Black Dog Espresso is roasted to produce a caramelly sweet espresso with a pleasing finish.
Coffee Roast: • A blend of Guatemalan, Ethiopion, Mexican and Peruvian
Tasting Note: walnut, dark chocolate, caramel
Walnut
This coffee carries a warm, slightly earthy nuttiness reminiscent of fresh walnuts. The flavor is subtly bitter, with a dry, toasty quality that adds depth and complexity to the cup. It’s not overly sweet or overpowering—think of the grounding richness you get from roasted walnuts in a fall-inspired dessert or artisan bread.
Dark Chocolate
A smooth, velvety bitterness with a touch of richness defines the dark chocolate notes. This adds a bold, luxurious layer to the coffee, much like a high-quality chocolate bar with 70%+ cocoa. It balances the walnut’s earthiness and pairs beautifully with the roast’s natural oils, offering an indulgent, satisfying body.
Caramel
The caramel note adds a welcomed sweetness to the profile. It’s buttery and mellow, reminiscent of golden, slow-cooked sugar—think burnt toffee or the top of a crème brûlée. This sweetness rounds out the nuttier and more bitter elements, giving the coffee a smooth, approachable finish.
Recommended Brew Methods
✔️ Pour Over – Highlights caramel sweetness and smooth chocolate finish
✔️ French Press – Brings out bold body and nutty richness
✔️ Drip Machine – Easy and consistent for everyday sipping
Water Temperature
💧 91–96°C (195–205°F)
Use hot—but not boiling—water to draw out the full range of flavors without over-extracting bitterness.
Grind Size Guide
🔹 Pour Over – Medium
🔹 French Press – Coarse
🔹 Drip – Medium
Tip: A consistent grind ensures even extraction and a smoother cup.
Brew Time
⏱ Pour Over – 2.5–3.5 minutes
⏱ French Press – 4–5 minutes
⏱ Drip – Machine-controlled (ensure ~5 minutes per full pot)
Balanced brew times help bring forward the chocolate and caramel notes.
Water Quality
💧 Always use filtered water for the cleanest taste and to let the subtle walnut and caramel tones shine.
Serving Suggestion
🥛 This roast pairs beautifully with a splash of milk, cream, or oat milk—enhancing the caramel and chocolate while softening the nuttiness.
