Chateaubriant, Devonport, Auckland. (May 1-12, 2012)

By

Chateaubriant is a genuine French cafe-pâtisserie and has a delightful supply of ‘specialités francaises’. This cafe is charming, with a warm European vibe; a cafe we would often drive to for an after breakfast coffee and croissant. With so many children and parents coming here it makes for a very fun experience. Their espresso coffee (we would normally order piccolos) is excellent.  Currently serving an organic Fairtrade blend (roasted by ‘Chaisso’, Devonport), deep and chocolatey, low acidity with some faint berry and citrus flavours, perfect for the early morning. Each cup is very well made by Yannic the owner and Genevieve the barista who take their time to care for what is being served and get it right. The croissants are the best I have had, so far, in the whole Auckland area (try all their breads- superb); and served by the ever charming Jo. A beacon of coffee and food illumination in the midst of Devonport!
Location: 87 Vauxhall Rd, Devonport, Auckland 0624, New Zealand

#Alternatywnie Specialty Coffee Poland

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.
