A stunning espresso with remarkable depth of flavor.
There's nothing here a regular espresso drinker hasn't seen, but the depth of the flavor here is eye-opening. The aroma is deep chocolate and you almost spend the whole day with a smile on your face smelling it.
In the cup it's rich chocolate, caramel, toffee, dark cherry, and blackberry. It's deep and complex. It spins out a big crema that gives it a lush mouthfeel. It's hard to explain but I get a fresh bag of espresso every week - maybe one out of 25 bags just has this richness.
Outstanding!Cupping Method:Espresso, Americano, latte, it does well. Primarily pulling at 95C on my La Spaziale A53.

Angels cup blind tasting in front of coffee flavor wheel.
Maple syrup, very earthy, black tea, candied grapefruit, maybe a touch hoppy. I like it overall but might not be for everyone. -

This roast struck me as a great winter espresso. Kind of a medium-dark with an unusual flavor profile-- unsweetened cinnamon toast. I can picture this as a cozy breakfast treat on a cold winter day.Cupping Method:Moka espresso, cream with no sweetener
