About us
How we make our coffee.
It starts with the cherry. Ours are picked by hand, one by one, when they are fully ripe, because only ripe fruit has the sugars that give the cup its sweetness. The green ones are left on the branch for the next pass.
The fruit is then washed off, the beans are dried until they hold about eleven percent moisture, and they rest until we roast them. We roast in small batches every week, grind each cup separately, and brew it in front of you.

Reviews
Best latte I have had in the city, and the service was quick and friendly even with a queue at the door.
Very comfortable place. The music is at a reasonable volume and the staff check on you without bothering you.
The cold brew is excellent and the croissants are fresh. It fills up around seven, so go a little earlier.
Prices are fair for the quality. Two coffees and a brownie cost less than one coffee at the place down the street.
The pistachio croissant is worth the trip on its own. I have brought three friends and all three came back.
They remembered my order on the second visit. Small thing, but it is why I keep coming back.
Warm light, wooden tables and no noise. It is the only place near the office where I can actually think.
Asked for oat milk and they made the latte art anyway. Whoever is behind the machine knows what they are doing.
The frappé is blended fresh, not poured from a bottle. You can taste the difference straight away.
Went in for a coffee and stayed two hours. Nobody rushed me and the second cup was just as good as the first.
