    Radial is one of the places I've seen in CT and really outside of big cities that serves light roast espresso as their primary. It usually just doesn't meet the taste of espresso drinkers outside of the third wave lovers. So it really made my day to find this gem on a drive to New Jersey from Boston.

    This was just an light roast espresso. Lime, blackberry, tamarind. A good amount of natural sweetness behind it that keeps it from getting out of bounds. A little nutty in the almond range perhaps.

    Really balanced despite all the tart flavors. Actually been quite a while since I had one this good!

    Very tasty filter, coffee with almost no bitterness whatsoever, slight almond character, and then leads into bright orange a little bit of tea and a little bit of chocolate and an extremely clean finish with a lightly lemony linger.

    Cupping Method:Filter at Radial Coffee in Vernon, CT. Drank in the car on the way to NJ. The barista told me this was the blend they used for filter.

Editor's Overview

Radial Coffee, located just outside Hartford on the busy route between Boston and New York, offers a stylish yet unassuming storefront that opens into a thoughtfully designed space. Inside, you'll find well-trained, knowledgeable baristas serving excellent filter coffee with a light-medium roast profile, as well as the bold choice of a light roast espresso. It's a must-visit for coffee enthusiasts traveling the corridor, an easy stop off the highway with clear focus on quality.
