A coffee fundi suggested we stop over for a cuppa. Had offered a fresh brew using old beans to him and was told that it was tantamount to sacrilege.
Nothing beats a fresh roast for full depth of flavour he said.
Was midday, in the middle of a heatwave, the thought of a hot brew did not do it appeal to me.
Arrived there, greeted upon entering by friendly staff, needless to say, the air was permeated with freshly roasted coffee, a delight on the senses.
Sat down near the aircon unit in one of the cubicles and discussed our options. Francois, the owner joined as and clarified my choices between an Iced Coffee versus a Cold Brew process. Elaborated further on how the cold brew process works, the beans used and so on.
Was very interesting indeed. Cold brew it was and very pleasant drinking, fresh coffee without the heat.
As for the shop, well laid out, feet passed the coffee and cakes enroute to the seating area, several content customers around, new ones arriving all the time. Was pleasantly surprised, location is a little tucked away in some side streets but well worth the visit, reasonably priced menu and coffee beans with a good variety on offer.
Will certainly be going back to try some other bean and roast combinations.
If you get lost, just follow your nose.
