Dave Lombardo's Double Kick – Costa Rica Dark Roast Coffee

Some coffees come with a little attitude. Dave Lombardo's Double Kick brings plenty. This official signature coffee from the legendary drummer is a high-altitude, single-origin Costa Rican coffee, dark-roasted for a bold cup that works as both espresso and drip coffee.

The flavor hits with rich chocolate and brown sugar, followed by a dash of citrus zest. If you want a dark roast with more going on than roast flavor alone, Double Kick is worth a listen. Or, more importantly, a taste.

What does Double Kick taste like?

Chocolate and brown sugar lead the profile, with citrus zest adding a contrasting note. These are tasting descriptions, not chocolate, sugar, or citrus added to the beans. Enjoy it on its own to get to know the coffee, then add milk or sweetener if that's your usual routine.

One coffee, two main ways to brew

Double Kick is made for espresso and also works as a bold drip coffee. For espresso, use a grind suited to your machine and adjust your recipe to taste. For drip, start with your usual coffee-to-water ratio so you have a familiar reference when trying the roast.

You don't have to own an espresso machine to enjoy Dave's signature coffee. A drip coffee maker and a recipe you like are a perfectly good starting point.
