I-talian cafe

For those of you who care about such things: it tasted like a fairly long shot (as though the barista took a bathroom break at some point during the pull). It had the barest impression of crema - more like the faint Socratic recollection of crema wanting for maieutic assistance. The flavor profile successfully recreated a "Nyquil and vinegar" sensation, and the mouth feel was predominantly "orthodontic." Lingering in the finish were notes of cardboard, anxiety, and fermented Ramen.
