Blaser Cafe Ligne d'Azur
Both blends – Côte d‘Azur and St.Tropez – are made up of various speciality coffees that have been combined in an uncustomary style. Consequently, they both exhibit an extremely rich and surprising diversity of aromas. Due to their different roast profiles, Côte d‘Azur is more suitable for the long coffee (café crème) and St.Tropez for the short coffee (espresso). This allows for an uncompromising machine setting when both blends are used in combination.
One of the first cafes in Europe was the Café Procope in Paris, and high French cuisine is now discovering coffee as a part of the perfect menu. Know (and savour) life‘s finer experiences with Ligne d‘Azur, and dream of sunshine and elegant esplanades.
