ethiopia coffee
by pontes roastery & coffee bar · copenhagen, denmark
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is cosmic canopy, a natural ethiopia from pontes roastery & coffee bar.
it leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, supported by jasmine and general floral notes throughout. the natural process makes those fruit and floral qualities the dominant experience in the cup.
it's sourced from the guji region of ethiopia and processed using the natural method, meaning the coffee cherries are dried whole before the fruit is removed. this is what drives the pronounced fruity and floral character in the finished cup.
brew methods that give you control over flow rate and temperature, such as pour-over or aeropress, suit this coffee well, as they help preserve the citrus brightness and floral delicacy. keep water temperature slightly below boiling, around 90-93°c, to avoid over-extracting the acidity.
their cortado hits differently than most places in copenhagen. something about the milk texture, the way it holds together without getting too sweet or losing the coffee completely. you'll find pontes roastery & coffee bar on toftegårds plads, where the regulars have been coming back for reasons that become obvious after your first visit. the beans get roasted in-house. that part matters more than it sounds like it would. copenhagen has plenty of coffee shops importing their roasts from elsewhere, but when you taste what pontes does with their own roasting, the difference shows up immediately in your cup. and the space works. not trying to be some instagram backdrop or mimicking the latest design trends. just a place where the coffee takes priority over everything else. which is exactly what you want when you're looking for something beyond the standard copenhagen cafe experience. order the single origin espresso if you want to understand what they're really doing here on toftegårds plads.
