Pulled a couple of nice shots of this today. Nice full body and great Crema. Had a smoky Seatle Style taste to me. I bet it would hold up great to milk drinks. The roast was on the light side. Next batch will be roasted a little darker.

Mano Negra is the shiznit.
Next notch above and a true labor of espresso love: our Beso Espresso (TM) blend. A true knockout.

I concur. The Spanish Kiss is all that.

I just roasted a half pound a little darker, with just a glisten of oil!!!
It smells great. Looking forward to tasting it.

Any comments on how this does in a press pot would be appreciated! :tu

Once I work through my 2 bags of Beso, I will try the Mano.
I have never had the success with crema and overall flavor as I have had recently with the Beso, so I look forward to expanding my horizons.
Norman rocks well.

Have not done it in a press pot yet. I will let you know when I do.
The darker roast is the bomb!!! Thick crema and lots of body. It takes on a little sweetness when roasted darker. This blend is a winner!!!

Sounds delicious. I have been impressed with every bean I have bought from Norman. Great stuff. I really need to get a mazzo mini and an espresso machine. Right now "just" french press (which I love) and a moka pot. Will have to do for awhile.
:D
Thanks for the review. Cheers.
