Worst Dopio Ristretto Espresso I have had. I use many of the local Starbucks as well as others in the area. It was definitely too hot, very burnt cardboard taste, bitter, thin/watery like I'd expect an Americana to be. The shot also looked to be a more long pull vs. a short one. I've never scorched my tongue on a first sip of espresso, this one got me good.

Although I donât know how I feel whether itâs discriminated for being a man and not being acknowledged while a woman is instantly acknowledged, or if I just was wearing my...
