Yeah, it might benefit leaving it for a week to let it calm down. Freshly roasted beans are always more volatile although I wouldn't expect to end up tasting like a standard Italian espresso though as SM flavour description is for hazelnut/almonds/banoffee/creamy.

Yeah, i wasn't expecting anitalian flavour, that was a silly way to express it. This RB, just has a weird flavour, that I've tasted in hipster places, that I don't like. I wish I could put a finger on what it is. Maybe it's the 'hazelnut'.
I love flavour, my favourite bean recently has been the arabica from happy donkey; of which the flavours were delicious. https://www.happydonkey.co.uk/250g-sumatra-mocha-coffee-beans.html

I've had some really flavourful italian stuff.
I can't put my finger on what it is I don't like (becasue I'm uncouth) but there is a certain flavour to it, that just isn't pleasant for me.
It would make a nice coffee with milk.
It was only roasted 2 days ago, could this be reason. Does it need to sit?
