Your ticket to the chocolate factory
Yirga Santos transports you straight to Charlie's chocolate factory. The slightly darker roast of this Arabica-Robusta blend impresses with an intense chocolate aroma.
Tips for preparation
Do you like cappuccino, other milk drinks, or maybe a little sugar? Then Yirga Santos is just the thing for you! Especially when combined with milk (or milk alternatives), it creates a strong, creamy coffee that loses none of its powerful character.
With this Arabica-Robusta team, every crema comes out just right
It's all in the blend: 75% Arabica creates an intense, low-acid espresso that, thanks to the 25% Robusta content, reliably delivers a golden crema every day. The beans for this harmonious blend come from three countries: Brazil, Ethiopia, and India. While the high-quality Arabica beans from Brazil and Ethiopia provide a chocolatey note and a fine, balanced sweetness, the first-class Robusta from India brings strength and crema.
Quality that starts with the harvest
In Brazil, we work with the APAS cooperative, located in the southeast, with whom we share the same commitment to exceptional quality and fair production conditions. The farmers carefully harvest and select the coffee cherries by hand and let them dry in the sun – this is how the particularly chocolatey notes typical of Brazil develop.
In Ethiopia, we invest in training in collaboration with Welthungerhilfe and local cooperatives (e.g., in the Limu region) so that farmers can improve the quality of their harvests. This not only increases their income in the long term, but also improves their living conditions.
Whether you prepare it in an espresso machine or a mocha pot, Yirga Santos is a reliable espresso that always turns out well.

Keine zuverlässige Extraktion möglich gewesen
Leider ein sehr komischer Kaffee. Habe den Mahlgrad in wirklich großem Umfang geändert und angepasst, am Durchfluss des Espressos ändert sich aber nichts. Mahlgrad 12 bis Mahlgrad 17 (Mazzer Philos) sorgten beide für einen Shot-Durchlauf in 19 Sekunden. 20g:40g Dies ist mir bisher bei keinem Kaffee auch nur im Ansatz so passiert. Dementsprechend war es geschmacklich eher auch suboptimal.
sehr guter Espresso
Lecker
Sehr leckerer Espresso den ich am liebsten im Cappuccino genieße! Leider hat Gutes auch seinen Preis.
Mit dem Kaffee
Mit dem Kaffee , geschmacklich bin ich total zufrieden . Leider hatte ich bei meiner letzten Charge richtig Pech , es befanden sich sehr große Rückstände , verkrustete Stücke in meinem Kaffee . Bei dieser Qualität hat es mich sehr erschrocken . Gerne hätte ich Ihnen die Chargennummer zugesandt , finde aber keine . Geröstet wurde der Kaffee am 13.Mai 2025 . Was mich beunruhigt , habe ich evt. schon Teile nicht gesehen und mit gemahlen ? Ich weiß nicht ob weiter bei Ihnen Kaffee kaufe . Für mich war auch der geringe Säuregehalt sehr wichtig . Aus diesem Grunde nur 2 Punkte . Mit freundlichen Grüßen Simone Delfs
Guter Geschmack
Eine leckere Röstung, die ich in meinem Vollautomaten genießen kann. Durch die kleine Packungsgröße bleiben die Bohnen frisch.
Kräftiger Muntermacher
Dieser Espresso ist wie beschrieben, kräftig im Geschmack und bildet eine schöne Crema. Ich bereite mir daraus gerne einen doppelten Espresso mit der ECM Puristica mit einem Mahlgrad etwas über 3.
Mein Lieblingskaffee.
