The Trouble with Single Origin Espresso
Single varietal espresso is sometimes good, but it is not always the best way to present a coffee or enjoy an espresso. I prefer an espresso in which the acidity and brightness are balanced by a depth of body often not found in light roast single origin offerings.
And while this is true when drinking a double shot of espresso straight, it can become more important as part of a latte drink, where light roasts can lack a boldness or backbone to shine through the milk.
Roasting a good espresso to be balanced and subtle at the same time is not necessarily a one-bean-fits-all proposition.
When it comes to roasting coffee beans for espresso, my philosophy is balance. The issue with many single origin espressos is that they are not roasted to be balanced, but to be extraordinary in some way. They succeed in being tart and tangy, but are left without enough body to balance out the bright notes of the coffee.
If I were to use a beer analogy, its like a pale ale that is a little hoppy but drinks smoothly, versus one that is really hoppy and sharp on the palate. That's the kind of flavor difference we are talking about with espresso too.
While I do have a few single origin coffees that make an excellent espresso shot (the Organic Ethiopia Natural Hambela, for example) usually that's a secondary consideration for me, and a bonus of the varietal! Most of the time, I roast coffee for coffee and espresso for espresso. My espresso roast profiles are formulated specifically for an espresso extraction. The result is a balanced yet nuanced cup.
If you enjoy espresso, try one of our blends especially roasted to bring out the best in your brew:
Trianon Espresso (Classic cafe favorite since 1985!)
Organic Espresso
Decaf Espresso

The marital crisis I was going through came to and end when Dr Isikolo got involved. Just like every other couples out there, we had our differences and I ensure I did my best to lead her right, provide for her and my kids and also protected them. We both made sacrifices to ensure we survived the union until she started acting up and deliberately had so many fights with me. The home became unpleasant for everyone else including my children. She was being manipulated by a friend who had been divorced and wanted to also ruin my marriage. I had to contact Dr Isikolo and he responded and did his best to end the issues. He restored the love and connection between us and I can tell now that whatever illusion my wife was under has been taking away and she is a better woman now. The result of what Dr Isikolo did for me that manifested after two days was what amazed me. I and my household remain grateful. I appeal to anyone who needs help to fix their relationships and marital problems to contact Dr Isikolo because the solution is sure.

Bitcoin Recovery Testimony – From a Retired Sailor
My name is George Jenks, and I want to share something deeply personal that I hope might help someone out there. A few months ago, I fell victim to a binary trading scam that ended up costing me around $180,000 worth of Bitcoin. It was one of the most painful and disheartening experiences of my life. I truly believed I was making a smart investment—everything looked legitimate, from the website to the so-called “financial advisors” who kept reassuring me. But the moment I tried to withdraw my funds, everything went quiet. They stopped replying, and reality hit me hard. I had been scammed.
I was devastated. Not just because of the money, but because of how helpless I felt. After doing some research and reading stories from people in similar situations, I came across a company called Cloudstrike Cyber Service. At first, I didn’t get my hopes up—let’s be honest, after losing that much, it’s hard to trust anyone. But I figured I had nothing more to lose, so I reached out to them at [Cloudstrikecyber@gmail.com]
From the beginning, they were incredibly professional and straightforward. They didn’t promise miracles, but they did assure me they would do everything in their power to trace and recover the stolen assets. And that’s exactly what they did. Through careful blockchain analysis, technical expertise, and persistent work, they were able to track down the stolen funds and successfully recover a large portion of what I had lost. It felt like waking up from a nightmare.
To this day, I still don’t know how to properly thank them. What they did went beyond just helping me get my money back—they gave me back my peace of mind. The best way I can show my appreciation is by recommending them to anyone who’s going through something similar. If you’ve been scammed or lost money in crypto fraud, I strongly encourage you to contact them. Their email is [Cloudstrikecyber@gmail.com]

They made a real difference in my life, and I believe they can do the same for others.
