peru, mikan is a washed caturra from cajamarca, peru, roasted by curious roo coffee roasters. the washed process keeps things clean and precise, letting the caturra variety express bright lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest upfront, with tropical fruit in the background and a winey quality that adds some complexity. milk and dark chocolate round out the finish, giving it body without heaviness. it suits filter brewing well, where those citrus and fruit notes have room to open up, though it can handle a well-dialed espresso if you prefer a shorter, more concentrated cup.

about curious roo coffee roasters

curious roo takes roasting seriously, and you can feel that in the way the coffee sits with you after the cup is done. chiswick isn't a neighbourhood that demands attention, which might be exactly why british grove works, quiet enough to focus, close enough to kew and the river to pull in people who actually want to slow down for a minute. this isn't a place chasing trends. the roasting operation shapes everything on the menu, so what you're drinking has a direct line back to decisions made here, in this building, by people who've thought hard about why a particular bean lands the way it does. local regulars have figured that out already. if you're in w4, the morning filter is the honest place to start.
