The Classico Italiano is our Signature Espresso Blend. We carefully source the right East African and South American Coffees to produce an espresso that embodies how a traditional espresso should taste like.Complex floral and berry aromas. Hints of cedar, cherry, and chocolate with walnut undertones. Deep syrupy, medium body and a lingering buttery finish.
I get the Classico Italiano Espresso beans and I’m seriously impressed. The aroma hits you the second you open the bag—deep, rich, and inviting. The beans were clearly roasted recently, and you can tell the quality is top-notch.
Pulled a few shots at home, and the crema was beautiful. Smooth texture, bold flavor, with just the right amount of brightness and chocolatey notes. It’s the kind of espresso that makes you pause and appreciate every sip.
Love supporting local, and this J. Rene nailed it. Highly recommend for anyone who’s serious about good coffee.

Best coffee beans
We moved away from CT and missed our favorite coffee beans. It was such a treat to get them in the mail. We absolutely love J. Rene!!!!

Superb!
These beans work extremely well with my espresso machine. The shots pull like a dream with awesome crema. And these beans go well with lattes that I prefer to make. This medium roast is perfect for milk-based drinks!
