by escape - lab à café · montreal, canada
you'll taste stone fruit before winey. this is pink bourbon #3, a washed colombia from escape - lab à café.
the roaster describes it as stone fruit and winey with jasmine and floral notes, a combination that suggests both fruit sweetness and lighter aromatic qualities in the cup.
it is grown in huila, colombia, from pink bourbon and bourbon varietals, and processed using the washed method, which removes the fruit before drying and typically produces a cleaner, more transparent cup.
because it is a washed coffee with delicate floral and fruit notes, filter brewing methods such as pour-over are a good fit, as they tend to preserve clarity and keep those lighter aromatics intact.
escape lives up to its name on rue notre dame ouest, where the steady hum of conversation mingles with the satisfying click of ceramic against wood. this isn't the kind of place where baristas recite origin stories like trained parrots. instead, you get the quiet confidence that comes from people who actually understand coffee extraction ratios and aren't afraid to adjust them mid-shift. the 4.8 rating from nearly 200 reviews tells you what locals already know: consistency matters more than instagram angles. watch how regulars order without looking at the menu, how they trust whatever single origin is featured that week. the milk steaming technique here produces foam that doesn't collapse before you've taken three sips. small details. but they're the ones that separate decent coffee from the kind that makes you cross downtown montreal just to get your fix.
