Did not appreciate the balance

* 17.2g dose and coarser grind. (Lower than usual.)
* Smaller beans and darker roast.

Honestly one of the best espressos I’ve ever had. Quality!
9/29/2023
It was good. Nice flavor
8/11/2023
Really enjoyed this espresso. Easy to pull on standard machines/grinders with good results.
6/15/2023
I like the taste. It has a hint of sweetness. One of the best so far.
5/23/2023
A new favorite! Such a smooth, creamy cup!
5/22/2023
These beans lean towards the Light-Medium side which was good, but slightly too light a roast for my preference.
4/3/2023
Loved the tasting notes. Made for a clean espresso
12/28/2022
this one is not doing much for me. it's not that it's a bad coffee, it's just that there's nothing too distinct about it.
9/14/2022
Thought this was actually nice—have jumped between cups of coffee and espresso shots. Both tasted great, and love the packaging
8/22/2022
Too dark, bitter
7/7/2022
It was OK. Had a hard time getting the recipe right with this one.
4/9/2022
Good coffee, too blended for me, not as sweet as described
3/16/2022
Was hard to dial in for some reason. Tasted good when shots were good but good shots were rare.
1/28/2022
Loved the chocolate notes but the after taste thru me
Off.
Off.
1/10/2022
This is exactly what I want in a coffee! The profile, roast, deepness. Would love to find more similar to this.
1/5/2022
Really enjoy the forward-facing taste of the honey. Hit in our house. Second try was not as flavorful. Charred taste.
12/2/2021
excellent and well balanced
11/1/2021
Really very good! Solid overall flavor. The chocolate notes are good but wish I could coax the fruitier tones out that are described.
8/21/2021
Super bitter. Did not like.
8/12/2021
The amount of coffee in the back was not work the price. If this is what I get from Tony's I will be taking them off my lineup.
8/8/2021
muddy, burnt, too complex
7/20/2021
Perfect roast for my Breville espresso maker. Great flavor and excellent roast provided a nice shot for lattes, or just by itself
6/27/2021
Our favorite so far. Very creamy and smooth. Like a desert drink
6/15/2021
This was smooth and sweet and went great with milk. Will order again!
5/23/2021
Best ever
5/10/2021
I found that it tasted better after I ground it a little finer than I usually do for drip.
5/1/2021
This was too bitter for me. I tried brewing multiple ways with different amounts and it never tasted nearly as sweet as I expected it to be.
4/15/2021
Loved it!
4/14/2021
The milk chocolate notes were particularly noticeable. However, a perfect shot was not easily reproducible. I would probably rate this a 5 if I could get those milk chocolate notes every time.
4/4/2021
Pretty good, overall very well rounded bean juice.
3/23/2021
Quite a flat flavor, light chocolate. Smooth.
3/20/2021
Really great
3/16/2021
Great
3/14/2021
Meh.
3/13/2021
Tasted old and bitter
3/12/2021
Straightforward medium roast that works in and out of milk, can't go wrong.
3/12/2021
Delicious
3/9/2021
We simply loved this - excellent espresso!
3/5/2021
The sweetness came out. I used a combination of frothed 1/2 & 1/2 and fresh whole milk that enhanced the full body.
3/1/2021
Very weak and subtle, couldn’t really taste anything
2/21/2021
Great taste and good for capps and lattes. The crema from this bean is exceptional. My favorite from Mistobox so far.
2/17/2021
It's too bitter for my taste. I drink strong coffee 2 cups a day. Don't like the bitterness
2/13/2021
This everything an espresso should be! Very aromatic: smell of chocolate and nuts. This espresso is a very creamy smoot crema layer with smooth flavor profile with noticeable chocolate and light nutty flavor.
2/7/2021
This is my favorite coffee ever! Smooth, delicious, irresistible! I can't get enough of it
2/6/2021
I think I may just prefer lighter roasts and fruiter coffee. Easy to dial in, but not very exciting.
2/6/2021
Great flavor.
2/4/2021
It was a lot more acidic than we prefer and didn't have a rich enough coffee flavor when pulled in an espresso shot.
1/31/2021
Amazing. So delicious, perfect fruit-tinged sweetness, evenly balanced. One of the best Americanos I've ever had
1/29/2021
Bland, boring, a little bitter. Terrible coffee. Had two cups and threw the rest out.
1/28/2021
Great taste profile, good for a regular cup of coffee, not too exciting.
1/25/2021
A good coffee overall. Couldn't shake the hint of bitterness no matter how I adjusted it, with and without milk.
1/25/2021
The crema this espresso created was incredible
1/21/2021
This was great with milk.
1/18/2021
This was my first "artisan" or "high-end" coffee not directly from the grocery store and I have been very happy with it! Love the sweetness of the coffee without having to add anything!
1/18/2021
Liked the flavor of this, was fun trying espresso
1/8/2021
This is now my wife's favorite coffee. She enjoys the mouthfeel and weight as much as the balance between chocolate and roast. I was unable to taste due to COVID taking taste and smell from me temporarily, but it felt good to drink :)
1/7/2021
My personal favorite so far.
1/3/2021
I loved this. "Sweet and heavy-bodied" is right, I love how little acidity I tasted.
12/29/2020
Very tasty and strong. I expected a sweeter profile, but I loved it overall
12/29/2020
Loved it!
12/22/2020
Very good
12/16/2020
my favorite yet
12/11/2020
I have made this my standard espresso blend. It has a great crema (which I know is not popular these days, but my wife and I love it). It's sweet, and is very forgiving with over- and under extraction.
12/5/2020
Stronger than I would typically enjoy - maybe a bit on the bitter side.
Just want to make sure that I am getting an espresso grind - this bag said "Drip Coffee Grind"

Excellent espresso.. smooth, great flavor.. will add to my queue again!
11/20/2020
Yum! Good amount of darkness
11/20/2020
Not as robust as I hoped. Tasted nuttiness but the other notes never really came through
11/20/2020
Very dark and bold, but very smooth and with low acidity!
11/15/2020
Accurate to the tasting notes. Needs to be a little more bold to hold up to milk. Ultimately really good though.
11/11/2020
One of my faves!! Perfectly balanced!
11/6/2020
Nuttyness came across tasting like peanut butter.
10/26/2020
Great robust coffee with hints of honey. Not overly sweet though for the description.
10/21/2020
Pretty good, but not consistent in the taste. A higher dose may have helped. I run 18.5g normally, but 20g+ (as used in my final shot with this bag) yielded more taste. Makes a beautiful shot, but taste not so robust.
9/20/2020
Love this espresso.
9/1/2020
Loved the syrupy aspect, didn’t taste honey. Had a slightly higher acidity than I like. Still a very tasty coffee and great with milk.
8/9/2020
A little over-roasted/bitter.
