Very Nutty – Powerful Robusta from India
Roasted walnut, a rich, almost syrupy body, and a thick, long-lasting crema: Very Nutty is our most powerful house coffee – a pure Robusta from South India for those seeking maximum body without any acidity.
We roast it with a focus on body in our Swiss coffee roastery to fully bring out its nutty warmth and crema.
Strength from the Heights of South India
In Karnataka and Kerala, Robusta plants grow under dense canopies at altitudes of 850 to 950 meters. There, they develop their typical strength, voluminous crema, and unmistakable nutty notes.
In the cup, Very Nutty is full-bodied and creamy at the same time – a coffee that conveys strength and richness without losing its balance.
Why Robusta fits so well here
Robusta naturally offers more body, a more stable crema, and very low acidity. This is exactly what makes Very Nutty a dense, nutty base – pure as a strong espresso or as a foundation for milk drinks with depth.

How Very Nutty tastes in the cup
As an espresso, it becomes dense, nutty, and creamy, with a crema that holds. We extract by weight ratio, 1:2 as a starting point – about 18g of coffee to 36g of espresso. In milk, it becomes an earthy-warm, nutty cappuccino with plenty of substance.
There's no right or wrong – the coffee has to taste good to you, that's all that matters. And because the bean, humidity, and you yourself change daily, no two cups are exactly alike.
Who Very Nutty is made for
For everyone who likes it maximally full-bodied, creamy, and nutty – without pronounced acidity. If you love strong espresso and rich milk drinks, you've come to the right place. No prior knowledge is needed; every coffee journey is welcome.
What you need for it
Freshly ground, the crema comes out best. Among the coffee grinders, you'll find affordable and precise options like the Varia VS3, while the Varia VS6 offers more flexibility; for hand grinding, use the Comandante hand grinders.
Because Very Nutty is especially beautiful in milk, a good jug from the Barista Milk Pitchers is worthwhile – compact from Normcore or high-quality from Weber Workshops and Rhino. To get the ratio right, a scale helps: compact from the Normcore Collection, with app and flow display from the Acaia Collection.

From the roastery: Very Nutty is our answer for everyone who wants maximum body without acidity. For espresso, we start at 1:2 and like it brewed a little warmer so that the crema stands dense; in milk, it carries through effortlessly. Together with Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, it forms our body-focused line for the large majority – if you like it fruity and bright, you'll find Wild Peach and Bright Cassis in our coffee beans. This is our recommendation, one of many.
