Two 2-pound bags of Café Cubita Whole Bean Gourmet — 4 lb total ($40/bag), the household-size buy for daily cafecito drinkers who land on Cubita as their everyday coffee. Cubita sits between Pilón and Bustelo in the great Cuban coffee debate — drier, more aromatic, with a slightly cleaner finish.

How does Cubita compare to Pilón and Bustelo?

All three are Cuban-style espresso roasts. Cubita has the driest, most aromatic profile — clean finish, less aggressive than Bustelo, less smooth than Pilón. Pilón is the smoothest of the three, the South Florida daily-drinker favorite. Bustelo hits sharpest and most bitter, with prominent dark chocolate notes. Cubita is often the choice for cafecito drinkers who want espresso character without Bustelo's punch.

How to brew the perfect cafecito

Grind to fine espresso consistency. Fill a moka pot's bottom chamber with water to the valve. Pack the basket lightly with fresh-ground Cubita — don't tamp. Brew over medium heat. As the first drops emerge, beat them in a separate cup with 2–3 teaspoons of sugar until you get espumita (thick pale foam). Pour the rest of the brew over the foam. Serve in small cafecito cups.

Storage

Vacuum bags stay fresh 12+ months sealed. Once opened, reseal and keep in a cool, dark spot. Whole bean stays peak quality 4–6 weeks after opening — use the second bag fresh.
