Product description
The particularly dark-roasted E.S.E. Lucaffé Pulcinella pods embody the southern Italian espresso culture. Its high Robusta content ensures a pronounced caffeine content, while fine chocolaty notes and a slightly sparkling mouthfeel make this espresso unmistakable.
The coffee creation with the full name "Pulcinella Lucafféina" is described by Lucaffé itself as a kind of natural energy drink. In fact, it is an intensely dark roast with a high proportion of Robusta beans of 40%, which are known for their strong taste and invigorating effect.
Lucaffé has made a name for itself internationally as a specialist in coffee pods and operates a manufactory in Carpenedolo, Brescia, which specializes in this type of single-serve coffee.n has specialized in. The little man that adorns the packaging of Lucaffé Pulcinella E.S.E. pods has been a symbol of quality and Italian coffee culture for many years.
The traditional roastery relies on a slow, gentle roasting process at low temperatures. This traditional approach reduces bitter substances while preserving the aromatic richness and stomach tolerance of the espresso. The result is a powerful, intense taste with southern Italian character.
About Lucaffè
Lucaffè was founded in 1996 by Gian Luca Venturelli on Lake Garda — in a 30-square-metre workshop with a roasting machine from the 1950s. Venturelli had previously studied espresso at university, trained at a small roastery in Desenzano del Garda and worked directly with coffee farmers in South America. His guiding principle "La Qualità è Salute" — quality is health — still defines the brand today. Lucaffè was the first roastery in Italy to use a fluidised bed roaster: air heated to 250 °C circulates evenly around the beans, preventing uneven roasting and burning. The beans are then ground in a three-stage process under oxygen exclusion at low temperature. Everything is packed in the signature Lucaffè stainless steel tins under nitrogen atmosphere — plastic-free and 100% recyclable.
Today, Lucaffè exports to over 70 countries and produces more than two million ESE pods per month. The Nespresso-compatible capsules are made from sugarcane extract and are both biodegradable and compostable — a rare dual certification in the market. In 2023, the Pulcinella blend was awarded best espresso, followed in 2024 by Blucaffè with the same title and victory at the Best Espresso Contest in Naples. The company is registered as an Italian Società Benefit and a close partner of Espressa. At Espressa, we carry Lucaffè coffee beans, ESE pods and Nespresso-compatible capsules.
