Ristretto
The Ristretto originates in Italy. This short drink, normally taken after a meal, is only for true coffee lovers. The brewing water (30 - 50 ml/Cup) is pushed through the compressed powder under a high pressure of 8 to 10 bar. The typical look of an Espresso is the hazel nutty, velvety Crema and the full, rich Aroma.
