Tadesse Meskela - The Espresso Blend that is..
One of the interesting parts of roasting coffee is being able to experience the roast development of each different coffee origin. As it advances through the different stages of the roast, different smells and colours become apparent.

This understanding of the complex elements of each origin is then used to combine them to a composition required to produce a quality espresso blend.
