ethiopia + peru + guatemala coffee
by jj bean coffee roasters · vancouver, canada
you'll taste milk chocolate before dark chocolate. this is eastside, a washed ethiopia + peru + guatemala from jj bean coffee roasters.
eastside is built around chocolate, offering both the creamier sweetness of milk chocolate and the deeper, slightly bitter edge of dark chocolate in the same cup.
eastside is a blend sourcing beans from ethiopia's yirgacheffe region, peru, and indonesia, with the yirgacheffe portion processed using the washed method, which strips the fruit before drying to produce a cleaner flavour profile.
as a medium roast, eastside is forgiving and works across most brew methods, though drip or pour-over will keep the chocolate notes clear and balanced without adding unwanted heaviness.
some roasters chase trends. jj bean just makes excellent coffee. the commercial drive location has that lived-in feel where baristas know your order by the third visit, steam wand hissing as they pull shots with the kind of attention chains abandoned years ago. you can taste the difference, beans roasted in small batches, each cup carrying the weight of someone who actually cares about what they're doing. the 4.3 rating from over 1,500 reviews tells the story: this isn't flash or instagram appeal. it's the kind of place where your morning ritual feels sacred, where the smell of fresh grounds hits you before you even open the door. vancouver has plenty of coffee options, but regulars keep coming back here because good coffee isn't complicated. it just requires giving a damn.
