It’s simply a method of preparing coffee. Espresso is a strong, concentrated coffee, brewed by pushing hot water through finely ground coffee beans. To brew the perfect shot of espresso, extraction time is short; the grounds and water are typically in contact for less than thirty seconds.
Flavor can be extracted from the coffee quickly because the water temperature is high, the beans are very finely ground, and pressure is exerted throughout the brewing process. The result of this extraction method is a concentrated, more vivid-tasting drink that many coffee drinkers favor. Espresso’s rich aroma is at the core of all the coffees we make at Caffe Lavoro. We are experts in crafting Espresso Roast with rich flavor and caramel sweetness.

An Americano is an espresso drink made with hot water and espresso, also called a Caffe Americano. The drink can be made with either one or two shots of espresso, and varying ratios of water. Diluting the strong dark espresso roast brings the flavor closer to a drip coffee: which might be where the name originated! The exact origin of the term is murky, but it’s thought to have originated in the 1970’s. “Americano” means American in Italian or Spanish, referring to the coffee’s strength being closer to an American-style drip coffee.

The name latte is a shortened form of the Italian name caffè latte, which means “milk coffee”. Since the 17th century, both coffee and milk have been a part of European meals.
Many coffee drinkers like this drink if they enjoy the flavorful taste of espresso when it is tempered with a generous amount of milk. When steamed, the natural sugars in the milk make this drink sweet and tasty. A latte is made by pulling the perfect shot of espresso and then topping with steamed milk. Then, the barista expertly finishes the pour with textured milk (usually topped with a design such as a rosetta, tulip, or heart). Aromatic Espresso and creamy milk duo is obviously an ideal choice for the people who love to drink hot coffee in winter and cold in summer.
A flat white is an Australian coffee drink made with espresso and steamed milk. It differs from Italian espresso drinks like the cappuccino in that the milk is much less frothy; the flat white instead involves espresso topped with a layer of velvety microfoam. Ideal for showing off a barista's latte art, the top layer of foam is flat and far less foamy than an Italian cappuccino, macchiato, or latte.
Flat White coffee was developed sometime around the 1960s, the flat white became very popular in third-wave American specialty coffee shops due to its velvety texture. The perfect combination of Espresso and velvety milk along with a perfect florette tastes amazing hot or cold.
A traditional Italian cappuccino is a coffee drink that is prepared with shots of espresso and steamed milk. A cappuccino is rich in flavor and texture. If you like some sweetness to your coffee drink without losing the coffee flavor, then you will love a cappuccino.
cappuccino is similar to a latte in that it consists of the same ingredients. Tasty cappuccinos are made by pouring the espresso and then milk, but the technique for frothing milk for a cappuccino is slightly different than for a latte. Baristas integrate more air into the milk, resulting in a light whipped consistency to the cappuccino’s foam. A properly made cappuccino will be significantly lighter in weight than a latte.
Cortado comes from the Spanish word “cortar” which means to cut. This delicious espresso beverage has hot frothed milk which in essence “cuts” the acidity of the espresso.
This creamy drink consists of a 1:1 ratio of frothed milk to a brewed double shot of espresso. Typically, a cortado is served in a small cortado glass with a small layer of froth (as seen in the picture). If you are looking for a great espresso drink that’s a little out of the ordinary, then you should try a cortado.
The birth of the name “macchiato” came from baristas needing to show the difference between an espresso and an espresso with a bit of milk in it. The Italian word macchiato means “stained” or “marked”, hence the espresso macchiato name is translated to “marked coffee”.
This delicious drink is a rich shot (or shots) of espresso marked with a dollop of frothed milk on top. An espresso macchiato is traditionally a 2:1 ratio of espresso to milk, which makes for a stronger espresso taste in the final drink. An espresso macchiato is served in a demitasse cup on a saucer with a spoon. This small beverage gives coffee drinkers a little milk in their espresso to soften the sometimes strong or acidic flavor. It all starts with a Espresso coffee topped with rich frothed chocolate and we sign it off with a cocoa-powder finish.
