Biscuit-cinnamon espresso

Biscuit-cinnamon espresso is espresso coffee with a cinnamon biscuit flavour, made at our roastery in Athens. We first tried it as a freddo espresso, and the glass was empty in two minutes. It tastes like drinking biscuit and cinnamon together.

What does biscuit-cinnamon espresso taste like?

You know you are drinking espresso, and the flavour and aroma are just enough, never covering it. You taste the biscuit first, and then the cinnamon stays with you, sweet and warm. The intensity is mild and the coffee tastes naturally sweet, so many people drink it without sugar.

When we tasted it, it surprised both of us. Sofia put it best.

“It’s like eating Christmas.”

What coffee is inside?

It is our own one-of-a-kind flavoured blend, and only we make it. You will not find it anywhere else, and no one can replicate it. Other roasteries sell flavoured espresso too, but none of them is the same as ours. It has Arabica and Robusta from Brazil, Guatemala, Colombia, Honduras and India, roasted medium to dark. It comes as whole bean or ground for espresso machine or Moka pot, in 250 g and 500 g bags.

Can I make a biscuit-cinnamon freddo espresso?

Yes, and it is our favourite way. Pull a double shot, shake it with ice and pour it over fresh ice. The cinnamon lasts until the last sip, and your midday break gets a festive touch.

What goes well with it?

A cinnamon biscuit next to the glass. We also make our own cinnamon biscuits, and nothing pairs better.

Frequently asked questions

1. Is it instant coffee?

   No. It is real espresso coffee, whole bean or ground for your machine, with a cinnamon biscuit flavour.

2. Does it need sugar?

   It tastes sweet on its own, so we suggest trying it plain first. If you take your freddo sweet, add sugar as usual.

3. Can I make a freddo espresso with it?

   Yes. That is how we tried it first, and it is our favourite way to drink it.

4. Which grind should I choose?

   Espresso machine grind if you do not have a grinder. If you do, take it whole bean and grind just before brewing.

5. Can I buy it from another roastery?

   No. It is our own one-of-a-kind blend and only we make it, so you will only find it at our roastery and on rizopouloscoffee.gr.

6. Is it a good Christmas gift?

   Yes. For anyone with an espresso machine at home it is a festive gift, and with a bag of cinnamon biscuits it becomes even warmer.
