“Do you sell an espresso roast?” It’s a question we get often and can be tricky to answer based on the person’s understanding of what espresso even is. So here’s the down and dirty:
•Espresso is a brewing method using a specialized machine which brews a highly concentrated shot of coffee using finely ground coffee under high pressure
•This brewing method tends to amplify the characteristics of the coffee. If the coffee is too dark and roasty, the shot will be bitter. If it’s too light, it may taste sour or acidic.
• The best coffees for espresso are balanced, with good body, sweetness and complexity.
• Espresso roast does not mean dark roasted coffee ❌
• We recommend our Market Blend as a great starting point for espresso. Super balanced, chocolaty, and great in all your milk-based espresso drinks
Hope this helps!
