The Milano Taste

The Milano taste was developed from a century of artisanship in the Italian coffee tradition. The miscela, or blend, is at the heart of our taste. We often combine more than ten premium 100% Arabica coffee bean varietals from around the world in search of the perfect balance of body, flavour, sweetness, acidity and aroma.

We’re dedicated to sourcing, hand roasting and blending each of our espressos, containing up to 13 different origin coffees. Milano has garnered international acclamation winning 15 gold medals in the IIAC International Institute of Coffee Tasters. We put the same due diligence and passion into our pourover, drip and French press coffee blends. Our dark, medium, fair trade and decafs deliver flavours found nowhere else in a brewed coffee blend.

Milano is a fervent supporter of small farm estate, fair trade and organically grown coffees. Although we first rate coffee by cup quality, at any given time there is up to 70% organically grown coffee beans in each of our blends.

Milano is proud to offer the only espresso tasting bars in Vancouver, where you can sample up to 8 different espressos at any given time.

Roasters For Wells: Making a difference, one cup at a time.

A partnership with imagine1day and other local Vancouver coffee roasters coming together to raise funds for clean water projects in rural Ethiopia.

With each purchased bag or pour over of the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, we will donate $1 toward our combined goal of $75,000 to acquire a water well drilling rig.

Look out for the Roaster for Wells sticker on coffee bags in cafes near you.

Or, if you’d rather make a direct donation you can do so here.
