A signature espresso drink and play on the London Fog, made with a single origin coffee from Turrialba, Costa Rica, roasted in-house to a light-to-medium profile with notes of nuttiness, baker's chocolate, and acidity. The espresso is pulled at a precisely measured 19 grams and combined with a house-made syrup, then finished with steamed milk textured to be silky smooth. The drink balances chocolatiness, sweetness, and a bergamot note from the Earl Grey in the syrup.
