    o far, I have not had a great time with Pod & Parcel's taster pods, so you can imagine that I was a little nervous trying the Bancroft pod from the same line, and doubly so when, upon extraction, I detected the dreaded earthy scents that I really struggle with. Thankfully, it was far more moderate with this one, which also has some hints of dried fruit. Taste-wise, the coffee has a lot of acidity and a little sweetness, giving it a fruity profile. 2.5/5 - Not for me, but I can see why someone would like this!

    The manufacturer describes this coffee as one that goes well with milk, at an intensity of 11/13. It's supposed to have notes of cocoa, nougat, and pomegranate, though honestly, I'm picking up a lot more of the latter than the first two. The official writeup doesn't seem to recommend having this straight at all, so perhaps it's worth another shot in the future with milk.

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.
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.
