Description
 

An intense, sweet aroma of brandy, chocolate and caramel as well as a smooth taste and understated complexity. Described by coffee review as "crisply pungent yet caramelly sweet."

Our Belle is the highest rated espresso blend with a 94 points by coffee expert Kenneth Davids of Coffee Review. Ken tried 40 espressos and rated over 30 espresso blends, placing Belle on top.

Davids described the espresso by Klatch Coffee as: "Intense aroma: brandy, chocolate, caramel. In the small cup medium in body but smooth in mouthfeel, crisply pungent yet caramelly sweet, with a tightly knit, understated complexity: brandy, caramel, cedar and flowers, hints of which persist in the roundly rich finish. Masters milk with a gentle, brandied chocolate authority."

Kudos on your excellent coffee January 4, 2012
Reviewer: Jordan Ray from Ontario, CA  
Belle Espresso struck me right away by having the most wonderful aroma!  ... You should have seen my face light up when I got a whiff of the fresh grounds at home!  That moment was rivaled only by pulling the shot right after: perfect 3 shade crema, deep flavor, warm chocolate undertones; needless to say it was the best cup I have had the pleasure of drinking in a while. It was as flavorful as it was both visually appealing and aromatic.

Klatch Coffee Espresso Roast November 7, 2011
Reviewer: Brandt  
Mr. Perry-
I don't think people get enough positive feedback in the world.  I have to say that I've had the espresso roasts from all the big boys in specialty coffee (Intelly, Stumptown, Illy, 49th etc.)- and yours is my new favorite. Apart from Black Cat, I've switched to mostly single origins (or my own blends which I roast myself), because people tend to shut the roaster off before they see billows of smoke when roasting the SOs. Thank you for figuring out that burning the crap out of your beans, while traditional, makes espresso worse, and especially for Belle Espresso's obvious attention to detail. Massively good blend.

Versatile and smooth February 25, 2011
Reviewer: Ryan Niehaus from Farmington, NM United States  
A wonderful espresso to pair with milk or go solo.  I use it in lattes most often and it is very consistent and delicious.  A favorite!!

World Class February 24, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Austin, TX United States  
Sweet, rich, and complex with a nice round feeling.  Not much citrus compared to the standard espresso beans from other notable roasters, which I actually consider a plus.

beautiful Belle December 2, 2010
Reviewer: Professor Peaberry from San Francisco, CA  
Ask anyone, and you will find that they never forget their first. A memory from long ago that even today is never far from my mind. Her name was Belle Espresso, a friend brought her to my house one evening, knowing that we should meet. He was right. She had a medium body and looked just my type. With a come hither look, I picked her up and carried her to my coffee machine. I surrendered and closed my eyes. I could not resist her aroma… Brandy, Chocolate and Caramel and how lovely she looked glistening with oil. I had to have her. Steam excitedly shot from my machine wand as I pulled myself a shot! As I brought Belle to my lips, I wondered how many others knew her and if they felt the same about her, as I did... It was at that moment I knew that coffee was not just coffee, it was so much more and I would never forget her. That beautiful Belle is Klatch's Belle Espresso and her memory will never fade away.
