Provence Blend : the Espresso Blend of Maison Essabri

Permanent blend. Espresso 

Crafted for espresso, Provence Blend is the southern soul of the House. A round and indulgent blend featuring chocolate, hazelnut, honey, and caramel, transforming every cup into a moment of sunlit sweetness.

A coffee born for espresso

While Signature Blend is our daily coffee, Provence Blend is our love letter to espresso. Everything in this blend has been designed for the short, intense cup: body, roundness, persistence, and that dense, coating crema that defines great Italian coffees revisited with French flair.

Espresso is an art of concentration. It forgives nothing and reveals everything. That is why we composed Provence Blend around a single objective: delivering a balanced, rich cup without bitterness under pressure.

Aromatic profile: Southern indulgence

Provence Blend unfolds around four notes that interplay like the ingredients of a Provencal pastry.

  • Chocolate and hazelnut, the heart: the base of the blend rests on notes of chocolate and roasted hazelnut, deep and comforting. It is the indulgent backbone of the coffee, enveloping the palate and creating an instant sense of warmth.

  • Honey and caramel, the sweetness: layered above are a honeyed sweetness and caramel notes, providing a sweet harmony and lingering finish. This natural sweetness balances the intensity of the espresso, extending the pleasure long after the last drop.

A permanent blend

Like Signature Blend, Provence Blend is a permanent coffee: you will find it year round, consistently refined. It is a benchmark, a trusted coffee to keep close at hand for the morning ritual or the post lunch espresso.

This consistency comes from rigorous blending work, combining several origins to compose a stable profile, season after season.

In the cup

House recommendation

Reserve it for espresso and milk based drinks such as cappuccino, flat white, or latte, where its rich roundness works wonders. Available in 1kg for daily rituals and professionals.
