Tasting Notes

Pleasant, fruit-forward aroma with notes of berries and flowers. In the cup, crisp but smooth with intense flavors of lush citrus, brown sugar and apricot that settle to tart berry and chocolate in the finish.

93 Points on Coffee Review June 2023

"Evaluated as espresso. Sweetly tart, richly bright. Pomegranate, dark chocolate, narcissus, tangerine zest, brown sugar in aroma and cup. Crisp, satiny mouthfeel, chocolaty, fruit-tart finish. In cappuccino-scaled milk, pomegranate and dark chocolate notes are juxtaposed with narcissus."

"A trifecta of tart fruit, deep chocolate and spicy floral notes, this espresso blend offers further intrigue with its successful inclusion of a Robusta component. Especially rich in cappuccino format."

Background Info

Our original espresso coffee blend, roasted a bit lighter than our Espresso Nuevo. Modeled after the classic, gently roasted espresso blends of Northern Italy. This cohesive blend is best enjoyed as a solo or doppio espresso and also makes a great base for Americanos and small milk drinks such as Espresso Macchiato and Cappuccino. For those who enjoy larger milk based drinks - 12 ounces and larger - we recommend our Espresso Nuevo blend.
