The wrong island

I am writing this from Ponta Delgada, where the coffee in front of me was roasted about four streets away. Normally that is the whole story.

Saints of Mokha Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Saints of Mokha carries World Barista Championship credentials and sources its Colombian single origins by name from a family farm. Worth knowing before you order.

Paper Wings Café★★ Specialty

Order a pour-over here and the menu names the producer, not just the country, with a choice between a nutty or fruity bean that most cafés this size don't bother offering.

TCC Coffee roasters★★ Specialty

One of Leicester's most established specialty roasters, roasting on-site and still supplying the city's independents. The counter is where you drink at the source, single origins included, with staff who know the range well enough to point you towards the right one.
