Sfumato is a blend designed to blur the lines between modern specialty green coffee and traditional northern Italian roasting. For people who love thick, low acidity espresso with massive flavor and aroma. If you are pulling shots of Sfumato on a leva machine, we love you. 

The name Sfumato comes from a line blurring painting technique pioneered and mastered by Leonardo Da Vinci  (it’s Leo, of course it was mastered). You will notice virtually none of his paintings have hard lines.

We hope for the same for our Sfumato, soft and a blurry representation of the beauty and diversity of coffee flavor and roasting techniques. Without compromising on green coffee quality or authenticity of flavor.

Here at Tribute we love to explore the incredible depth of flavor, taste and textures that can be found in the world of coffee. Most of our work is dedicated to trying to present authentic coffee flavors based on the type, time and place of each coffee we buy.

Sfumato is a little different.

Here our goal is to produce something authentic to the pioneers of modern day espresso, Italian coffee culture. No compromise is made on the quality or traceability in the green coffees we use for Sfumato. Which believe it or not, actually makes our job harder with roast profiles and blending to come up with the Sfumato taste.

This is our attempt at blurring the lines between specialty and tradition
