I got introduced to espresso back in college, mostly during late-night study sessions and early mornings when sleep wasn't really an option. Ever since then, espresso has kind of stuck with me. Even now, years later, I still look forward to that strong, bold cup that actually feels like real coffee.
I bought this hoping to recreate that at home, and it definitely delivers a strong, authentic espresso flavor. The grind is right, the aroma hits you as soon as it brews, and the coffee is full-bodied and intense. That said, for my personal routine it's a bit too strong for everyday drinking. I find myself reaching for something slightly lighter most days. But if you love bold, dark espresso and don't mind that extra intensity, you'll probaly really enjoy this one. It clearly knows its audience.
