“Nice coffee shop in the Memorial Union. However, I wasn't too impressed with the espresso, I did see the beans in the grinder hopper were oily - this indicates a dark roast. I am personally not a fan of dark roasts as you lose origin characteristics and risk a bitter / smoky taste. Quite better than Starbucks though (Starbucks espressos are just disgusting, period). I know, dark roast is what most people are accustomed to. Until they try a medium roast and suddenly a whole burst of new flavors hit the palate (fruity, acidic, walnut, chocolaty, etc.). And I also know most people forego the basic espresso and go for lattes, cappuccinos and other drinks. For milk drinks, a dark roast is just fine as it brings a good color contrast. I still wish more places would go with medium roasts. I tried Joe and the Juice in Palo Alto and their espresso was tasty - sweet, fruity, creamy.”
