I’d say 4 weeks from opening rather than roast date, I find our espresso keeps improving up to and beyond 2 weeks from roast and starts to decline a bit after about 6 weeks. Something to do with low airflow in the roasting I think. We rest the coffee for 2 weeks in the shop before we use it for drinks. The retail coffee is dispatched fresh.
