Blech, the initial smell is strong of fake coffee, like an overly sweet chemical additive in say a McDonald's Mocha Latte (where any espresso is buried under all sorts of garbage). The initial few puffs were not as syrupy as I expected, but there was nothing good here. A few minutes later it gave way to a dry cheap taste that reminded me of no flavor I wanted to smoke. I'll likely not finish it all for fear of a sore throat.

At it's best the espresso taste was closest to old wet coffee grinds left in a filter for a few days (that dank stale smell).

As someone who really knows good espresso (I make a proffesional cup each day), this was a sad proxy. To think tobacco can taste like coffee might be the same as expecting real fruit taste from a strawberry car freshner.

I don't know what this is but its not espresso or coffee for that matter. Smells strange and does not taste very good, This is the only coffee tobacco I have had but I am certain there are better ones out there.

There was a funky smell that came along with this bag, I'm not sure what it was but it definitely wasn't espresso. Some kind of gross almost rotten smell.....

As Aromatics go it's one of the lighter smokes I've ever had and I found the topping to be nonexistent (despite the horrible smell) with only light tobacco flavor noticeable.

I might press this into a plug and let it sit for a few years to see if it becomes anything worthwhile, but for now I only needed one bowl to know this one is not for me.
