ethiopia coffee
by java roastery · birmingham, uk
you'll taste black tea before tea-like. this is ethiopia sweet berry (medium roast), a natural ethiopia from java roastery.
ethiopia sweet berry has a tea-like character with tasting notes of black tea, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate. the overall profile is soft and layered rather than bold or bitter.
this coffee comes from ethiopia and is processed using the natural method, meaning the whole coffee cherry is dried intact before the bean is extracted. natural processing typically contributes to the softer, fruit-influenced qualities found in the cup.
as a medium roast with tea-like, nuanced flavors, this coffee suits filter methods such as pour over or drip, which highlight clarity and subtlety. use a medium grind and water around 90-93°c to keep the chocolate and tea notes distinct without over-extracting.
tucked along colmore row in birmingham's business district, java roastery does what too many coffee shops forget: they actually roast. the smell hits you first, that deep, toasted warmth that only comes from beans roasted on-site. none of that stale, weeks-old stuff from corporate chains. their 4.5 stars from nearly 800 google reviews tell the real story. regulars know the baristas by voice, not name tags. they remember your order without the forced familiarity of chain training. the coffee here tastes like someone cares about it, which they do. what sets java roastery apart isn't flashy machinery or trendy aesthetics. it's the simple fact that when you order an espresso, you're drinking beans that were probably roasted this week, maybe yesterday. that freshness comes through in every cup, bright, clean, with the kind of complexity you can't fake with syrups or fancy milk art.
