Brand profile
The frappé was invented in Thessaloniki in 1957. Today the freddo espresso is the standard cold coffee in Greece: a double espresso, whipped with ice for ten seconds and poured over fresh ice cubes. With only espresso and ice in the glass, every weakness of the bean shows at once. FREDDO chose a 100% Arabica blend that builds a dense foam with ice and works just as well hot.
