| - Ok. I'm glad there is an independent roaster that is in the region and that runs this cafe, and the staff are nice. And yes, they have all the fancy coffee making gadgets and know how to use them. However, this is a problem.
Their coffee needs some work!!
Not the preparation or the service, that is fine. But the actual roasted bean simply tastes 'off' to me. I have tried espresso, multiple roasts brewed any conceivable way, and brewed their beans at home. Every time I get a slightly rancid taste reminiscent of wet sock, leaves, and fruit cake. This coffee is simply no good.
And in case you are wondering, yes, I've had good coffee, and been to tastings at Intelligentsia, Ritual, and 49th Parallel among others. So I know good coffee, or perhaps BAD coffee. To be honest, I'd rather go anywhere else than drink this. This presents a quandary, I'd rather support a local roaster, but cannot do so when they consistently serve such an inferior product! Step up your game guys! Get some better quality beans!
