    Woody-tasting dark roast with some good smoky characteristics, good crema, and a decent acidic balance. Oily sheen. Slightly ashray-ish and woody though. Passable for dark roast lovers.

More Details

Roast Level: Italian
Italian roast coffee is one of the darkest roasts available, darker than what is typically labeled as "dark roast." The beans go to a higher temperature, which results in a glossy, dark brown appearance with an oily surface. The flavor profile of Italian roast coffee is characterized by its low acidity and heavy body, offering deep, rich, and sometimes charred or burnt flavors that hint at chocolate or caramel. However, the intensity of the roast often overshadows these. It is commonly used for espresso due to its strong taste and its thick, creamy consistency when brewed.
