Tonys Espresso Noir is a dark roasted coffee designed specifically for espresso. With a natural sweetness, this is a great roast to test out your new semi-auto if you like a dark americano or shot. With that said, Espresso Noir can also develop a delicious latte or cappuccino, so be sure to try it in a variety of recipes. Important to note is that we do not recommend this coffee for superautos as it is rather oily, and can lead to buildup in your superautomatic espresso machines grinder. Standalone grinders can be easily cleaned after using this roast for a while.
