Lush crema, wonderful balance. Chocolate and a nice roast grain note, like those fiber breakfast cookies you have in Europe. I do get just the ever so slight hint of the lavender they mention. A fresh summer berry acidity and undertone. One of the best espressos that I've found.Cupping Method:A53 Lucca Spaziale, espresso, Americano

Gracenote just has espresso down. This is journey in 10 seconds, chocolate, the right amount of bitterness, a plum/blackberry pie type acidity, some natural sweetness, a clean, lingering, tingling, pleasant finish.Cupping Method:Doppio at O'Some Cafe in Watertown

A little nutty in the middle, a sweet burst of fruitiness at the end, a nice round flavor that lingers. A pleasure to sip.Cupping Method:Hario V60 Pourover

Distinctly robust and flavorful! There is a strong sweet chocolate base, complimented by a light citrus undertone. The finish is a bit dry with compelling epilogue of roasted nut. I am looking forward to trying this roast in a variety of brewing methods to see what other flavors are unlocked. Usually I stick to Vietnamese drip, but tried this roast as a latte today, and I am quite pleased with the result.Cupping Method:Latte
