Monsoon Malabar

I make espresso with this; the monsooning process removes any hint bitterness and the dark roast gives a wonderful aftertaste. As beans it keeps well too; it's so fresh it needs degassing in the supplied bag for a week then I decant into a series of smaller containers. Stored like this it's still been good even after a year and means I can buy in bulk; a kilo gives makes around 70 double espressos so it's good value too. Lost touch after Roaring Stag stopped selling on a certain third party platform (known for it's fees!) but grateful to find them again as I've not found anything I prefer more.

This is a definite favourite, it goes perfectly with our weekend continental style breakfasts.

I bought this for a change, thinking I would not like it as much as the Brazilian or Guatemalan I have been buying from Roaring Stag for the last 2 years. I was also a bit concerned that my grinder could clog up as it has done with other darker roasts. After the initial shock to my taste buds (just because it is different), I have come to really like it. I drink it as a cappuccino. I have weakened it slightly from my Guatamalan dose, and it works beautifully. I will buy it again. Dare to be different!
