hermosa is a honey-processed caturra from costa rica, roasted by mission coffee works. honey processing means the coffee is dried with some of the fruit mucilage left on the bean, which carries natural sugars into the cup and gives this coffee its sweetness. expect honey, honeycomb, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate across the cup, with a texture that tends toward smooth and rounded. it suits filter brewing, where the sweetness and chocolate character come through cleanly, though it also holds up well as an espresso if you enjoy a sweeter, less bitter shot.

about mission coffee works

you're on grosvenor way, e5, which isn't the kind of street that gets much foot traffic from tourists or people who just wandered over from somewhere else. hackney wick sits close, clapton too, and this part of london has its own pace, its own logic. mission coffee works operates out of unit 4, a roastery address rather than a high street one, and that detail matters: the coffee is being made here, not just served. regulars in this corner of the city have found it and kept coming back, which is a harder thing to sustain than a good opening week. if you're making the trip out to e5, don't rush. come on a weekday morning, when the street is quieter, and get whatever's on the filter bar.
