nano challa is a washed ethiopian coffee roasted by nostos coffee. the washed process strips away the fruit before drying, which keeps the cup clean and lets the bean's natural character come through clearly. expect a bright, citrus-driven profile, lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest up front, with stone fruit adding a little body and a black tea, tea-like quality running through the finish. that dry, tannic edge makes it particularly satisfying as a filter brew. pour-over or aeropress suits it well, keeping the acidity crisp and the tea-like finish defined rather than muddied.

about nostos coffee

you'd notice the olive trees first, standing either side of the st james's experience bar like they were always meant to be there. edison shehu opened nostos in nine elms in may 2021, named for the greek idea of homecoming, and that feeling carries through everything. the freeze-distilled flat white is the thing to order: milk frozen for seventeen hours, ice removed, what's left is noticeably sweeter without any added sugar. they tune water to each coffee, roast in-house, and bring in guest roasters worth paying attention to.
