Title: *NOT* a Dark Roast! *NOT* an Espresso Roast. More like Medium; not flavorful.
Review: I bought this coffee expecting a dark roast to use in my espresso machine. I know it's an italian roast but it's much more medium to light than other italian roasts I've had. The color of the beans is similar to the top of the bag (a medium brown), not oily at all (in fact, they look completely dry). Whether this is normal or not for this roast, I don't know.All the other italian, and dark/full-bodied roasts I've had have been much darker, bordering on blackish, and have at least some oil on the bean surface.This coffee brews extremely light as an espresso. I'd say it's nutty and a bit sweet as well. Lacks depth & complexity. It is smooth, but so is water. There are no of those darker-roast flavors (smoky, chocolate, toast, etc.) or heartiness.If you're a fan of espresso, french roast, sumatra, and other bold/dark-roasts, this coffee is not for you. I wish I could return this.
