Curator's Notes

Let this dark roast shine a light on your mornings! This Seattle classic uses coffees from Africa, Latin America, and Indonesia to create a complex, full-bodied, and versatile blend. It pulls a rich, dark shot; the perfect way to illuminate your day.

Roaster's Notes

Thick and rich with hints of berry, chocolate and spice, Lighthouse Roaster's Espresso Blend manages flawless depth of character without a trace of bitterness. Our most popular blend, this is the coffee we use in-house for our espresso. Our Espresso Blend brings together coffees from Africa, Latin America, and Indonesia to create a complex, full-bodied and versatile blend that is perfectly suited for any brewing method: drip coffee, pour over, French press, and (of course) espresso. As a brewed coffee, it is full bodied and smooth, with a touch of port wine acidity and a sweet finish. As an espresso, it has a pronounced toffee note, creamy body, a touch of cherry, and lots of dark chocolate in the finish. If you are new to Lighthouse, this is a good introduction to our coffees.

"We drank this espresso blend as a french press. It made for a lovely, complex dark roast. "

"I usually don't love a super dark roast, but on a very fine grind, this one is nice. It's bright, if an intense dark roast can be called that, and can be calmed down with some cream. "

"I did not enjoy this coffee. I was expecting something sweet and creamy based on the description and it tasted rather acidic and tobacco-y. I could barely get through one cup. "

"This blend is rather oily as the reviewer below stated, but that's to be expected with an espresso blend. However, there is not the bitterness that is to be expected from an espresso. Instead, it's just rich & smooth. I love this blend"

"Truly enjoyed this coffee. Very rich. Automatic espresso machine. Wonderful as a shot. Enjoyed it with half and half no sugar. No bitterness. Very smooth. "
JONATHAN 09/24/2017

"I've had many dark roasts before and all had a bitter end note that I had to cut with sugar. This dark blend, however, did not. It has all the dark roast full-bodied flavors with no bitterness. This has been the best dark roast I've had. I use the pour over method and for espresso. "

"Ended up getting a bag of this in my sampler box by surprise. Lighthouse is right down the street from where I live, so they're my go-to. If you get it real fresh then it's a great brew, though it's a bit bitter sometimes. Extracts fantastically from my breville 870xl, is kind of my gold standard."

" This coffee is a deep, dark delicious blend. Slight notes of chocolate. It could've had a deeper complexity to it, but is still very delicious. "

★★★★★
"Brewed it in an espresso machine. This dark roast espresso blend surprised me with a very smooth cup of americano. "
JOHN 03/14/2017
★★★★★
"Oh snap! This one was delicious! Brewed with an aeropress, the rich/deep chocolate flavors really came out and made for a deliciously warming cup of coffee. Perfect when paired with something vaguely sweet (or chocolatey!). Will buy this one again."
