Coffee Chronicles: The Coffee Bar Brum – A Mixed Bag of Surprises.☕️

Stopped by this sleek spot on a crisp day, eager to explore their offerings. Here’s the honest tea (or coffee, rather): 🌱 Hand Pour (Honey-Processed Catuai, La Cabra – Denmark) Brewed with V60, this cup was… underwhelming. Notes of faint herbal bitterness and a clean but shallow acidity dominated. Where were the promised flavours of fresh peach, hazelnut, and honey? 🍑❌ 🥛 Lattes That Stole the Show Both made with Costa Rican beans, and both surprisingly expressive: Anaerobic Villa Sarchi First sip = sweet rice wine! 🍶 Then, overripe tropical fruits drying under the sun – almost like date cake 🍞. Uniquely fruity, fermented, and layered. Felt more like a creative specialty drink than a classic latte. The “Chocolaty” Blend Exactly as described: smooth, sweet, and reminiscent of 50% milk chocolate 🍫. Cozy, comforting, and perfect for chilly outdoor seating. The kind of cup you crave in winter instead of hot cocoa! A tale of two experiences – skip the pour-over, embrace the lattes. #UK #Birmingham #Travel#CoffeeReview #BirminghamCafes #LaCabraCoffee #SpecialtyLattes #V60Fail #CostaRicanBeans
