Intelligentsia Black Cat Espresso Premium Light Roast Whole Bean Coffee, Arabica, 12 oz

This was pulled using 20g in a 2oz shot for lattes. This is a good, solid espresso with no frills. Everyone that had it liked it. I enjoyed the fruitier notes of it and used a chocolate syrup at one point to pull out the taste of cola. If you want a solid espresso that will go into every drink without worrying about flavors crashing, or you are looking for a forgiving go to espresso, I'd highly recommend this one.

I used 20g of this blend to pull a 2 oz shot to use in lattes. I prefer a lighter roast for lattes. I loved this coffee. The stone fruit aromatics came through while grinding and the honey and milk chocolate more with drinking. For friends that drank coffee black but usually found just a shot of espresso to be too much, they loved it with a sprinkle of salt and cinnamon. Great, smooth mouth feel that will leave you sad when the bag is over or wanting another cup for the taste even though it'll mess up your sleep. This blend would be fantastic as a cafe miel if you wanted to highlight that honey note a little more to celebrate the roast in a flavored drink.
