Coffee: just the way you like it

Coffee is every bit as distinctive as those who relish it. From the first thing in the morning to right before the end of the workday, many people can’t do without at least one cup. Whether we savor it in a special moment, sip it on the go, share a cup with a friend, or just enjoy it all to ourselves, coffee is always welcome throughout the day.
Since 1908, and for good reason
Through passion, solid expertise, and innovative flair, Sirocco has been steadfastly committed since 1908 to provide a wide range of coffee varieties best suited to personal tastes, while ensuring an aromatic, high-quality, and authentic coffee experience. A venerable legacy that has spanned four generations.
We believe coffee quality begins well before the cup: in the selection of base ingredients, the origin of every bean, and how meticulously they are processed and packaged. Our roasting plant in Schmerikon on upper Lake Zurich has been continually implementing cutting-edge methods for decades – harnessing advanced technology and the same painstaking care that has defined our business since 1908.
Diverse enjoyment, one common standard: coffee of the highest quality
The way coffee is prepared often boils down to a mix of habit and the appliances available at your home or in the office. Since we all enjoy coffee differently and personal preferences matter, brewing techniques give each cup of coffee its own unique character. What is more, our range of individual coffees can accommodate your favorite brewing method.
An interesting fact: Sirocco roasts only Arabica beans – the finer and more aromatic of the two coffee varieties that dominate the market today. We deliberately refrain from using less expensive Robusta beans, favoring the quality and finesse of Arabica beans. Their elegant notes range from chocolate to ripe fruit and floral notes. We roast beans from each origin separately to preserve their character before creating balanced blends.

Whole beans – coffee at its purest
It goes with saying that genuine coffee beans provide the most authentic way to enjoy coffee. Whole beans represent tradition, dedication, and produce a rich, natural flavor. They’re great for those who have their individual preferences when it comes to grinding and brewing.
Beans reach their full potential when freshly ground. They’re perfect for anyone who truly savors their coffee and celebrates their taste experience – whether from an espresso machine’s portafilter, a pour-over filter, or a classic Bialetti espresso maker.
Whether espresso, crema, or decaf: all Sirocco beans are roasted in small batches of the same single-origin coffee, blended, immediately packed, and sent to our customers freshly roasted.

Ground coffee – quite simply a classic pleasure
Ground coffee is the preferred choice of those connoisseurs who fully appreciate a variety of flavors without any tedious preparation. It means convenience, practicality, and reliability. No grinder, no frills, no fuss. Perfect for drip coffee makers, French presses, pour-over filters, or classic Bialetti espresso makers. Incidentally, Sirocco ground coffee blends are available in our ever-popular 250 g pouches and classic tins. The aroma valve on the bags optimally preserves the freshness of the roast, and the smaller package size ensures the coffee can be enjoyed at its freshest.

E.S.E. pod – for contemporary styles and tastes
E.S.E. pods make every coffee moment a true espresso experience. Reliable quality and aromatic flavor. These single-serve portions are perfect for a fast-paced, contemporary lifestyle since preparation is so easy: simply place the E.S.E. pod in a portafilter, press the button, and enjoy delicious coffee with a velvety crema and delicate roasted aromas. Afterward, these biodegradable pods can be disposed of in an eco-friendly manner.

A coffee range as diverse as the people who enjoy it
Whatever the method of preparation, all our coffees feature their own distinctive flavor signatures. They have all been carefully formulated to enhance their unique characteristics – from light and fruity to balanced, and all the way to rich and bold.
What unites them all is our promise:
Sirocco – for lasting enjoyment.
