Santa Julia

Santa Julia was a really nice way to get my subscription started because I could tell the quality of the bean as soon as smelt it. It would probably work much better as a pour over brew but using it as espresso allowed the milk chocolate & hazelnut notes to fill the cup, the lighter roast that allowed the fruity quality was something I personally don’t look for in a bean but it didn’t throw me entirely off. 3.5 - 5 and for a snob, that’s not to bad. Cheers.

Usually I'm more interested more in complexity of flavors than smoothness. While this coffee definitely screams "smooth!" it also keeps the flavors evolving and interesting enough to keep me interested. Highly recommended.
