ethiopia + peru + guatemala coffee
by jj bean coffee roasters · burnaby, canada
you'll taste milk chocolate before dark chocolate. this is eastside, a washed ethiopia + peru + guatemala from jj bean coffee roasters.
eastside leads with milk chocolate and dark chocolate, making it a smooth, cocoa-forward cup without a lot of fruit or floral distraction.
the blend combines beans from ethiopia's yirgacheffe region, peru, and indonesia, all processed using the washed method, which strips the fruit before drying and produces a cleaner, more defined flavor in the cup.
as a medium roast, eastside is versatile enough for drip, pour over, or espresso. keep your water temperature in the 9394°c range to balance the chocolate notes without drawing out bitterness.
the thing about JJ Bean on hastings street is how they've earned those 598 reviews the hard way. one cup at a time. this isn't coffee as convenience store pit stop. it's coffee as intention, where each batch gets the attention that separates good from great. the burnaby location hums with the kind of steady energy that comes from knowing your regulars' orders, from understanding that consistency isn't about corporate playbooks but about caring enough to get it right every single morning. you can taste the difference in the first sip. that clean finish that doesn't need sugar to mask anything. the kind of roasting that lets the bean speak without shouting. JJ Bean gets that specialty coffee isn't about complicated ceremony or pretentious vocabulary. it's about respect for the process and the people drinking it.
