Taste of the coffee

The Tortuga has a smooth flavor. Notes of milk chocolate. The Tortuga does have a bit more acidity than many other Danvi espressos. This makes it more suitable for slightly larger coffees for many people.

Use of this coffee

Tortuga is a slightly milder espresso that is well suited to slightly larger espresso shots. For example, use a brew ratio of 2.5 to 3. Tortuga also performs well in fully automatic coffee machines.
This coffee is also ideal for use in a moka pot (sometimes called a percolator).
This espresso roast is not suitable for filter coffee. Filter coffee made with this roast will taste bitter and flat.

Origin of the coffee

Tortuga is an organic coffee from Honduras, so it is grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides, and chemical fertilizers.

Ecology

Tortuga is an organic coffee from Honduras, meaning it is grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers.

On top of that, Danvi invests in reforestation around the world through a project in Peru that is run by the local population and a foundation in the Netherlands. For every 5 kilos of coffee we sell, we donate the planting and maintenance of 1 tree to this project.

Drink our coffee, we plant a tree

For every five kilos of coffee we sell in our webshop and store, we donate one tree to the Vida Verde Netherlands-Peru reforestation project.

Have your coffee ground

You can have us grind your coffee. See the list below for the recommended grind size. A lower number means a finer grind.

Please note: 
These values are starting points. Adjustments to the suggested grind size may be necessary for optimal results.

Not every bean tastes good with every brewing method. Read the coffee description for advice on how to use the coffee.

  • Semi-automatic espresso machine with a regular filter basket: 1.5
  • Semi-automatic espresso machine with a 'pressurised' filter basket: 2.5
  • Moka pot 1 to 3 cups: 4
  • Moka pot 4 to 10 cups: 4.5
  • Filter coffee: 8
  • French press: 12

A pressurised filter basket is a filter basket with built-in resistance that allows water to flow through slowly regardless of the grind size. Such a filter basket is usually recognisable by its double bottom, with many holes visible on the inside across the entire bottom and only a few holes visible on the outside.
