About This Emporio Rulli Traditional Coffee Blends 1 lb Bag

Roasted in Marin Since 1992

When Gary Rulli apprenticed in Milan during the early 1980s, he developed a deep appreciation for traditional Italian espresso culture. In 1992, after years studying Italian roasting styles and working alongside Alfred Peet, Gary began roasting coffee right here in Marin.

More than thirty years later, the original blends remain unchanged and are still roasted locally in small batches less than ten minutes from our café in Larkspur.

Our Traditional Blends

L’Isole Coffee Blend — pronounced lee-zol-eh — is a marriage of three Indian estate coffees roasted to a full city roast to bring out the maximum flavor in each bean; smooth, complex, heavy-bodied, and perfect with cream.

Principe Coffee Blend — pronounced prin-chee-peh — is a smooth, velvety blend of Ethiopian Sidamo, Central American coffees, and Estate Java with delicate floral highlights; a wonderfully balanced breakfast coffee.

Vienna Coffee Blend is a medium roast blend of Guatemalan, Papua New Guinea, and Costa Rican coffees creating a rich, complex flavor with light acidity and full body.

French Roast uses the same blend of Guatemalan, Papua New Guinea, and Costa Rican coffees, roasted much darker to peak temperature, caramelizing the beans to create a rich, smoky, and complex flavor profile. For dark roast lovers only.

Italian Roast Espresso Blend combines ten coffees from around the world to create an authentic Italian espresso roasted to a deep chocolate brown for maximum flavor while retaining its characteristic sweet, nutty finish. Full-bodied without bitterness — espresso as it should be.

Available in the café, at GR Chocolate Boutique in SFO, and for online shipping.
