Received a couple of bags of Olympia Big Truck yesterday. I won a "buy one get one free" coffee gift from Olympia Coffee on the HB Wish List contest. First off thanks to Olympia for the gift and Dan for running the contest. I tried the blend in my Gaggia Espresso. Lots of chocolate with a really big mouth feel - read very full bodied. Wasn't able to get much in the way of fruit out of it but still not bad for my little Gaggia. I have a new La Spaziale VII coming in today and am anxious to see the difference in taste between the two machines. Anyways thanks again for the contest and the coffee.

Cheers

Ian

I always amazes me about those described fruity notes. To me, a espresso should just be mouth...

But it's me, a non american Swed... :P
