Espresso Roast
Espresso Roast: Espresso Roast flirts on the edge of ruin. Coffee is roasted to its extreme limit, the beans are nearly black with very heavy oils. Seconds too long in the roaster will completely destroy all of the natural oils in the bean. Traditionally used for espresso and espresso-based drinks, this roast level has seen diminished use in flavor of Espresso Blends, which combine the flavors of different Varietals at varying roast levels to create great espresso.
