Single Orgin for espresso or blends only?\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\ r\n\r\nwww.rocketcoffeeroasters.com

What do you mean by your question?\r\nSorry, I did not understand you...

I'm wondering whether people think/believe that a single origin coffee has the ability to produce outstanding espresso or if an "espresso blend" is the better result. \r\n\r\nMy personal opinion? I have found some incredibly good single origins that are totaly suited for espresso, however I don't think they are ready to play an important role in the American coffee scene. Yet.

what single origin?

Glenn,\r\n\r\nI don't understand your question. Are you asking "what is a single origin?" or "what single origins do I like for espresso?".

Sorry for being unclear. I mean, what is a sibgle origin.\r\n\r\nI do not know too much about coffee, this is why I am asking.

Single Origin *UPDATE*\r\n\r\nJust received our shipment of "New Crop Costa Rican Monte' Crisol SHB"\r\nRoasted to a Full City level this coffee is superb as a single origin espresso! Life is GOOD!

\r\n\r\nSorry triple, but I do not understand, what is a single origin coffee?\r\nIs this the name of coffee brand, like Illy or Lavazza coffee etc.? Or is this the method of coffee beans processing? or something else....

Glenn..Single Origin is a coffee from one specific growing region and usually one plantation or estate. Not a blend of different coffees from say Brazil or Colombia.\r\n\r\nIf you are using a blend from a particular roaster (Lavazza), they may be using a Central American along with a South American and maybe an Indo...who knows? Each roaster uses their own blending formulas. A Single Origin like my Costa Rican Monte Crisol will find it's way into one of my blends.\r\n\r\nHope this helps.

\r\n\r\nI think single origin espresso has a better taste and aroma. True coffee lovers will take any opportunity to try a new blend, of course, but single origin has something unique...
