A long finish is part of the established description of Fuzzy Monkey Raging Ape. This South American coffee blend is roasted to a dark Vienna style, with dark chocolate, caramel and fruit among its tasting references. Its espresso emphasis gives the blend a practical role for drinkers seeking a darker shot without assigning an undisclosed country-by-country recipe.

Judge the lingering finish before making a large latte
Choose a dose that fits your espresso basket and begin with a beverage yield close to twice that weight. Let a small sip cool and notice whether the chocolate-like finish remains pleasant after swallowing. A lingering taste is not automatically balanced, so refine grind or yield if the shot ends dry or harsh.
Once the straight espresso suits you, test it with a measured milk addition. Increase milk gradually until the drink reaches your preferred balance. If using another brewer, select its matching preparation and establish a separate recipe; the word espresso does not prevent a press or filter experiment with this blend.
Does Vienna specify an Austrian coffee origin?
It is a roasting-style term here. The listed growing region is South America, without individual countries or farms identified. Raging Ape is the blend name, while bag size and preparation are separate ordering choices. A new harvest or component ratio is not established by the available record.

A measured starting recipe
For espresso, use a dose suited to your basket. An 18 g dose with a 36 g beverage yield is a useful 1:2 starting ratio. Adjust grind size to balance sweetness, acidity and finish. Weigh the output instead of relying on crema volume; keep the dose fixed while dialing in, then test a longer or shorter yield.
More preparation and product questions
What roast profile is listed?

How do I adjust strength without losing balance?
Change the coffee-to-water ratio when the flavor is balanced but the cup is too weak or concentrated. Use grind adjustments when the problem is extraction, keeping dose and water quantity constant for comparison.
Should I judge the coffee only while piping hot?
Taste again as the cup cools toward a comfortable drinking temperature. Sweetness, acidity, body and finish may become easier to distinguish before you decide how to adjust the next brew.
How should I store the coffee?
Keep it sealed away from heat, light and moisture. Grind whole beans shortly before brewing; keep ground coffee tightly closed between uses to limit exposure to air.
