Rio Formula One Coffee Beans — 40kg Bulk Buy | Wholesale Italian Espresso Blend
The maximum-value option for high-volume businesses that know what they want. 40kg of Rio Formula One — the precision-blended Italian espresso trusted by cafés, restaurants, hotels, and offices across the UK and exported to over 40 countries worldwide. At just £13.25 per kg, this is the lowest cost-per-cup available on the Formula One range, with FREE UK pallet delivery included. Carbon Neutral certified.
The blend itself needs no introduction to anyone who's pulled a shot through it. Bold, rich, and relentlessly consistent — dark chocolate, caramelised sweetness, and a thick crema that holds from the first cup of the morning to the last of the day. This is the blend that performs under pressure, at volume, without compromise.
The Taste
Formula One opens with deep aromas of roasted cocoa and caramelised sugar. The cup is full-bodied and velvety, with a chocolatey richness underpinned by a bright, assertive depth. Colombian Arabica brings sweet complexity and natural acidity. Brazilian Arabica adds the backbone — rich, nutty, and deeply satisfying. African Robusta drives the crema and the finish — thick, persistent, and earthy. Strength 4/5. Built for espresso. Built for volume.
