Espresso is rarely a rushed drink in terms of how fast people will drink it. In Italy and France, people will usually sit down and enjoy it. In my home country of ukraine it's usually paired with a glass of water so you can chase it down and enjoy it longer.

Funny that my people use chasers for coffee, but not vodka lol.

Relax buddy

The darker you roast beans, the more caffeine is eliminated from the bean. Lighter roasted latin coffees will have a slightly higher caffeine content then your usual extra bold italian/french roasts. The oil being brought out just means it's been roasted for long enough to expel oils that were inside of it in the first place, nothing to do with a higher caffeine content.

Scholars maintain the true meaning was lost thousands of years ago.
