Old Rock Cafe, Sudbury, ON, Canada

By Anonymous

Sunday morning and we find ourselves at Old Rock Cafe in Sudbury. A small roaster/cafe that by first glance seems to offer up to 45 different coffee roasts! I hope to return for another visit to find out exactly how many roasts they offer and what types. Nonetheless, lots to choose from! 
We had a single shot espresso with the same amount of milk; a kind of Cortado-like drink. The Barista tells me he is the son of the Master Roaster - his Mom- lovely! The espresso is a blend of 4 coffee regions, as far as I can remember him saying: Yemen, Brazil, Ethiopia and ?... Regardless of the blend, it was made with care, with a predominant barley taste, aromas of earth and grasses abound, a thin-body coffee - leaving an aftertaste of cigarette and ash. It was unique to my tastes and palette. 
Location: 212 Minto St, Sudbury, ON P3E 3G9, Canada

We are in Szczecin, Poland, seated comfortably at Alterntywnie cafe, having an excellent and delightful espresso. This particular blend is a combination of 75% Brazilian and 25% Peruvian beans, pulled as a ristretto resulting in a thick sweetly acidic flavor profile. The ambiance of the cafe is incredibly pleasant, creating an inviting atmosphere for every sip. The staff at Alterntywnie cafe are friendly and attentive, ensuring that our coffee experience is nothing short of exceptional. It's wonderful to witness the burgeoning coffee culture in Poland, and this cafe in Szczecin is a true gem. #Alternatywnie al. Wojska Polskiego 35/u3, 70-473 Szczecin, Poland  https://altcoffee.pl/

Eleven Speed Coffee Roasters

Eleven Speed Coffee Roasters Victoria, BC, Canada https://www.elevenspeedcoffee.ca We bought this online and had it shipped across 5 provinces for $6. We are very happy with the quality, the fresh smell and uniqueness. As an aeropress, we ground 25 grams and poured 3 oz of 201 water to let it stand for 25 seconds, than press firmly. The aeropress coffee with milk is very sweet chocolate-ly and balanced. Even at 9 days after roasting the coffee has an unbelievable freshness to it. Soon we will try it as an espresso and let you know how it goes! update: Espresso was just as unique. I can't overstate the freshness of this coffee and how Eleven Speed shipped our coffee fresh rather then whatever was available.
