Four Stones Coffee Roasters Samseong

you're on teheran-ro 103-gil, where the gangnam district's tech energy meets something quieter. four stones coffee roasters sits among the office buildings and startup spaces, but this isn't corporate coffee. they roast their own beans here, which means the smell changes throughout the day depending on what's in the roaster. the locals have figured this out. you'll see the same faces coming back, ordering with the kind of shorthand that develops between people who share good coffee regularly. this isn't about being trendy or fitting into gangnam's polished image. it's about doing one thing well in a neighborhood that moves fast. the espresso holds up against seoul's best shops, and their pour-overs showcase whatever single origins they're working with that week. when the afternoon rush from nearby offices hits around 3 pm, the line forms quickly.
