KAFIEX x Meraki - Three Amigos

Chocolate-forward, full-bodied, and built to shine in milk, Three Amigos is our flagship espresso blend and the house espresso at Kafiex Gastro Café.

This fixed three-component blend brings together coffees from Mexico, Brazil, and Colombia, using the same coffees featured in our single-origin lineup. Each component is roasted separately before blending, allowing us to develop its sweetness, body, and structure individually.

Roasted to a Medium+ level, Three Amigos delivers chocolate and butterscotch sweetness, supported by black cherry and a full, velvety body. Its low perceived acidity creates a smooth and comforting profile, whether served as espresso, paired with milk, or brewed as French press or drip coffee.

Blend Design and Roast Profile

Three Amigos combines two washed coffees from Mexico and Colombia with a naturally processed coffee from Brazil. Together, they create a balanced blend with rich sweetness, rounded body, and gentle fruit character.

Every component is roasted separately before blending. This allows us to develop each coffee according to its individual density and moisture content while preserving the consistent Three Amigos flavor profile.

The Medium+ roast emphasizes:

• Chocolate and butterscotch sweetness
• A full, rounded body
• Black cherry depth
• Low perceived acidity
• A smooth finish without excessive roast bitterness

Award History

Three Amigos has received multiple awards for milk-based espresso over the years. While the individual coffees have evolved, we continue to build the blend around the same signature flavor profile: chocolate-forward sweetness, full body, low perceived acidity, and enough structure to remain present in milk.

Kafiex Gastro Café House Espresso

Three Amigos is the house espresso at Kafiex Gastro Café on the Vancouver Waterfront. Its balance and versatility make it equally suited to straight espresso, Americanos, cappuccinos, lattes, and other milk-based drinks.

Versatile Brewing

Although developed for espresso, Three Amigos also performs beautifully as:

• Milk drinks: Rich enough to remain flavorful in lattes, cappuccinos, and flat whites
• French press: Full-bodied, chocolate-forward, and smooth
• Auto drip: Sweet, rounded, and approachable for everyday brewing
