ever since dismas smith took top honors as america's best barista at the recent scaa contest, i've been hearing more and more good things about the espresso blend his employer roasts, espresso paladino.
dismas placed a respectable 6th at the world barista championship in norway last month. at both events he made his specialty drink with zoka coffee's paladino.
i've been drinking a lot of west coast coffee lately -- orsini, vivace, caffe d'arte -- and i'd been meaning to try even more, like vita and ladro, which now serves fair trade coffee. but i think i'm going to move the paladino up my list.
look for a review in the next 2 or 3 weeks. . .
