    Complex, floral, interesting espresso. I'd like one more deep/rich note in here to balance off the bergamot, but this one has a fun set of twists and turns.

    Fresh apricot I think describes the acidity well - it really shines when leveled a bit in the iced Americano. Bergamot dominates the mid-palate, and the finish goes back to blackberry. Starts and ends with some dark chocolate on the palate. Medium crema, medium mouthfeel. This is very nice.

    Cupping Method:Iced Americano, espresso, and one rare cortado for me.

    This roast makes a delicious espresso! Creamy mouthfeel, complex with layered flavors featuring chocolate, orange, a sweet acidity, and a brush of astringency. Strong flavor from start to finish. Vibrant, unique, and lively!

    Cupping Method:Moka espresso, cream with no sweetener

More Details

Roast Level: Medium
Medium roast coffee balances the beans' natural flavors and the roasting process, providing a well-rounded taste profile. When selecting a medium roast, look for a balance of acidity and sweetness, with caramel, nuts, and chocolate notes and a medium body.
Bean Source Country: Ethiopia
Widely regarded as the birthplace of coffee, Ethiopia boasts diverse and complex flavors, from bright, floral, and citrusy in Yirgacheffe to wine-like and berry-toned in Sidama. The country's heirloom varieties, combined with unique processing methods, make Ethiopian coffee truly distinctive and sought-after by enthusiasts worldwide.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema—the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
