Complex medium roast espresso with bittersweet dark chocolate, blackberry, tamarind and bergamot notes. Chocolate and orange zest linger.
Acidity is very bright. Tilts on the lighter roast side for where medium is landing. Very well balanced and nuanced. Well-extracted with a nice crema and mouthfeel. Nice natural sweetness that might be a touch in the molasses range.
Mineral water and ceramic would be nice for a cafe this stylish.
$3.75 plus tip for a doppio in downtown Boston is solid value at this point.
