Lunar Espresso Blend Original Coffee | Barsonist

Lunar Espresso Blend is a medium dark roast for the drinker who wants bold richness without bitterness, whether the coffee goes through an espresso machine, a drip brewer or a moka pot.

What goes into it

Built on the chocolate richness of Guatemala and the caramel sweetness of a natural Brazil. Good Brothers brought the original back after testing other versions, and sources fresh crop coffees through the year, so the origins may change with harvests while the profile stays the same.

In the cup

Milk chocolate, buttery caramel and toffee in a silky, creamy body. It is dark enough to give the depth of a traditional dark roast without masking the coffee underneath.

On espresso

Originally made for espresso, it pulls dense, syrupy, sweet shots with enough structure to cut through milk.

Roast and resting

Third-wave medium dark, with 15.3 percent weight loss, dropped around 35 degrees after first crack. Rest it 7 to 14 days for espresso and 7 days for drip. The roaster drank it as early as 12 hours old and was still pleased.

What is a good all-purpose espresso blend? Lunar Espresso Blend Original is a medium dark roast with milk chocolate, caramel and toffee that works on espresso, drip, French press and moka pot. It has the body to stand up to milk and the sweetness to be enjoyed black.

Selected for home bars and kitchens that want one dependable coffee for every brew method.
