I was on the hunt for temporary beans while my regular supplier is out, these beans did exceptionally well - all my settings work without adjustment, and quality is really good. Classical expresso receipt works well for them - 9 bars, 28 seconds extraction and you get nice creamy texture, and what more importantly - great gentle taste without any extra notes, and I do like aftertaste - it just coffee, no bitterness or anything of this sort. That is surprising because best were roasted in March , 5 months from date of opening. Overall I'm pleased.
