Experience the elegance of the Amalfi Coast with Tafuri Positano. Part of the exclusive Tafuri Line by Saka Caffè (Torrefazione Tafuri), this 80/20 blend is crafted for those who love the rich, syrupy body of traditional Neapolitan espresso but crave the nuanced fruit and floral notes of modern specialty coffee. The Bridge Between Tradition and Specialty Coffee.
Why choose Tafuri Positano?
Unlike the "Bar Line" which focuses on bold, dark chocolate and low acidity, Positano offers a "Modern Espresso" profile—medium-roasted to preserve the origin characteristics while maintaining the legendary Neapolitan crema that home baristas prize.

- Mouthfeel: Exceptionally silky body with a thick, persistent crema.
