One of my favorite beans
For espresso, this has a lovely balance of dark chocolate & some sweetness but enough of a darker edge to make it more complex & interesting. It’s still a relatively dark roast; more medium dark than medium.
Roaster Central
Hi Evan, Thanks for the review! The Parioli is certainly one of our more popular Italian style blends, we're glad you're enjoying it.

A nuanced, rich Medium Dark Roast
This is listed as a Medium Roast but I beg to differ; it’s more Medium Dark with some visible oil on the beans. Nonetheless, it’s an excellent bean if you are looking for dark chocolate & layers of nuanced vanilla & nutty tones. At 9 BAR & 93C it has no bitterness, just a lovely lingering finish. Fantastico!
Awesome beans
Malcolm at Essrotec recommended these beans to me and they are awesome. Will definitely be ordering more.
Great Coffee
This surprised me with the taste, just purchased more bags, medium tasting with great flavors.
