costa rica coffee
by redroaster st james's street · brighton, uk
you'll taste caramel before milk chocolate. this is two rivers – costa rica, a washed costa rica from redroaster st james's street.
it leads with caramel sweetness and milk chocolate softness, with a darker chocolate note underneath. the washed process keeps the cup clean, so those flavours come through without fruity or fermented complexity.
it is grown in costa rica and processed using the washed method, meaning the fruit is removed from the bean before drying, which preserves a clean, direct expression of the bean's flavour.
filter brewing or a cafetière will highlight the caramel and milk chocolate notes clearly, while pulling it as espresso will emphasise the darker chocolate side of the cup.
down st james's street in kemptown, redroaster proves that brighton's coffee scene runs deeper than the tourist trail. this isn't another chain pumping out identical drinks. real care happens here. you can taste it in each cup, feel it in the way steam rises from properly extracted shots. the 4.4-star rating from nearly 1,300 reviews tells only part of the story. regulars don't just come for caffeine. they come because someone here actually knows what they're doing with beans. the difference shows immediately when you take that first sip. proper extraction. balanced flavor. none of that burnt bitterness that passes for coffee elsewhere. specialty coffee means something specific here. not marketing speak, but actual attention to origin, roast profiles, brewing methods. the kind of place where baristas understand the science behind what they're making. where conversations happen over counters sticky with the honest work of making hundreds of drinks daily. brighton's got plenty of coffee shops. few have earned this level of trust.
