Jacqmotte Intense




Old fashioned Dutch coffee brought back from Brussels by Chrissie. This is a robust but not aggressive coffee. At first I made it with three scoops, and this felt a little crude, so I softened it with milk. I reduced to 2 and 1/2 scoops, and started to appreciate the robust, old fashioned nature of the coffee. It's pretty straightforward  - a burnt roast with some awareness of dark chocolate, though mostly it is toast burnt to carbon that dominates.

There's little character or depth here, just a dark but drinkable everyday coffee. Off it to guests who like espresso.


Score:  3
Coffee roasts
