At the Buccheri group, we are making a name for ourselves by living up to our promise of slowly roasted beans made from an authentic Italian recipe. The Italians choose slow roasting because it allows the water contained within the raw bean to evaporate slowly, causing the cellulose to burn slowly.
This enables the sugar to slowly caramelise the bean without burning. Ultimately, slow roasted coffee is cooked evenly, ensuring the inner and outer layers of the coffee are uniform.
The antique Italian method of roasting coffee embraces a 'separate roasting' technique. All raw coffee beans have individual organoleptic properties. During the separate roasting process, the beans lose weight, change colour, increase in volume and develop their unique aroma. Therefore it is essential that each origin of bean is roasted at its own specific temperature, to achieve our goal of optimum quality.
Support sustainability through quality & partnership.Coffee beans used to create many of Antico's mix of exquisite blends are grown with an ethos of sustainability. It makes sense if we want generations of Australians to continue enjoying our coffee for years to come. Through partnerships with The Rainforest Alliance and Fairtrade, we can ensure that our coffee is grown in accordance with sustainable models, and that the communities who grow our coffee in various countries around the world are treated fairly.
