“This one was a big hit last year and this time around it’s remarkably similar coffee.”
In the cup, you can expect a robust and somewhat intense brew. It’s absolutely fabulous espresso for those that prefer a more traditional approach to brewing under pressure.
In terms of tasting notes, there is a pleasant bitterness, however you like to brew. There are orange notes, but it’s like marmalade. Chocolate, sure - but with high cocoa content. Occasionally we’ll pick up a hint of something like molasses or bonfire toffee, but it’s easy to find a honey sweetness running through the coffee.
Espresso based milk drinks? - absolutely. Cafetière on a Sunday morning after one too many glasses of wine the night before? - perfect.
So, in some ways you could say it’s a bit old fashioned - and we’re good with that.
