Man… I had forgotten how massive this place is. While parking around here is a pain, I figured it had been far too long since my last visit. It is always enjoyable to visit a roaster directly, and seeing 4 different batches of beans getting roasted simultaneously behind me is a bit of a thrill.
The coffee I went with was a Brazilian Sao Jose and I was a little surprised. Normally when a cafe offers a “special” coffee it is highlighting a light-med roast coffee, but this one could quite easily be used as a house blend. That said, while it is not industrial, it is little disappointing to have the flavours so overwhelmed.
Next when I ordered it as a mac, asking for only a little milk as always, it was still quite overpowering (and served with a bit too much milk).
As a cafe, looking at the whole package (coffee, food, atmosphere, service), I can heartily recommend that people try it out. As a coffee destination, I don’t think they are aiming to move beyond a milk based coffee cafe, and if they are ok with that, so am I. It does mean that’ll likely be a while before I come back again.
