From Ex Animo

A smooth, approachable espresso with low acidity and a clean, lingering sweetness. Versatile enough to shine as a shot or complement milk-based drinks.

Ex Animo Hooked Espresso is a signature blend curated by Revolver Coffee, designed to highlight the foundational characteristics of beans sourced from South America and East Africa. By combining origins from these two distinct regions, the blend aims to achieve a balanced profile defined by dark chocolate, caramel, and vanilla notes. Because this coffee is specifically roasted for espresso preparation, it emphasizes a low-acidity experience, prioritizing a smooth, heavy mouthfeel over the bright, citrus-forward profiles often associated with East African single origins.

When evaluating the nuances of such a blend, drinkers may find it helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better identify the specific sugar-browning and cocoa-based descriptors present in the cup. While espresso blends often lean toward comfort-focused, sweet profiles, the inclusion of East African components adds a layer of complexity to the base of South American chocolate and caramel tones.
