    Earthy and slightly nutty dark roast, a touch of smoke. A bit flat taste wise without notable acidity (maybe a little bit of plum/prune).

    Barista didnt seem especially knowledgeable. I know this is a hospital location but its fully For Five branded and markets their beans. I think it was Sable Blend but the barista didnt actually know.

    Cupping Method:At the For Five in Longwood.

More Details

Roast Level: Dark
Dark roast coffee features a more intense, robust flavor profile due to its longer roasting time. Therefore, when selecting a dark roast, expect less acidity, a full body, and flavors like dark chocolate, smokiness, and a hint of bitterness.
Menu
The "Menu Item" flag was created so that the Coffee Roast community can track menu items such as espresso drinks or specialty concoctions at their favorite cafe. Reviewers can grade the underlying "roast," the beans used in their drink, according to their preference, or the ordered item itself.
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.
