I experimented with this espresso a bit but never quite found a shot that really impressed me. It has a delightful chocolate aroma, both pre- and post-grind, and the bag notes of brown sugar, dried apricot, and butterscotch mostly held true once pulled as espresso. It's just doesn't come quite together. I never got a single shot of espresso I thought was outstanding though it was all OK.
The crema was sticky and medium-bodied, offering decent complexity, though nothing extraordinary.
It worked well in the drinks I made, and while it wasn't a standout, it got consistent, positive feedback from family visiting.
I've heard great things about Bird Rock and hope to try more of their coffee.Cupping Method:I got this back from Trade and tried making this at 94, 95, and 96C.
