Passaparola Tuono

Passaparola Tuono – Powerful like Thunder

1000 g whole beans

Passaparola Espresso Tuono – “the Thunder” – stands for pure power and unmistakable presence that leaves a lasting impression. This exceptionally bold blend, dark-roasted in the Neapolitan style, captures the essence of an espresso that is full-bodied, intense, and uncompromising on the palate. Tuono embodies an espresso experience that delivers force, character, and enduring enjoyment in every cup.

From the very first sip, a complex interplay of aromas unfolds: dark chocolate, caramelized walnut, tonka bean, and malty notes merge into an intense flavor experience. The espresso is remarkably low in acidity, allowing the aromas to shine through clearly, smoothly, and harmoniously. The result is an espresso that combines a full body, maximum intensity, and lasting depth of flavor.

Strong body and dense crema

High-quality beans create a dense, hazelnut-colored crema that fully carries the aroma and harmoniously rounds out the strong body. Tuono reveals its distinctive intensity both enjoyed straight as an espresso and as a base for cappuccino and latte macchiato, where its aromas come through especially well.

Dark roast and low acidity

The long, gentle roasting process makes the espresso very low in acidity—almost imperceptible—while emphasizing the blend’s rich aromas. Dark chocolate, caramelized walnut, tonka bean, and malty warmth take center stage, creating a rounded yet powerful espresso experience.

Passaparola’s master roasters combine classic Neapolitan roasting tradition with artisanal precision. Passion, experience, and care in every roast make Tuono an espresso that convinces cup after cup.
