The Green Bean Roastery

40 Culross Rd, off Main Rd, Bryanston, Johannesburg, 2191
basic

your first sip of the green bean roastery's single origin tells you everything about johannesburg's coffee evolution. they're pulling beans from kwazulu-natal farms most roasters ignore, then small-batch roasting them until that telltale crack releases oils that smell like burnt caramel and red earth. the shop on 4th avenue fills with smoke every tuesday morning when they fire up the probat. this is south african coffee without apology, bold enough to make your tongue remember why you started drinking the stuff black.
