Classic Espresso

Cafe-quality espresso, on your own counter. Classic Espresso is a medium roast of Central and South American beans chosen for sweetness, balance, and reliable extraction — the blend that makes your machine earn its space.

Tasting notes

  • Roast: Medium (espresso)
  • Flavor: Brown sugar, milk chocolate, crisp red apple
  • Origin: Central & South America
  • Best for: Espresso machines, Moka pot, AeroPress

The shot pulls with brown-sugar sweetness, a smooth milk-chocolate middle, and a crisp red-apple acidity that keeps it lively. Full-bodied but never heavy, with a clean, sweet finish — approachable as a daily driver, complex enough to keep exploring.

How to brew

Dialed for espresso: pull 18g in / 36g out for a balanced double. Also excellent in a Moka pot or as a strong AeroPress base. Whole bean or ground.
