Tried this blend out as a grind at home. It is excellent. To many espressos I have tried are too intense to really be enjoyed and that includes blends at specialty coffee shops, Too oily or too overheated in their flavor makes a drink that must be endured rather than savored. Family members have a Delonghi and I ordered whole bean for them as a present. I know they will enjoy it.
Reordering a 5lb bag next time. The wife and I thought it was smooth and delicious.
This is excellent coffee! I heartily recommend it!
