyström and all offer body, aroma and quality, but they take you in different directions on the flavour landscape.
Together, this makes the perfect espresso pack for those who want to vary their daily coffee, compare different roast profiles or find their favourite among Johan & Nyström’s espresso beans. One day you might choose La Bomba for maximum strength, the next day Fundamental for balance, Dark Knight for dark, chocolatey intensity or Bob-O-Link for a more nuanced and fruity-sweet cup.
Total: 2 kg whole espresso beans.
