Lake Street Espresso

This blend of South and Central American comes together to produce a balanced, creamy shot with a full mouth feel and subtle pomegranate notes with a pure and powerful finish.

Big Shoulders Coffee's Lake Street Espresso showcases pomegranate notes, a striking flavor profile for espresso. The roaster's choice to highlight this bright, tart fruit character suggests a deliberate approach to capturing acidity and complexity in the cup. Pomegranate-forward espressos typically feature pronounced fruitiness that can cut through milk or shine in straight shots, depending on extraction and brew method.
