Coffee culture
Espresso and frothed milk, no matter whether in a cappuccino or latte, allows the coffee enthusiast to best enhance the aromatic characteristics of a good espresso combined with those of a good milk. A dense and compact foam with a particularly fine texture, perfectly matches with that of the espresso, producing a unique and sweet mix.
Today, for all those who have a lactose intolerance or due to ethical reasons or simply because they want to change the classic match with cow’s milk, vegetable drinks can be an easy to find alternative. Whereas cow’s milk tends to be neutral at the palate, plant-based milks have recognizable flavour profiles .
Choosing the right milk to blend with the coffee, depends on the variety of the beans and their level of roasting. Making the right pairing can definitely enhance both the aromas of coffee and those of the vegetable drink. In order to pair the right milk alternative with the right coffee, it’s necessary to get a little familiar with the flavour profiles of the various coffees:
Arabica coffees from East Africa have floral and fruity aromas with a pleasant acidic taste, pairing best with plants milks made with oat and almond.
Arabica Coffees from Central and South America have stone fruits and bakery aromas, with a good sweetness, sometimes with a light acidity, pair well with plant milks made with soy, oat and almond.
Arabica coffees from Asia and all Robusta origins have bakery, cocoa, pipe tobacco, spicy aromas with an intense body and bitter taste pair well with plant milks made with soy.
