la serrania washed is a decaffeinated colombian coffee from special guests, built on the caturra varietal and processed using the washed method, which strips the fruit before drying and tends to produce clean, defined cup character. the result here sits across a gentle sweetness spectrum, moving from honey and honeycomb through to milk chocolate and darker chocolate. for a decaf it has real substance and clarity. it suits filter brewing well, where the cleaner washed profile can open up fully, though it will also hold its own as an espresso for those avoiding caffeine without wanting to compromise on flavour.

about special guests

you'll notice the room before the coffee: two metal counters, clean and deliberate, one pulling espresso and one devoted entirely to pour-over. paul ross, who won the uk barista championship in 2019 and spent years at origin, kiss the hippo and watchhouse, opened this aybrook street spot in 2022 with a filter menu that runs about twelve single origins at any time. rare panama geshas, experimental lots, coffees pulled from freezer archive for a second run. it's a serious place that doesn't feel serious. ross knows exactly what he's doing here.
