What is Espresso?

A strong coffee made by forcing nearly boiling water through tightly-packed, finely-ground coffee beans. It has a rich, oily texture and a strong, bitter flavor.

What does Espresso Taste Like?

Bitter

Bitter is one of the five main tastes. It has a sharp and pungent profile. Bitter is a naturally occurring flavor in many foods, including coffee, chocolate, bitter melon, and chicory. Bitter is used sparingly to accentuate the flavors around it and can be mellowed by other tastes in both savory and sweet dishes.

Ingredients

coffee powder

Coffee powder, more commonly known as instant coffee is made by one of two methods. The first is freeze drying liquid coffee and extracting the moisture. The second is by spraying the coffee into hot air and as it settles, the coffee dries and becomes a powder. Instant coffee is granulated, or powdered and has a dark brown color with a wonderfully chocolatey, floral, nutty and rich aroma. The flavor varies depending on the type of coffee bean and the roasting process. Water is added to the powder to create an instant cup of coffee.

water

Water is a substance and chemical compound made up of hydrogen and oxygen. It is clear, fluid, flavorless and odorless. Water is a necessity in nearly every aspect of life, including cooking, baking and hydrating the human body. Water can be served as a cold beverage, or at any temperature comfortable to the mouth and skin.
