Ambergris Espresso Blend


Ambergris Espresso Blend

This is the first time in a long while that I have something other than my local favorite. Double Shot Coffee’s Ambergris Espresso Blend requires a finer grind setting, and it took me a couple of tries to dial this baby in (maybe a few more fine adjustments needed). The ground are light and fluffy, and when it pours, it pours like molasses. The body, however, is surprisingly lighter. The taste is fantastic, clean, and light (kinda like Stumpy’s Hair Bender that I remembered). It has more berry notes with an even finer grinds from my second double. I will try it with a little milk tomorrow.

How was it with a little milk?

I had only tried it in macchiato, and it has an unsweeten chocolate note which I like.
