Molasses, Orange Zest, Bittersweet Chocolate

Blackstrap | Espresso - Subscription

Our house espresso also makes a damn good drip coffee. Expect balanced, full bodied flavor that tastes great on its own or paired with milk.

This is our signature product. Blackstrap is always a blend of PNG Lamari, Brazil Minas, and Colombia Monserrate. This coffee was developed to be a sweet, complex, house espresso for New York City. As an espresso it tastes like brown sugar and tropical fruit. In a cortado, cappuccino, or a latte, it balances perfectly with milk to create a complex, sweet, and classic tasting specialty coffee. 

This coffee is our house espresso and drip coffee. 

Blackstrap is about 50% of all of the coffee that we sell!

    So weak!

    I remember having this blend at one of the NYC venues and loving the roast's strength and flavour. However, I made the mistake of ordering a 5lb bag to the UK and was so disappointed to receive yellowish beans that made super weak/lacklustre coffee (in both a bean-to-cup machine & a conventional filter).

    The customer service rep responded that their beans tend to roast on the lighter side, which may be true, but I'm still convinced that I got an under-roasted batch.

    People seem to love this blend but I def expect more punch for a medium-dark roast. Disappointing. I just wish La Colombe delivered to the UK!!!
