I feel like a child. I finally understand.
Actually Caribou has an Espresso Roast, which is a medium-dark roast. Which can then be used to make Espresso, or just be brewed for coffee, which we do sometimes. So for us it is both a method of delivery, and also a roast. We do this to have a dedicated flavor of Espresso in our espresso drinks. It would be odd to have a wildly varied flavor of espresso shot depending on what roast/blend of coffee was in the machine that day. Sure, you can put Guatemala through the espresso machine, but it will taste very different than if you put French Roast through.
And take note- Latte and Mocha are two different drinks. As is cappuccino. If you walk into my store and order a “Mocha Latte Cappuccino” I will have NO IDEA WTF you are talking about..
Also.. notice…
thank you

11. Codependency: Caring about, and assuming responsibility for another person – beyond that which is healthy and legitimate – and to the detriment of your own needs.
