Nothing much new to add here, but a quote and a link to a great rant about the unchallenged rules of espresso.
Now after nearly a century we have had our espresso palette benchmarked around these coffees. We build blends using Brazils to attain a certain taste, that is just echoing the Italian styles and blends. If you weaned someone onto espresso using only single origins, never letting them taste traditional blends, and let them try to blend themselves would they reach immediately for the Brazil to provide their taste foundation?
