"El Alacran" Dark Roast

Dark/Vienna Roast

We are proud to present KLLR's first dark roast!

"El Alacran" is Spanish for "The Scorpion".  Why do we call it that?  This coffee is bold, wild, and gives a nice "sting" with every sip you take.  And it is sweet, so very sweet.  We taste notes of dark chocolate, pleasant pipe tobacco smoke, mulling spices, and cooked berries, and no matter how we prepare it, it is always a very delicious cup of coffee.

What makes our dark roast different than most commercial mass produced dark coffees?  It's how the coffee is roasted and the coffees we use.  Most commercial mass produced dark roasted coffees are roasted fairly fast and VERY dark, thus giving the coffees a burnt, bitter, and sometimes a popcorny-like flavor, and essentially all the coffees' inherent flavors are roasted away.  KLLR's "El Alacran" is roasted carefully and slowly, and it is dropped at just the right time, thus allowing the sugars in the coffee to fully develop and caramelize without unpleasant burnt and bitter tastes, but still giving the coffee that "sting" that dark roast drinkers love.

Blend:

,

Great Service! It has been a few months since I purchased my machine, but I absolutely love it. Initially I had some issues with damage from shipping, but Joe took care of it immediately so there were no problems. He also stayed on the phone with me for a long time the day I received my machine so I could get everything working properly. I highly recommend!

Espresso Outlet was friendly and had a very good price. I did not expect delivery before Christmas, however the Alexia arrived on Christmas eve.This is a high quality machine. I emailed a couple of questions to the owners, and my questions were answered within a few hours.They seem like nice people, with good service and high quality espresso machines.

Joe’s patience and knowledge made the decision making process for my first espresso maker so much easier. He’s quick to respond and super helpful. Pricing is competitive and shipping is quick. I won’t buy from anywhere else. Up next, the grinder!

We bought a Mini Vivaldi from them a little over a year ago and its still running professionally like a champ in our little cafe. They had the lowest price and it arrived quickly in perfect condition. And shipping was FREE!

Great customer service! Joe worked with me from purchasing a grinder to ultimately returning and changing to a different grinder. It’s a tough decision buying without seeing or using and the fact that a business is willing to work with their customers goes a long way with me. I would definitely recommend Joe and EspressoOutlet.
