El Horreya Roastery

your first sip of el horreya's cairo specialty espresso hits different than anything you've had from egypt. the beans carry that distinctive nile delta terroir, earthy, almost mineral, with a sweetness that builds slowly on your tongue. they're roasting egyptian coffee for egyptians, not chasing european approval. the crema holds thick and golden, releasing notes of dark chocolate and something floral you can't quite place. this is cairo in a cup, unapologetic and bold.
