Espresso Martini

• SERVING RECOMMENDATION: coup or martini glass, garnish with three coffee beans 
• BACKGROUND: The original Espresso Martini was created in the 1980s at Fred’s Club in London by the legendary bartender, Dick Bradsell. His original recipe included a blend of two coffee liqueurs, both of which had vanilla and chocolate added to their distinctive coffee base. 

The original blend of flavor is a key element of the Espresso Martini, and it was our goal to maintain. For our recipe, we chose to source coffee beans from Stean’s Beans that naturally had such chocolate and vanilla notes. We selected a natural, unwashed Arabica bean from Rwanda and a natural, unwashed Arabica bean from Kenya. We put our beans through multiple extraction techniques, which we then combine to create the final coffee blend.
