Attention Chocoholics: looking for an espresso that is
super duper chocolatey? Then Klatch House
Espresso is for you! I have been pulling shots all
morning on my new La Marzocco GS3 and am loving
it! Not to be confused with their
FTO House Espresso…This espresso is ultra rich and
has a heavy, creamy
body. Add steamed milk to the Klatch House
Espresso and it tastes like a Mocha without adding
any chocolate and all those calories. It is really quite
amazing. On my 3rd cappuccino this morning I
decided to experiment. While I never add sugar to my
coffee, because of the over the top chocolate body of
the espresso, I wanted to see what would happen if I
added a touch of sugar and a spray of whipped cream
on top. Well, as suspected, I felt like I was drinking a
real hot cocoa! I swear I was in back Paris having an
Angelina Hot Chocolate on Rue de Rivoli. Well, not
exactly. It isn't as thick, but almost. Because of its
richness in milk drinks, it may be a bit heavy for those
of you that slam 6 double Cappuccinos or Lattes
before noon, but for most people it will hit the spot
as a great mainstay to have on hand when you want
something sweet and naughty. For many people that
is everyday and all day long! |

Bella Finca coffee is an outstanding creation from Master
Roaster
Henry Kalebjian. Henry possesses a certain expertise that is
rare
in the coffee world. He has the unique ability of roasting bold
and incredibly flavorful dark coffees without burning the
precious beans. This comes from the experience of roasting
coffee for over 50 years, as well as fine-tuning every nuance of
his technique, having a supreme palate and knowing just when
to stop the roasting process. His San Francisco coffee shop on
foggy Noriega Street is well known to locals, as well as visitors
who stop
by from around the world to watch Henry roast. He is now well
into his
seventies and still roasts six days a week! He’s a proud
Armenian
man, who was raised in Lebanon. At age 12, he was pulled out of
school to learn roasting from his father. He has carried on this
family tradition and spent a lifetime honing his skills, passing
this knowledge onto his son Hrag, who now works alongside
him. These efforts have produced a legacy of great and unique
mainstay coffees. Henry’s coffees are not only great black but
also pack a powerful punch through milk-based drinks. Bella
Finca is a Henry’s number #1 seller and for good reason. It is
outstanding brewed black or makes one fantastic bold Italian
style espresso. I love its beautiful dark tones, richness, and full
bodied qualities along with its wonderful chocolate flavor notes!
Without a doubt, this a great choice for fans of a dark cup. This
is a must for all to brew. I recommend this with absolute
enthusiasm! |

Everyone knows that New York does everything big.
Dallis Bros. really hit the mark creating a big city espresso
that would be worthy of the Big Apple. Yes, it's big and bold,
just like the city. It has panache! It is unapologetic and
produces crema filled espresso shots that really pack a punch.
The sweet and smoky bittersweet chocolate notes are
delivered in a heavy body. It is great! One taste of this
classic espresso and you are sure to put this on your
go-to list in a New York minute! |

Espresso Novo is a great and momentous discovery! With
smooth notes of caramel, banana, and a nutty finish, this is one
of the most complex and remarkable espressos ever! Herb
Brodsky and his sons Jake and Joseph are a remarkable family.
To Herb every cup is like a song… a Bob Dylan song. He’s part
hitchhiking poet, part bohemian writer. Jake, a scientist of
coffee operations, obsesses on coffee perfection, getting primo
beans from his brother Joseph, their world-traveling sourcer.
They treat coffee like fine wine, so beautifully presented, even
their packaging looks like a fancy gift. There is good crema and
Karma in every sip of this amazing and tantalizing Espresso. |

This dark roasted velvety masterpiece from Massachusetts
roaster John Mahoney’s Atomic Café is an exotic mix of beans
sourced from Papua New Guinea (PA-poo-Y nyoo GIN-ee) and
Costa Rica. The mix is quite wonderful because it produces such
a rich yet clean and refreshingly smooth cup. The smokiness
never overpowers. Dark roast lovers rejoice! Brewed hot or cold,
it can be sipped all day long. It’s an east coast/ west coast
brokerage house customer favorite and one of mine too. |

Every coffee has a story and Big Truck Espresso is no
exception. Inspired by his
childhood memories, roaster Oliver Stormshak learned
to drive in his Grandpa
Joe's green 1955 Chevy Truck. As he grew into a man,
Grandpa Joe was a
mainstay in his life and has remained a great role model
who has inspired him
ever since. He taught him life lessons and the
importance of hard work. This has
helped make Oliver the great roaster he is today. This
commitment to excellence
rewarded Olympia with the 2013 Roaster Of
The Year Award. Oliver
and crew created Big Truck Espresso to be Olympia's
flagship espresso and it
does not disappoint. It's a classic, just like Grandpa Joe
and that 55 Chevy. It is
always great, memorable and consistent. A solid, big
bodied espresso with sweet
chocolate notes and a dense fruity finish. Big Truck is a
mix of beautiful organic
coffees that are often washed, honeyed or natural. They
change from season to
season but it is an espresso you can always count on to
deliver. Grandpa Joe
eventually sold the truck but the memories live on in Big
Truck Espresso. |

Barefoot has just the cure for the summer blues with
their Adventurous Drip Sampler Pack. This sampler
contains coffees that are brighter and fruitier. Perfect
for those of you that
sleepwalk comatose to your coffee machine in the

indecision. Snore...

real eye-opener. Like a DJ choosing a playlist,
Barefoot keeps things exciting with smaller
sampler 8 ounce bags from a lineup of their current
more complex and fruity seasonal drip coffees. It is a
nice opportunity to try a
few Barefoot offerings and see what you think. At the
very least, it will leave
you feeling well traveled without the jet lag. For those
that want to play it a bit more safe there is also a
Barefoot
Traditional 3 bag sampler which tend to have more
chocolate
notes, heavier mouth feels and are less complex.
These are really great as well. Try this or don't!
Whatever you do, just try
something different today! |

Bird Rock's signature,"Bird Rock Blend" has what it
takes to be a great and classic cup that I will now lean
on as a go-to favorite. I love how the chocolate tones
transform into a thick and gooey, candy-fudge-like
finish. Yum! The Sumatra and Ecuadorian beans are
wonderfully combined and orchestrated by roast
maestro Charles Patton, the 2012 Micro-Roaster of
the year. His commitment to excellence is
unwavering. He personally travels to origin,
conducting a world-wide search to select the specific
beans that will produce the flavor profile he plans to
create, then after returning home, Charles "dials it
in" through various test roasts and numerous
cuppings until he achieves that perfect balance and
harmonious tonality he sought and now has brought
to the cup. This robust, medium-dark roast is a stellar
offering! If you have not had Bird Rock yet, order this
and taste why the crew from La Jolla, California are
2012's top award winners. |

Ask anyone, and you will find that they never forget
their first. A memory from long ago that even today is
never far from my mind. Her name was Belle
Espresso, a friend brought her to my house one
evening, knowing that we should meet. He was right.
She had a medium body and looked just my type.
With a come hither look, I picked her up and carried
her to my coffee machine. I surrendered and closed
my eyes. I could not resist her aroma… Brandy,
Chocolate and Caramel and how lovely she looked
glistening with oil. I had to have her. Steam excitedly
shot from my machine wand as I pulled myself a shot!
As I brought Belle to my lips, I wondered how many
others knew her and if they felt the same about her,
as I did... It was at that moment I knew that coffee
was not just coffee, it was so much more and I would
never forget her. That beautiful Belle is Klatch’s Belle
Espresso and her memory will never fade away. |
