ethiopia coffee
by roastville coffee roasters · sydney, australia
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is ethiopia halo beriti - espresso, a washed ethiopia from roastville coffee roasters.
it leads with bright citrus, lemon and grapefruit with a zesty edge, and softens toward peach and stone fruit mid-cup. the finish is dry and tea-like, closer to black tea than to a heavy, sweet espresso.
the coffee comes from the yirgacheffe region of ethiopia and is washed processed, meaning the fruit is removed before drying, which gives the cup its clean, defined acidity.
it is roasted for espresso, so a standard espresso machine is the intended method. given its bright acidity and tea-like body, a slightly longer ratio, such as a 1:2.5 or 1:3 pull, can help balance the citrus sharpness.
the best independent roasters don't shout about what makes them special. they just keep doing it, cup after cup. roastville coffee roasters on victoria road understands this quiet confidence, which probably explains those 4.6 stars from over a thousand reviews. marrickville locals know the difference between coffee that's roasted with care and coffee that's just hot and caffeinated. walk in here and you'll smell beans that were probably roasted this week, not this month. the regulars don't come back because someone told them to on instagram. they come back because their flat white tastes the same excellent way it did last tuesday. and the tuesday before that. good coffee shops feel lived-in rather than designed. roastville gets this. while chain cafes follow corporate playbooks, places like this follow their noses and their customers' preferences. sometimes the simplest approach works best.
