The espresso tends to be dialed in rather than dispensed, and the milk drinks are built to actually taste of coffee. Expect coffee treated as craft here: beans chosen with intent, ground to order, and pulled or poured by someone paying attention to the details. Brew methods beyond the standard latte are part of the point, from timed espresso to slow filter coffee.
