neon espresso is a washed blend from dogwood coffee's northeast roastery, combining beans from ethiopia and colombia. the washed process keeps things clean and bright, which shows in the cup: expect lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest alongside jasmine and floral aromatics. it's a lighter, more tea-like style of espresso rather than a heavy, chocolatey one. pull it as a straight shot or short americano to keep those citrus and floral notes intact. if you're dialing it in, lean toward slightly lower brew temperatures, around 90 to 93 celsius, to avoid flattening the brightness.
