new espresso.....la forza!

We just switched over to Espresso La Forza this morning.  It can be described as a smooth, full bodied darker espresso with almost a hint of brown sugar.  Excellent for espresso macchiatos and cappuccinos. 


Counter Culture has this to say about La Forza:  "We’ve christened our Southern-Italian blend La Forza, or The Force, as an indication of the intensity of the blend. Combining the smoky sweetness of beautiful, unique coffees from three continents, this rich, smoky espresso will yield a consistently thick crema along with its bold, memorable flavor."

Our Extraction Specs:
We've been pulling La Forza at 16 grams for 24 seconds with a temperature of 200 F resulting in about a roughly 1.5 ounce shot.
