Your Favourite Espresso Blend

Excluding your own (for all you home roasters!)

Obviously excluding things like Illy etc...

What floats your (palette's) boat?

Hard to comment without naming specific companies but here goes:

I'm rather partial to the Continental blend from the Roast and Post Coffee Company
I also like Hasbean's espresso blend but prefer things a little darker. I just bought some green beans so I can roast it myself.

Dark is good. Dark is gooooooooooood.

I have only tried blends from 2 roasters, and my favourites are 1 from each: Hasbean's Espresso Blend, and Hill & Valley's Bourbon Espresso.
Interestingly 1 is somewhat darker roast than the other, but I would be hard pushed to split them, in terms of preference that is, quite different taste. Both are blends containing robusta in small ammounts, I like the extra bite
