Find your flavour. Choose your calibre.
At BULLET Espresso, we take the guesswork out of your brew. Whether you're after a light, sharp hit or a bold, full-bodied cup, our intensity scale and roast profiles are here to help you choose the right coffee for your daily mission.
We rate every blend on a scale of 1 to 5, based on flavour strength, roast depth, and overall impact in the cup.
The Intensity Scale Explained
Our intensity scale reflects how bold the coffee tastes — not just caffeine strength. It considers:
-
Roast depth
-
Flavour body and richness
-
Overall mouthfeel and finish
It’s a guide to help you find the right brew for how you like to drink it — whether that’s long black, flat white, or plunger.
The Range
22 CALIBER — The Sniper
🔸 Intensity: 2/5
🔸 Roast: Light to Medium
A sharp, clean, and high-energy blend with notes of plum, citrus, and chocolate. Best for long blacks and lighter espresso.
303 CALIBER — The Sharpshooter
🔸 Intensity: 3/5
🔸 Roast: Medium to Dark
Smooth but bold, with flavours of caramel, stone fruit, and cocoa. Your go-to tactical brew — balanced and dependable.
50 CALIBER — The Detonator
🔸 Intensity: 5/5
🔸 Roast: Dark
A full-bodied, heavy-hitting roast with deep chocolate, roasted nut, and smoky caramel notes. Not for the faint of heart.
Single Origin — The Specialist
🔸 Intensity: 3/5
🔸 Roast: Medium
Colombian Popayán — refined, clean, and precise. With tasting notes of chocolate, tropical fruit, and caramel. A single origin for those who like to know what they’re brewing.
Decaf — Blank Rounds / The Decoy
🔸 Intensity: 3/5
🔸 Roast: Medium to Dark
Mexican decaf with rich caramel flavour. All the taste, none of the kick — perfect for off-duty sipping.
The Reserve — Premium Hot Chocolate
🔸 Not on the intensity scale, but still packs a punch.
A smooth, velvety cocoa blend with a deep chocolate flavour and a balanced sweetness. Your tactical treat when coffee’s off-duty.
Not sure which roast suits your style? Here’s a quick guide:

-
Dark Roast = bold, heavy-bodied, lower acidity
