nordic edition 02 / shantawene is a limited release ethiopian coffee from the right roast, processed using an anaerobic method. anaerobic fermentation involves sealing the coffee cherries in oxygen-free tanks before drying, which intensifies sweetness and slows the breakdown of sugars. the result here is a cup that leans into honey and honeycomb, with a thick, syrupy sweetness that is a direct product of that processing style. because the flavors are expressive and fruit-forward, this coffee rewards brewing methods that allow clarity and sweetness to come through, such as pour over or aeropress, using water around 90-92°c to avoid muddying the delicate sweetness.

about the right roast

you're on lower clapton road, which isn't the part of hackney that gets written up in travel supplements, and that's probably fine by everyone involved. the right roast sits in a stretch of east london that's still figuring itself out, and there's something honest about a specialty roaster planting itself here rather than in shoreditch where the foot traffic does half the work for you. they roast their own beans, which means what ends up in your cup started as a decision made on this premises, not a bag ordered from a wholesaler. the standing among reviewers is genuinely strong, consistently so. if you're in clapton on a weekday morning, this is where you want to be before the day gets complicated.
