Rainforest Espresso 5LB

Drinking this straight as a shot actually works, which surprised me since most espresso this cheap tastes bitter. It's genuinely creamy and smooth enough that I stopped reaching for the milk, and the 5lb bag lasts me forever.

I usually need milk to soften espresso but this one is creamy enough to drink straight, which surprised me for a 5lb bag at this price. Smooth from the first sip with zero of that bitter bite I get from cheaper beans.

The crema on this espresso is ridiculous—thick and golden every single shot. A 5LB bag feels like a commitment, but the smooth, almost creamy finish makes it way too easy to brew another cup.
