    This is a consistently strong and reliable cup. The Dark Horse is made with natural Brazilian Mogiana, washed Colombian Huila, and dry-processed Ethiopian Guji beans, roasted to a medium-dark level, and is best brewed using a 1:2 ratio around 93 degrees Celsius. The espresso offers a medium-density, hazelnut-brown crema, a full-bodied texture, and a flavour that combines chocolate fudge, caramel, roasted almond, and a subtle dried cherry sweetness that develops as it cools. Mecca serves the espresso typically at five to seven days off roast, which keeps the crema rounded and balanced, even when served with milk.

    Cupping Method:This is part of our Man on the Street best espresso series. This pick comes from Daniel Vasilevski (profile link below).
