    Appealing aroma and balanced espresso trending dark. Syrupy mouthfeel and nice crema. Good depth of chocolate flavor, with nutty, earthy notes but perhaps a bit short on the complexity and spice side.

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, which is 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.
